The Advantages of Printed Box Packaging
By incorporating custom printed boxes and packaging in your route to market, the end clients’ “unboxing experience” can be made more positive and memorable. Furthermore, printing your boxes appropriately and effectively, represents a huge marketing opportunity, giving a chance for you to build greater consumer brand awareness combined with increased loyalty.
We offer many printing techniques and our print capabilities cover all types of packaging and levels of client budget. Depending on the material and volume, a range of additional features can be added when printing — including foil blocking, spot UV varnishes, embossing/debossing and matt or gloss over lamination.
Lithographic Custom Printed Boxes
This very versatile printing process can be used on many different types of cardboard and board materials, producing a premium looking luxury, custom printed box. The print quality achievable is exceptional and photographic holding fine details or tones.
Flexographic Custom Printed Boxes
With low set-up and running costs, Flexographic printing is a very cost-effective and popular way to customise your corrugated packaging. Print options available include using from one to four colours. The print quality is not as superior as lithographic print and this is reflected in the price.
Silk Screen Custom Printed Boxes
A traditional printing style that produces sharp, clean text and images. Silk Screen printing is mainly used to make custom printed boxes where bold and distinct branding is required. The level of image quality achievable lies somewhere between lithographic and flexographic print but offers great advantages on smaller volumes and simple one, two or three colour graphics. You can also utilise special inks such as glitter or glow in the dark and specialist finishes such as pearlescent varnishes.
Digitally Printed Custom Boxes
With no start-up costs, the opportunity to personalise each packaging piece and the chance of speeding your product to market, the digital printing style of custom printed boxes is becoming increasingly more popular. It can be used on a variety of materials including folding boxboards, display boards, PVC and corrugated. It also offers a level of print quality close to that produced using lithographic print.
