Service
Packaging, labels, cartons and printed matter, together with what comes before and after the press: colour separation in CMYK, spot colours and Pantone, print-ready file preparation, and supervised colour matching. Experience extends to coordinating with manufacturing factories and following sample approvals through.
What you get
Files that are genuinely press-ready: correct separations, bleed, and trapping
Press supervision and colour matching between the approved sample and the run
Fluency across print systems: offset, digital, flexography, gravure and large format
Considered finishing: lamination, foil, embossing and die-cut
How we work
Setting the specification
Material, size, print system and colour count — decided before the design, not after it.
Design
Art direction that accounts for what the substrate does to colour and what the cut does to the layout.
Prepress
Colour separation, bleed, trapping, and the die-cut file.
Supervision
Reviewing the sample and matching colour until the run matches what was approved.
Common questions
Both. A design left unsupervised at the press comes back a different colour from the one approved on screen; following the run is part of the work.
