Prepress

At Enhance Packaging, we utilise Fujifilm SUPERIA ZX processless thermal printing plates. This is a technical choice as much as it is a philosophical one. Processless plates are a groundbreaking technology which offers many benefits such as the time and cost savings associated with processor maintenance, space and also utility savings by completely eliminating the processor.

Importantly, environmental considerations are also vastly improved by creating a safer work environment that reduces chemical exposure.

Benefits to our customers include:

  • Lower costs
  • More consistent print quality and sharpness
  • Faster and easier corrections or changes

Printing

Enhance Packaging offers offset, digital and flexo printing, allowing us to deliver the best method depending on your requirements.

Offset

Our offset presses are capable of printing up to six colours with UV or litho varnish coating.

Ultimate print quality and accurate colour reproduction is ensured throughout the print run by employing various control systems like plate calibration, ink density, colour accuracy and print registration checks.

Foil Blocking

We utilise a Bobst BMA stamper and a Steuer Foil-Jet Rotary stamper. Our Steuer Foil-Jet offers unique capabilities to enhance your packaging. It enables us to offer unprecedented speed and allows us to apply a high volume of foil to the carton, while achieving high quality levels.

Litho Lamination

Litho lamination is a process where high quality, litho offset printed graphics are applied to a solid board material and then mounted to corrugated board using a lamination technique. This combines the strength of corrugated cardboard with the detailed print quality of offset. Litho lamination offers several advantages, including high quality graphics, durability, and high strength. It’s a popular choice for retail packaging and other applications where a combination of strength and print quality is desired.

Folder/Gluing

Our gluing capabilities include gluing simple in line cartons through to crash lock base cartons and 4 corner glued cartons and trays. Our Bobst gluing machines are fast and efficient, improving both quality and lead-times.
