“…The first determinant is factor conditions, which include human resources, raw materials, technology and innovation, physical infrastructure, and information infrastructure. Various studies such as (Moreira et al, 2018), (Varma & Lal, 2019) and (Guzikova, 2019) have determined that these factors affect the productivity and cost of the industry. In terms of human resources, the quality of education and training is important in producing skilled labour (Mundschenk, Martin;Drexl, 2005) (Singla, 2017).…”

Malaysia's burgeoning printing industry, while showcasing potential, grapples with challenges that constrain its growth and global reach, underscoring the need for a deep and structured assessment. This pivotal study is designed to unpack the competitiveness of the Malaysian printing sector within the vast expanse of the global market, with a spotlight on the commercial printing segment. It revolves around the central inquiry: "Which critical factors mold the competitiveness of Malaysia's printing industry, and how can insights from Porter's Competitive Advantage of Nations (CAN) model illuminate them?" Anchored in the renowned Porter's CAN model, the research undertakes a multifaceted analysis of industry pillars, including intricate demand patterns, supply chain dynamics, prevailing competition, and the overarching influence of government directives. Data, meticulously sourced from 2015-2019 through national agencies and global institutions, forms the bedrock of this systemic examination. The study reveals that Malaysia stands fortified by assets like adept labor, contemporary infrastructure, and cost-effective energy provisions. Yet, it's not devoid of challenges, notably, the lag in embracing cuttingedge production tech and the absence of razor-sharp competitive strategies. However, the surge in both domestic and international demand sketches a promising trajectory. Beyond validating the robustness of the CAN model, the study weaves a tapestry of insights for industry stakeholders. It underscores the pivotal role of agile government interventions and the pressing mandate to integrate digital innovations. The findings beckon a targeted strategy to navigate and neutralize identified pitfalls, amplifying the industry's global resonance. While the study carves a panoramic landscape, its primary reliance on secondary datasets is its Achilles' heel. Still, it emerges as an invaluable compass for industry stakeholders, directing strategic investments and policy recalibrations to elevate the global stature of Malaysia's printing industry.

It is expected that the global value across all print and printed packaging will reach $843 billion in 2026. This is increasing after the pandemic-induced negative disruption in 2020. The packaging market has a growing share in it [1]. In Industry 4.0; the manpower, machinery, and printing processes are in the network digitally [2]. Accurate and precise data is controlling the production and digital twins are an important tool for increased overall efficiency and sustainability. Digital twins are connected from the sensors to the cloud-based software which can be accessed by all the stakeholders such as manufacturers, intermediate supply chain managers, wholesale clients, and end-use customers. Therefore, digital twins are an important part of Industry 4.0. In the print & packaging industry, due to increased automation, the investments in plant and machinery are increasing but customers expect cost reductions with an emphasis on quality and sustainability measures. The order quantities are reducing and demand for short-run customized products is increasing. The customers expect the printing companies to follow international standards diligently. There are several benefits of digital twins in the printing and packaging industry which result in saving time, manpower, cost and thus reducing the adverse impact on the environment in terms of effluents, use of power etc. thus increasing overall equipment efficiency and sustainability.
