The tactile printing market in North America is expected to grow from US$ 375.73 million in 2021 to US$ 623.54 million by 2028; it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 7.5% from 2021 to 2028.
The US, Canada, and Mexico are major economies in North America. Rising need for tactile graphics for better accessibility to visually impaired is the major factor driving the North America tactile printing market. Employers at small and medium-sized enterprises provide employment opportunities to a diverse range of candidates, accommodating physically disabled contenders in the workforce. Consequently, sectors such as marketing, business management and administration, human services, health science, and agriculture are extensively employing visually impaired aspirants at a large scale. Several other sectors employing visually impaired individuals include non-profit organizations; local, state, and federal governments; and self-employed entrepreneurs. Legislative changes and civil right laws also positively impact the career opportunities of visually impaired individuals. Therefore, tactile signage boards and maps are in high demand to assist these people at workplaces. Tactile graphics are also helping provide education to visually impaired populations as they may get excluded from educational, practical, and recreational information. Therefore, as per the tactile printing industry professionals, proficiency, and abundant availability of tactile graphics, coupled with advancements in related technologies, could more opportunities to visually disabled individuals to succeed in their desired fields. As a result, tactile graphs, illustrations, and drawings are being incorporated in books published for these people. The tactile printing technology is also being used for printing graphics on products such as games, Braille wristbands, Braille musical cards, pins, switches, visiting cards, location labels, stickers (Braille tactile custom stickers), greeting cards, recorders, calculators, and Braille calendars, which is contributing to the market growth. North America is one of the key regions in terms of adoption and development of new technologies due to favorable government policies that boost innovation and strengthen the infrastructure capabilities. Hence, any impact on the growth of industrial and commercial sectors directly affects the economic growth of the region. Presently, the US is the one of the world’s most affected country due to COVID-19 outbreak. The printing, labeling, and packaging industries in the country have been witnessing negative impact due to the shortage of raw materials and demand disruptions. Also, various industries procure large quantities of raw materials from India and China, and the manufacturing sectors in these countries have shut down or scaled down their operations as a part of efforts to contain the COVID-19 spread. On the other hand, the demand for packaging is increasing owing to demand for more take-out deliveries, online orders, groceries, sanitary products, facial masks, and FMCG. Companies in North America are also opening to improve supply chain and critical supply of several critical products and services. However, the imposition of lockdown by several state governments has resulted in a labor shortage in the food &beverages, pharmaceuticals, medical, and chemicals industries, among others. Hence, suspension of operations and travel bans has led to reduction in companies’ operations across the tactile printing value chain. All these factors impacted the tactile market growth in early 2021 in a negative manner and are anticipated to have some effect in coming few quarters also. However, with continuous efforts by companies and industries to improve supply chains and daily business operations, the market anticipated to grow at a steady pace over the forecast period from 2021 to 2028.
With the new features and technologies, vendors can attract new customers and expand their footprints in emerging markets. This factor is likely to drive the North America tactile printing market. The North America tactile printing market is expected to grow at a good CAGR during the forecast period.

Below is the breakup of our primary respondents by company, designation, and region:
Once we receive the confirmation from primary research sources or primary respondents, we finalize the base year market estimation and forecast the data as per the macroeconomic and microeconomic factors assessed during data collection.
- Data Analysis:
Once data is validated through both secondary as well as primary respondents, we finalize the market estimations by hypothesis formulation and factor analysis at regional and country level.
- 3.1 Macro-Economic Factor Analysis:
We analyse macroeconomic indicators such the gross domestic product (GDP), increase in the demand for goods and services across industries, technological advancement, regional economic growth, governmental policies, the influence of COVID-19, PEST analysis, and other aspects. This analysis aids in setting benchmarks for various nations/regions and approximating market splits. Additionally, the general trend of the aforementioned components aid in determining the market's development possibilities.

Various factors that are especially aligned to the country are taken into account to determine the market size for a certain area and country, including the presence of vendors, such as headquarters and offices, the country's GDP, demand patterns, and industry growth. To comprehend the market dynamics for the nation, a number of growth variables, inhibitors, application areas, and current market trends are researched. The aforementioned elements aid in determining the country's overall market's growth potential.
- 3.3 Company Profile:
The “Table of Contents” is formulated by listing and analyzing more than 25 - 30 companies operating in the market ecosystem across geographies. However, we profile only 10 companies as a standard practice in our syndicate reports. These 10 companies comprise leading, emerging, and regional players. Nonetheless, our analysis is not restricted to the 10 listed companies, we also analyze other companies present in the market to develop a holistic view and understand the prevailing trends. The “Company Profiles” section in the report covers key facts, business description, products & services, financial information, SWOT analysis, and key developments. The financial information presented is extracted from the annual reports and official documents of the publicly listed companies. Upon collecting the information for the sections of respective companies, we verify them via various primary sources and then compile the data in respective company profiles. The company level information helps us in deriving the base number as well as in forecasting the market size.
- 3.4 Developing Base Number:
Aggregation of sales statistics (2020-2022) and macro-economic factor, and other secondary and primary research insights are utilized to arrive at base number and related market shares for 2022. The data gaps are identified in this step and relevant market data is analyzed, collected from paid primary interviews or databases. On finalizing the base year market size, forecasts are developed on the basis of macro-economic, industry and market growth factors and company level analysis.
- Data Triangulation and Final Review:
The market findings and base year market size calculations are validated from supply as well as demand side. Demand side validations are based on macro-economic factor analysis and benchmarks for respective regions and countries. In case of supply side validations, revenues of major companies are estimated (in case not available) based on industry benchmark, approximate number of employees, product portfolio, and primary interviews revenues are gathered. Further revenue from target product/service segment is assessed to avoid overshooting of market statistics. In case of heavy deviations between supply and demand side values, all thes steps are repeated to achieve synchronization.
We follow an iterative model, wherein we share our research findings with Subject Matter Experts (SME’s) and Key Opinion Leaders (KOLs) until consensus view of the market is not formulated – this model negates any drastic deviation in the opinions of experts. Only validated and universally acceptable research findings are quoted in our reports.
We have important check points that we use to validate our research findings – which we call – data triangulation, where we validate the information, we generate from secondary sources with primary interviews and then we re-validate with our internal data bases and Subject matter experts. This comprehensive model enables us to deliver high quality, reliable data in shortest possible time.
