Whether you have been in the printing industry for decades or you are just gaining some traction with a side project, there’s no doubt that you’re in need of some beautiful custom labels to get your products moving.
The most basic question to tackle in your label journey — will digital printing work for me ?
BENEFITS OF DIGITAL PRINTING
Eco-friendly:
Because the digital printing process does not use all of the extra chemicals and films to create plates, digital is a greener and cleaner way to build your brand.
Quick Turnaround:
Digital printing can be done super quickly! Because there is no initial plate setup, we are already one step closer to the finished product.
Short Runs:
With old-school flexo, you are limited to ordering extremely large runs. Of course, if you are a small business, you may not need 200,000 labels for your homemade BBQ sauce. At IMEC Media , we understand that a label may be a trial, you can order just a small amount to get started and grow with your product.
Variations:
Digital printing allows for multiple variations, like different flavors or scents. Because digital printers use laser technology–instead of plates–you have more freedom to expand the number of designs in your brand. If you dream of having more flavors than Nando’s sauce, digital printing makes that possible!
Consistency:
If you’re familiar with the expression, “You never bake the same cake twice,” you could say the same is true with ink mixtures. With digital, the ink is never modified! Digital inks arrive in sealed containers, and there are no additives. Our fabulous prepress team makes all modifications directly in the digital artwork. All in all, the colors in your label are easier to consistently reproduce.
Price:
Each of these benefits work together to save you money!
-No setup costs or plate fee (this obviously means treat yourself with that extra cash!)
-Ability to order shorter runs.
-Quick lead time that keeps your shelves stocked.
