Digital printing on the bags

The process of digital printing on the bags offers the advantage of a minimum quantity of 500 units and a delivery time of up to 10 days. For this process the layout has to be planned, because the printing will only take place after the bags have been produced. This process can only print paper bags.

Digital printing on the laminate

With digital printing on the material prior to bag production, we can offer this process on both paper and plastic without limitations and with the entire area of the bag printable.The minimum quantity is 1000 bags per Layout.

Rotogravure printing

The rotogravure printing process offers the best possible quality and up to 10 different colors can be used. This process costs significantly less than the digital process, but demands minimum quantities from 5000 units and there is also the need for printing cylinders for each color used, which despite its initial cost are not charged in future productions (as long as a new production is made within 2 years) and that there is no change in the layout. This is the best option for companies that demand larger quantities of packaging.

 

Digital printing and rotogravure printing: what is it and what are the differences and advantages of the two techniques?

Rotogravure (or gravure for short) is a rotogravure printing process in which the image is engraved on a metal cylinder. It works like offset and flexo printing with a rotary press. Rotogravure, which was once used primarily for newspaper photos, is still used today for commercial printing of magazines, postcards, corrugated board, foil and other product packaging. 

Digital printing is a process where a digital image is printed directly from the computer without the need/cost of printing cylinders. It is usually for small quantities where customers need many different designs. 

 

How to choose the right printing technique?

The main difference between digital printing and gravure printing is the method by which the image is applied to the material.   

In general, it can be said that digital printing is the best solution for small quantities where the customer needs many different designs. This way, there is no initial cost for the printing cylinders, which are a high initial cost for many different layouts in gravure printing. However, the cost per piece is higher than rotogravure due to the small quantity and digital process. 

We recommend rotogravure for customers who want to produce at least 5,000 pieces and do not have many different layouts. This way, the cost per piece is lower and the additional cost for the impression cylinders is only for the first order. This makes repeats cheaper than digital printing.
