Premium 3D finishing in packaging production

Packaging technologies are improving with the advent of innovative equipment and the release of new materials. Exclusive premium finishes are trending now; they are used by the world's leading brands that follow modern digital technologies, printing, and fashion.

SM Custom packaging is also providing wholesale custom packaging.

JET varnish 3D digital printing equipment capabilities

Professional digital equipment of the new generation allows you to perform unique post-printing processing. Features and benefits of premium packaging technology:

  • Unlimited design possibilities - you can use lines of different thickness, complex convex images.
  • The possibility of using various decorative materials - design papers with a special coating, laminated surfaces, and finishing materials - partial varnishing, foil, and their combinations.
  • After applying 3D varnishing and 3D foiling on the liner, the accuracy and high quality of the print are preserved; the convex elements do not wear off, do not fade, and do not peel off.
  • High performance of digital equipment - preparatory and finishing operations is minimized, and most importantly, there is no need for clichés, make-ready operations, and embossing.

Another vital advantage of the new technology is applying images to future objects of complex configuration, various curvilinear shapes, patterns, and fonts - a creative revelry for designers. This is especially important for those companies that order cardboard boxes of individual shapes and sizes and use designer packaging for luxury goods.

Premium finish features

A complete image is printed in one or several passes, including when using several types of foil. The base can be a laminated surface: matte or with a corduroy texture (Soft Touch). The decorated print looks solid when combined with a paper base and a premium 3D finish, which creates a visually and tactilely pleasing texture to the product.

Print options:

  • Printed sheet size - 350x1000 mm;
  • Paper weight 135-350 g / m2;
  • Minimum line thickness - 0.15 mm;
  • Line thickness for foil - from 4 pix;
  • Line thickness for varnish - from 3 pix;
  • Text height - up to 7-8 pt.
  • Alignment accuracy - 0.3 mm;
  • Graphics resolution - 360 dpi and higher.

Selective varnishing is possible, which is an alternative to UV varnishing. In addition, 3D varnishing can replace hot foil stamping.

Types of foil and varnish

The new technology uses 3D foil that outperforms conventional embossing. The foil layer is applied to the varnish layer under the prepared file. The varnish level can be adjusted, due to which the foil height level is achieved, and a 3D volumetric effect is obtained. This finish is used to create complex glossy images and lettering.

SM Custom packaging is providing the best custom packaging for small business.

The equipment allows you to work with more than ten colors of metalized foil and obtain an image with different reflectivity. It can be used both separately and in various combinations of matte, glossy and holographic foils. The most popular foil colors among elite brands are gold, silver, red, blue, green, pink, orange and their combinations.

3D varnish, which has become a modern alternative to UV varnish, has a particular structure that allows it to be applied to any image area: both point wise and along thin contours, and on the entire region.

Types of papers

The new technology for the production of packaging allows the use of paper of different densities and very different texture of the surface of the base material.

The most requested options:

  • Pure cellulose white cardboard.
  • Top-quality white coated paper.
  • Tinted latex-coated paper.
  • Colored paper with one-sided latex coating.
  • Colored paper with double-sided latex coating.

In addition, the technology is compatible with some types of design papers, from which, for example, gift wrapping for alcohol, which received rave reviews from experts from different countries at the international exhibition Ropak, can be made.

Let's summarize

Post-printing with JET varnish 3D equipment offers tremendous possibilities for customizing product packaging. An individual, non-stereotyped design that stands out from the competition helps to increase brand and specific product awareness. Superior image quality matches the high-end product's reputation and appeals to high-income target audiences.

SM Custom packaging is providing custom packaging boxes with logo.

Until recently, only the world's leading manufacturers of luxury goods could afford such packaging. However, innovative technology has made it more affordable for mid-range products. You can order premium packaging design at SM Custom Packaging.
