Digital labels are an excellent choice for businesses that need to print small quantities that require a short lead time.
DIGITAL: THE FUTURE OF PRINT.
Digital printing has revolutionised the printing industry, offering numerous advantages over traditional printing methods. One of its key benefits is cost-effectiveness on small quantities.
With no setup costs involved, businesses can print only the required amount of materials, reducing expenses and eliminating excess inventory.
Additionally, digital printing ensures a quick turnaround time, as there is no need for the time-consuming setup processes.
Furthermore, digital printing provides unparalleled design flexibility, enabling easy modifications and customisation of artwork and designs.
With high-quality output, sharp images, vibrant colours, and fine details, digital printing ensures professional looking products every time.
Overall, digital printing offers cost-effectiveness and speed making it a preferred choice for businesses of all sizes.
THE ADVANTAGES OF DIGITAL PRINTING
Digital printing provides exceptional print quality and color accuracy. The advanced technology used in digital printing ensures sharp and vibrant results, closely matching the original digital files. This makes it an excellent choice for producing high-resolution images, intricate designs, and detailed graphics.
Additionally, digital printing is more environmentally friendly compared to traditional printing methods. It eliminates the need for chemicals and excessive material waste associated with screen printing, and it allows for on-demand printing, reducing excess inventory and minimising the carbon footprint.
Quick Turnaround
Digital printing allows for faster production times compared to traditional methods like silk screen printing. Digital printing eliminates the need for creating plates or screens, which can significantly reduce setup time.
High Print Quality
Digital printing technology has advanced significantly, delivering high-resolution prints with excellent colour accuracy and detail. Modern digital printers can reproduce intricate designs and vibrant colours.
Cost Effective
Since there are no setup costs involved, digital printing is more cost-effective for short print runs. It eliminates the need for large quantity requirements, making it suitable for on-demand or low-volume printing.
Variable Data Printing
Digital printing enables personalised printing by allowing customisation of each printed piece. This is particularly useful for asset management or personalised labels using barcodes, QR codes or serial numbering.
A CHOICE OF UV OR SOLVENT PRINTING
UV PRINTING
UV printing and solvent printing are two popular techniques in the printing industry, each with its own unique advantages. UV printing utilizes ultraviolet light to cure or dry ink instantly, resulting in fast production and reduced drying time. This process allows for printing on a wide range of substrates, including rigid materials like glass, metal, and plastic. UV inks are also highly durable, resistant to fading and scratching, making them suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications. Additionally, UV printing offers vibrant colours and excellent print quality, capturing intricate details with precision.
SOLVENT PRINTING
Solvent printing employs solvent-based inks that contain pigments dissolved in a solvent carrier. This technique is particularly effective for large-format printing and is known for its durability and resistance to outdoor elements. Solvent inks penetrate into the substrate, creating long-lasting prints that are resistant to water, UV rays, and abrasion. Solvent printers are versatile and can handle a wide range of materials, including vinyl, and banner materials. They are also known for their fast printing speeds, making them suitable for high-volume production.
MATERIALS
Material choice is a critical step in the design process. The material used for a product will have a significant impact on its performance, cost, and sustainability. There are many factors to consider when choosing a material, including the application, the environment, the budget, and the desired aesthetic.

HAVE YOU CONSIDERED SCREEN PRINTING?
The main advantage of screen printing is that it is a cost-effective method for printing large quantities of items. The initial setup cost for screen printing can be high, but the cost per unit decreases as the number of items printed increases. The ink used in screen printing is thick and durable, which makes the prints resistant to fading and wear.
Screen printing is also a versatile printing method that can be used to create a variety of designs.
