Full Colour Print (Direct Digital) Wooden model: refer to template×
Direct Digital
Direct to product digital printing involves the transfer of ink directly from the print heads of an inkjet machine to the product and can be used to produce both spot colour and full colour branding on flat or slightly curved surfaces.
Advantages
- Ideal for printing dark coloured products as a layer of white ink can be printed under the artwork.
- Can print variable data including individual names.
- Only one set up charge is required irrespective of the number of print colours.
- Instant drying so products can be shipped immediately.
- Offers larger print areas on many products and can print very close to the edge of flat products.
Limitations
- Only approximate PMS colours can be reproduced.
- Some colours cannot be reproduced including metallic silver and gold.
- The size of branding areas is limited on curved surfaces.
- Larger print areas tend to be more expensive.
Artwork Requirements
- Artwork can be supplied in either vector or bitmap format.
- Bleed of 3mm should be added to the artwork if it bleeds off the product (the image goes to the edge).
-
Screen Print Wooden model (one colour): refer to template×
Screen Print
Screen printing is achieved by forcing ink through a fine mesh screen with a squeegee onto the product and is ideal for branding flat or cylindrical objects.

- Ideal for large solid areas of colour.
- Most screen print inks are quick drying and can be shipped immediately after printing.

Laser Engraving Wooden model: refer to template×
Laser Engraving
Laser engraving produces a permanent natural finish using a laser to mark the product. Different materials produce different effects when engraved so to avoid uncertainty pre-production samples are recommended.
Advantages

- The branding becomes part of the surface and is permanent.
- Gives a similar finish to etching on glassware at a much lower cost.
- Can mark curved or uneven products.
- Can produce variable data including individual names.
- The product can be shipped as soon as marking is finished.
Limitations
- The size of branding areas is limited on curved surfaces.
- Fine detail can be lost on smaller products like pens.
Artwork Requirements
- Artwork should be supplied in vector format.
