Report Highlights
Tattoo Inks Market - Overview
Tattoo ink is a product that is used to make a tattoo. It generally comprises pigments, a dissolvent, additives, and contaminants. Pigments are micro- or nano-particulate elements, typically produced from a single chemical substance. A pigment imparts color to the tattoo ink. A dissolvent, also called a dispergent, is the medium in which pigments are dissolved. The dissolvent maintains the liquid consistency of the tattoo ink. Additives are chemical substances added to the tattoo ink and their purpose is to preserve the consistency of the tattoo ink.
In terms of type, the global tattoo inks market has been divided into black & gray tattoo inks and colored tattoo inks. The colored tattoo inks segment has been sub-divided into red, violet, and blue & purple. The black & gray tattoo inks segment accounted for a leading share of the global tattoo inks market in 2017. The segment is likely to remain highly lucrative during the forecast period, as most tattoo artists prefer black-only tattoos over colored tattoos. Some tattooists are specialized only in black tattoos.
Based on pigment, the global tattoo inks market has been classified into mineral, organic, and others. The others segment includes biological pigments, inorganic pigments, azo pigments, and earth pigments. The organic segment accounted for a leading share of the global tattoo inks market in 2017. The segment is anticipated to expand at a moderate pace during the forecast period, due to advantages of organic pigments over mineral and other pigments. These include insolubility, photo-stability, and chemical resistance. Hence, organic pigments are preferred in tattoo ink applications.
Based on region, the global tattoo inks market has been classified into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Middle East & Africa, and Latin America. In terms of value and volume, North America was a leading region of the global market in 2017. Sales of tattoo inks were high in North America in 2017, primarily due to increase in the demand for tattoos among youngsters in the region. However, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration plans to impose new rules on tattoo ink ingredients. This is estimated to hamper the tattoo inks market in North America during the forecast period. Asia Pacific is likely to be the rapidly expanding market for tattoo inks during the forecast period, owing to the rising popularity of tattoos among growing population of youngsters. Moreover, technological advancements in tattooing machines and needles in the region is another major factor driving the tattoo inks market in Asia Pacific. Middle East & Africa and Latin America accounted for a low share of the global market, in terms of demand, in 2017. However, these regions are projected to create lucrative opportunities for manufacturers of tattoo inks in the next few years.
