Flexographic Printing
When your project demands speed, volume, and exceptional cost-effectiveness, our industrial flexographic printing service is the definitive solution. Manufactured in-house at our UK facility, flexo is the most versatile and efficient method for producing high-quality labels, tickets, and tags in large quantities.
Flexographic labels are a cornerstone of modern packaging and marketing, widely used across retail, food and beverage, logistics, and industrial sectors due to their durability and superior economy on long print runs.
Why Choose Flexographic Printing?
If you require high volumes of labels (e.g., tens of thousands or millions), flexo provides unparalleled value.
- Superior Economy on Long Runs: Flexo presses operate at significantly higher line speeds than digital alternatives, drastically reducing the cost-per-label/tag unit and ensuring a rapid return on investment.
- Substrate Versatility: We can print onto an extensive array of materials—from standard papers and films (PP, PE, Vinyl) to specialist substrates like silver foil and textured stocks—offering the finish you require.
- In-Line Finishing Integration: Flexo allows for sophisticated combination printing in a single pass. This streamlines production and provides extensive design flexibility, allowing us to add eye-catching finishes like cold foiling and varnishing without secondary processes.
Advanced Finishing Options and Capabilities
Our investment in state-of-the-art machinery ensures we can achieve virtually any aesthetic or functional requirement for your application.
Our four flexographic presses offer advanced capabilities, including:
- Colour Flexibility: Print up to eight colours in a single pass, achieving precise brand colour matching and complex designs.
- Ink Systems: Utilise robust UV-cured or water-based ink systems, designed for durability and resistance to environmental factors.
- Protective Finishes: Enhance longevity and appearance with finishes such as gloss/matt/satin/textured varnishes and protective gloss/matt/UV resistant laminates.
- Special Effects: Incorporate premium cold foiling for metallic accents or cast & cure to elevate your product’s shelf appeal.
- Specialised Printing: Our presses are fitted with roll turnover bars, allowing for unique applications like double-sided printing e.g., promotional text on the adhesive side, spot deadening the adhesive or printing on the backing.
- Maximum Width: We can accommodate print widths up to 350mm.
