PRINTING METHODS
 Digital
Using a fast, high resolution laser printer we can produce vibrant and clear digital prints. Ideal for low quantities as there is no setup cost, and prints are ready within seconds. Can print onto various materials up to SRA3 size.
Lithographic
Done by transferring ink from the impression cylinder to the printed sheet. This process is suitable for printing multicolour photos and artwork on papers.
Thermography
Raised printing, less expensive than engraving. Uses special powder that’s adhered to any colour ink. Mainly used for stationery products.
Silk-Screen
Also known as “screening”. Ink is forced through a screen following a stencil pattern. Used for ring binders, t-shirts, bumper stickers, billboards, etc.
Flexography
Special type of printing for packaging products. The plates used are flexible. Products include cardboard boxes, grocery bags, gift wrap, and can and bottle labels.
Engraving
An image is punched into the paper, and feels indented (run your fingers over the back side of the sheet). Ideal for keeping your stationery hard to duplicate. Most law firms still use engraving.
