How does it work?

Step 1: Design set-up

Your logo or design is prepared for printing - either etched onto a mesh screen for screen printing, or programmed into our digital printing system - ready for accurate set-up and positioning.

Step 2: Job Set-up

Your Pantone® ink (screen print) or multi-colour digital artwork is printed onto the boxes first. Once the base print is complete, the gloss lacquer layer is prepared. The mesh screen or digital alignment is then tested to ensure the gloss sits precisely over the intended areas of the design.

Step 3: Print & Dry

A clear gloss lacquer is applied over selected parts of the printed design or across the entire print, adding depth, shine and a premium highlight effect. Each box is printed individually and dried to ensure a flawless glossy finish.

Step 4: Finished Result

Your boxes are complete, featuring your logo or design in Pantone® screen print or full-colour digital print, enhanced with a luxurious gloss lacquer layer that elevates key details and adds a high-end visual finish.

FAQs

What designs is a glossy lacquer suitable for?

Glossy lacquer can be added over the top of the whole, or part of the screen printed or digitally printed design.

Is this included in the price of screen printing or digital print?

No it's an additional cost. It depends on the area required to be glossy and which technique is being used to add the colour to the gift box. If this glossy addition is of interest check first if the basic price for screen or digital print is workable and if you would like to progress, add the requirement of a glossy area to your logo or design in the notes section when you submit your quotation to progress to an order.

Adding a gloss finish to a 1 colour screen print is the same as 2 colour screen printing, the glossy finish is the same price as adding a 2nd colour.

Can I print just the glossy lacquer?

Yes you can print just a glossy finish without any added colour, it works well for screen printed designs for a light-catching highlight. Follow the quotation process for 1 or 2 colour screen print and add a note in the area provided to notify us you only want a glossy no colour effect.
