How does it work?

Step 1: Design Screen Engraved

Your logo or design is transferred onto a fine mesh screen using a UV light exposure process that defines the print area. Creating the screen typically takes around one hour.

Step 2: Job Set-up

Your chosen Pantone® ink is mixed, and the printing set-up is prepared. The mesh screen is aligned precisely with the required box position, and several test prints are carried out on sample boxes to ensure accuracy, colour density and a clean result.

Step 3: Print & Dry

Once testing is complete, production begins. Ink is pushed through the screen using a squeegee, depositing a crisp, even ink print of your design onto each box. Boxes are printed individually and left to dry before packing.

Step 4: Finished Result

Your boxes are complete, featuring your logo or design in your selected Pantone®-matched ink. The print sits smoothly on the surface of the box.

FAQs

Here are some FAQ's regarding printing. If your question isn't answered here please take a look at our full FAQ's page.

Can I get a printed sample box?

Yes, we can produce a physical printed sample, but please note that it can be costly due to the set-up involved. To keep things efficient, we provide a free digital proof of your logo on your chosen gift box style. This is supplied for your approval before we proceed with your bulk order, and most customers find it gives a goo visual representation of the final printed result.

Can I use RGB, CMYK or HEX references for screen printing?

Screen printing is an ink based printing method, which means we need a Pantone reference in order to match your colour accurately. It's similar to the paint matching process you would use in decorating. If you don't have your brand colour as a Pantone reference we can convert from other formats to achieve a close Pantone match.

Can I print more than one colour?

Yes, but we are usually limited to two colours for screen printing. You can select the 2 colour screen print information page or Digital Print if 3+ colours, tints, gradients or shading are needed.

My design includes small text or details, will this work for screen printing?

We can usually include details and text in screen printing, however, as ink is semi-liquid, we sometimes have to make small amendments to the design to get the best result for your boxes.

Can I print a logo with gradients or shading?

Screen print is a solid colour branding technique so it's not possible to include gradients or shading. We can produce a multi-colour design, photographic style image or tints, shading and gradients using Digital Printing. Select Digital Printi from the techniques menu to see if this print technique works best for your design.

Can I have a gloss / shiny effect on my screen printing?

Yes, please select ‘Gloss Screen /Digital Print’ from our top branding menu and you will see this can be added on top of your 1-colour design.
