A golden sheen on corrugated board: new metallic effects for packaging and displays
How can eye-catching gold effects be combined with the need for recyclable packaging? We have the answer: a new metallic varnish that we print directly onto corrugated board using flexoprinting.
This enables us to achieve a strong visual impact while maintaining efficient processes and the use of recyclable materials. For marketers, this exciting finish combines a premium look with recyclability.
What makes our metallic varnish special?
- Customisable colour shades for brand-specific presentation
- Water-based inks that integrate well into recycling processes
- Partial metallic effects that add targeted accents and create striking highlights
This enables us to create high-quality packaging and displays whilst remaining flexible in design. The solution demonstrates its added value in the following areas:
- Large-format corrugated cardboard packaging with a high-quality appearance
- Shipping boxes for e-commerce that offer a special unboxing experience
- POS displays for special occasions
How can gold effects be combined with recyclability in packaging?
Through a production-ready metallic varnish that is printed directly onto corrugated board using flexographic printing. This process allows for partial gloss effects, customisable colour shades, and the use of water-based inks.
What are the advantages of metallic varnish over metallised cardboard?
It offers greater design freedom for brand colours and allows for targeted metallic effects to be applied only where they will have a visual impact.
What is this solution particularly suitable for?
POS displays, large-format corrugated cardboard packaging, and e-commerce shipping boxes with a high-quality brand impact.
