Printing Technologies
1. Gravure Printing
- Produces rich colors and strong three-dimensional effects.
- Offers the highest print quality among all color box printing methods.
- Stable quality and long-lasting printing plates, making it suitable for mass production.
- Can print on extremely thin materials, such as paper below 80g.
- However, gravure printing is complex and costly.
- Uses benzene-based inks, which are harmful to the environment.
- With the increasing demand for low-cost, small-batch printing, gravure printing has been losing market share.
2. Offset Printing
- Mainly used for paper-based materials.
- Flexible format – Sheet-fed offset printing machines can accommodate different paper sizes.
- Continuous technological improvements in offset printing machines.
- After modifications, offset printers can print on corrugated boards.
- UV drying units can be added for UV print effects.
3. Flexographic Printing
- Simple equipment structure, making it easy to integrate into a production line.
- Compared to gravure and offset printing machines, flexographic machines are the simplest and most affordable.
- Requires less investment for packaging companies.
- Easy operation and maintenance.
- Commonly integrated with varnishing, die-cutting, creasing, perforating, and windowing processes to enhance production efficiency.
- Can print on almost all substrates, especially corrugated packaging.
- Uses water-based inks, which are non-toxic and environmentally friendly, making flexographic printing ideal for sustainable packaging.
