FAQs

Printed cardboard packaging left on a doorsetp

What type of printing is available for cardboard boxes?

There are several printing options for cardboard boxes. These range from basic screen printing to flexographic printing that can be one to four colours. Digital printing allows for full-colour photographic images to be printed directly on the box’s surface. Finally, litho lamination sees paper printed and then laminated to the cardboard material. The most suitable method is determined by your budget, the finish you require, and the volume of boxes you need.

Should I consider printing transit or industrial packaging?

For relatively little additional cost, simple branding can make even your transit and industrial packaging work harder for your business. Benefits could be as simple as logos displaying your company name and branding as they pass through the supply chains or including instructions, handling symbols, and recycling logos.

Does printing affect the recyclability of cardboard boxes?

Printing your corrugated packaging does not affect the material’s recyclability at the end of its life. During the recycling process, inks are leached from the pulp and disposed of safely.

Can my business' brand colours be accurately matched?

The vast majority of printing methods allow for accurate reproduction of your brand colours, including Pantones, CMYK references, or other spot colours. This consistency is essential for your packaging’s appearance, which can help foster brand recognition and loyalty.

Can both the inside and outside of my boxes be printed?

It is possible to print both the interior and exterior surfaces of your packaging. This has been used to great effect with many eCommerce packs, where the outside contains simple, functional print, while the inside is bright, fully branded, and with a raft of information and graphics.
