Flexographic Print

Flexographic, or often referred to as flexo, is a process which utilizes a flexible relief plate that can be used for printing on almost any type of substrate. The process is fast, consistent, and the print quality is high. This widely used technology produces photo-realistic images, with a competitive cost. Commonly used for printing on the non-porous substrates required for various types of food packaging, this process is also well suited for printing large areas of solid color.

Applications: Drink cups, round containers, non-round containers, lids

Heat Transfer Labels

Heat transfer labeling is great for sharp, bright colors and high-quality photographic images. Metallic, fluorescent, pearlescent, and thermochromatic inks are available in matte and gloss finishes.

Applications:  Round containers, non-round containers

Screen Printing

Screen printing is a technique where a squeegee forces ink through a mesh/metal “screen” stencil creating an image on a substrate.

Applications:  Bottles, laminate tubes, extruded tubes, pressure sensitive labels

Dry Offset Printing

The Dry Offset Printing process provides the most efficient method for high speed, large volume printing of multi-colored line copy, half-tones and full process art on preformed plastic parts. This option is widely used and can be completed at very high speeds.

Applications:  Round containers, lids, drink cups, extruded tubes, jars, closures

Shrink Sleeves

Shrink sleeves provide a good option for products that do not allow for printing and also offer a full-length, 360 degree decoration. Shrink sleeves are normally glossy, but they can also be matte or textured. High definition graphics are available in special metallic and thermochromatic inks.

Applications:  Round containers, non-round containers

Hot Stamping

Hot stamping is a dry printing process in which a metallic or color pigment is transferred from a roll of foil to the package by way of heat and pressure. Hot stamped bands, logos or text can be used to give your product a unique, upscale appearance.

Applications:  Closures, laminate tubes, overcaps, extruded tubes
