FROM CONTAINER TO ARTWORK

Printing on bottles, jars and tubes

Decoration is applied directly to the surface. For suitable artwork and containers, it can replace a label and create packaging tailored to your project.

Bottles and cylindrical containers

An option to assess for cosmetics, personal care and haircare products. Dimensions and usable surface area determine the print area.

Jars and tapered shapes

We check the container geometry and artwork position to agree print dimensions, orientation and coverage.

Tubes and other surfaces

Material, surface finish and shape require a specific assessment. A photograph or packaging sample is the first step.

Compatibility is checked on the specific container. Different materials and finishes may require different preparation.

CMYK + WHITE + VARNISH

Colour, white and varnish for your packaging

The system combines four-colour printing, white and varnish. Layers and finishes are selected according to the container's background and the effect you want to achieve.

  • CMYK for full-colour artwork and images
  • White for base layers and details on compatible surfaces
  • Varnish to highlight details and surface effects

THE PRINT PROJECT

CMYKWhiteVarnish

From artwork file to container.

We agree dimensions, positioning and finish together. Where needed, a trial helps assess appearance, adhesion and the result on the chosen surface.

Durability and final appearance also depend on material, surface treatment and conditions of use.

FOR A TAILORED QUOTATION

What we need to assess UV printing

The container

Photographs, material, dimensions and shape. Tell us whether the packaging is already available and whether it has coatings or surface treatments.

The artwork

Logo or draft artwork, decoration area and desired finish. We will define file requirements before starting work.

The batch

Quantity per variant, number of designs and requested timing. Specify whether you need printing only or filling and packaging as well.

You can email photographs and artwork files, referencing your project.

SEVERAL OPERATIONS, ONE PROJECT

Printing, filling and packaging

Request UV printing as a standalone service or assess it alongside other operations. The sequence is agreed according to the container and product specifications.

BEFORE WE START

UV printing: your questions

Can I supply my own containers?

Yes, you can propose the packaging you have already selected. Before printing, we check its material, shape and surface; a sample may be required.

Can UV printing replace a label?

For compatible projects, artwork is applied directly to the container. We need to check the available area, required content and result on the surface.

Can you personalise small batches?

We also assess short-run projects. Minimum quantities and costs depend on the container, quantity, number of designs and preparation required.

Is printing suitable for every surface?

Compatibility is not automatic: materials, treatments and conditions of use must be checked. A technical assessment and any necessary trial help define a suitable solution.

Can I request printing only?

You can request an assessment for UV printing alone, or include other operations such as filling, cartoning and batch preparation.
