Field experts since 1973

Our expertise, knowledge and education enable us to make the best decisions
regarding the design and material used for your packaging. Our advanced technology in pre-press printing and finishing operations, allow us to have limitless inspiration and deliver you innovative and impressive results.

We follow a specific process in order to manage and maintain our high-quality production.

Our Process

Research - Functionality - Budget - Environmental Impact

We take into consideration the intended use of the packaging. Whether it’s for pharmaceutical use, (frozen) food, drinks, cosmetics, etc., we decide for the packaging’s material most suitable for the product. This procedure is followed by the artwork and die-cut preparation and processing.

Sampling & Proofing

We are able to create a prototype using a cardboard that has the same weight as the material intended to be used for a certain project. This gives us the advantage to test whether the packaging is indeed appropriate or needs alterations. Meanwhile, we prepare a contract proof following the European standards of printing, for customers approval.

Plate Production

We use Computer To Plate (CTP) system -thermal plate technology- that precisely breaks down colours and details, elevating the artwork’s accuracy. Plates stay firmly in place, increasing sharpness, detail and resolution in print quality. In addition to that, plates are produced in less time, are more consistent and at a lower cost.

Offset Printing

With our Heidelberg CD, a versatile straight-printing press, equipped with innovative technology, which provides flexible processing of a large variety of jobs and materials, we are in the advantageous position to offer the best possible outcome. It achieves constantly high print quality at speeds of up to 15,000 sheets/hour with online quality control. Its strengths are obvious in the production of specialized packaging as well as UV and water-based coating applications. Our Heidelberg Speedmaster 74 2-color allows us to provide you with high quality perfecting printing of pharmaceutical insert leaflets.

Added value

Spot UV

Another great way to add dimension. Apply it only to certain locations highlighting those spots on your artwork or with dual effect for an impressive decorative finish that adds value to your product.

Cold Foil

Cold foils create true metallic effects using standard printing plates, which are
cheaper and can be made in a few minutes. More importantly for the designer,
gradients and halftone images can be produced with this method. It’s a specialized process that adds elegance and distinction to your project. It can be combined with the embossing technique to create a metallic design in relief.

Leaflets / Inserts

Additionally, our folding machines are applicable for small formats and miniature folding processes, such as pharmaceutical insert leaflets.

Die Cutting

With an output of 8.000 sheets per hour and short set-up time, we can achieve all dead-lines, with high accuracy and absolute cutting precision. Braille embossing can be done simultaneously with the die-cutting process, achieving perfectly the desirable dot height.

Folding & Gluing

Our folding and gluing machines are equipped with quality control systems and
provide extreme accuracy. With embedded barcode sensors & glue detectors, the
chance for error is almost eliminated.
The operation of these machines also formulate Braille applications and they enable reliable and efficient processing of up to 100.000 boxes an hour. Online inspection reads and detects the appearance and position of braille text. Faulty boxes are automatically ejected.

Braille system

A system of printing and reading for the blind, which represents letters and numbers by combinations of six dots. A solution that covers all the demands of modern pharmaceutical packaging production.
