We are partnered with industry leading decorators and manufacturers spanning a wide range of capabilities which can help you create the packaging that will stand out. Below are some of the processes that you can use to take your stock packaging from mundane to magnificent. 

    Acid etch frost- a process of exposing the glass surface to a caustic acid in order to etch the surface. There is no residual coating, and the glass surface is permanently altered.

     Spraying- a process of applying specialized inks to coat the glass using a number of techniques to achieve a wide variety of finishes. The inks can either be opaque ceramic, which are cured at a very high temperature which fuses to the surface of the glass or organic , which are cured at a much lower temperature and are bonded to the surface. Organic inks can range from a light transparent tint to fully opaque and have a much wider color range than ceramic.

     Silk Screening -a process of applying inks to a component by pushing inks through a screen mesh. Inks can be ceramic, organic or precious metals and can be applied over a frost or sprayed surface. Both bottles and caps can be silk screened.

     Hot Stamping- For glass this a 2-stage process of applying a metal foil onto glass where the foil bonds to a previously screened base substrate using a heated mechanism. 

      For caps and other plastics this is a 1 stage process of applying a foil via the use of a custom heated die plate.

      Labels -The application of both pressure sensitive or heat transfer* labels to a component. Labels can offer you the best photorealistic graphics to fully realize your branding vision.
