Print on trade packaging has a job to do: identify the brand, carry the handling marks and make the SKU recognisable on the shelf or in the warehouse. Our flexographic process does that job consistently, at volume, without adding a separate stage to production.
Up to two colours, inline
Our press prints up to two colours directly onto the corrugated sheet as it enters the conversion line. Because print is inline, a branded pack takes no longer to make than a plain one and carries no separate handling cost.
Colour matching
We match supplied Pantone references and maintain that match across repeat runs, so a distributor’s own-brand range or an end customer’s branded shipper looks the same on every delivery. Where print sits on kraft board we advise on the combination that gets closest to the target colour.
Inks
All print uses water-based flexographic inks, which supports responsible manufacturing and the sustainability targets our customers report against.
What suits flexo
Flexographic print on corrugated is ideal for solid colour, line work and text. Fine halftones and photographic images are not a good fit for the process or the board, and we will say so at design stage.
