Screen Printing

Screen Printing is a traditional and highly durable printing method used to apply solid color designs onto packaging surfaces using a mesh screen and ink transfer process.

In our box manufacturing process, a stencil (screen) is prepared for each color in the artwork. Ink is then pushed through the mesh screen onto the box surface, creating bold, opaque, and long-lasting prints.

Screen printing is especially effective for simple logos, large solid areas, and specialty inks where strong color opacity and durability are required.

🔍 How It Works

1. Artwork is separated by color layers.

2. A mesh screen is prepared for each color.

3. Ink is applied and pressed through the screen onto the box surface.

4. Printed surface is dried and cured for durability.

Each color requires a separate screen setup.

🎯 Best For

• Single-color or two-color logos

• Minimalist branding

• Large solid design areas

• Kraft paper boxes

• Textured or specialty materials

• High opacity white ink on dark surfaces

✅ Advantages

• Strong, bold color output

• Excellent ink opacity

• Works on textured and kraft surfaces

• Durable and scratch resistant

• Cost-effective for simple designs

⚠️ Limitations / Considerations

• Each color requires separate screen cost

• Not ideal for complex gradients

• Photo-realistic images not recommended

• Setup required before production

📊 When to Choose Screen Printing

• Simple logo with 1–2 solid colors

• Dark background requiring strong white ink

• Specialty ink finishes (metallic, fluorescent, etc.)

• Medium to large production quantities

⚙️ Technical Notes

• Applicable only to boxes manufactured by us

• Vector artwork required (AI / PDF format)
