Printing and Artwork on Packaging Films and Laminated Sheets

Artwork approval rarely fails on the design. It fails where the design meets the material.

Where print sits in each format

  • Film and laminates: print on the outer layer, protected by the structure
  • Rigid sheets: print directly on the sheet, or on the gloss face of a laminate
  • Trays: print before forming so registration survives the draw

What to confirm

  • Ink system compatibility with the substrate
  • Whether the surface is treated for adhesion
  • Print trials at production speed rather than lab speed
