Flexographic Printing

Our 4 colour printing machine boasts up to date technology with flexibility in its setting process to manufacture small as well as large products from short to large runs and is capable of producing slotted and Die-Cut corrugated cartons.

This process uses water-based inks, and uses a flexible printing plate made from TDR Polymer with a Mellonex backing.

The advantage of using this method of printing is that print can be applied directly to the surface of the corrugated board which suits smaller production runs as opposed to lithographic printing where print is applied to reel of laminate and then glued to the paper before being made into corrugated board.
