Special processing

Special processing

A box must be solid and resistant to protect the product it contains, but must know how to valourise the product with the ultimate goal of enticing the customer to buy it.
The custom-made design of your boxes must therefore be original and appealing. The special processing must absolutely make the package stand out, thanks to its luxurious packaging.
Cartotecnica Ghio can follow a series of special processing that give that packaging that winning touch for the packaging of your product, with visual and tactile effects with a great impact.
Plasticisation
Other than traditional painting you can also opt for plasticisation of the printed sheet achieving a series of important advantages, such as:
  • better visual effect
  • more robust packaging
  • more scratch- and spot-resistant
  • high water-resistance
Plasticising can be shiny, opaque, soft touch, or metallic.

UV screen printing
UV screen printing highlights some parts of the graphics (generally an image or the name of the product) thanks to an elegant effect of transparency, a pleasant tactile and visual effect.

Heat printing
Application of a hot metallic laminate on carton lends the package a great air of prestige.
Cartotecnica Ghio is able to hot print gold, silver, copper, multicolour, and holographic finishing.

Positive and negative relief
Another effect of assured success applicable to boxes is low-relief or high-relief for some parts of the surfaces, such as the name of the product or company, an image or a small design.
It can be paired with hot printing to create an impact of utmost elegance.
