Printing

Flexographic Printing

Flexographic printing uses flexible printing plates made of rubber or plastic.

 

The inked plates, with a slightly raised image, are rotated on a cylinder which transfers the image to the substrate.

 

This process uses fast-drying inks, high-speed, prints on a variety of absorbant and non-absorbant materials, and can print continuous patterns.

 

We have the ability to print with water based or solvent inks.
