Construction, quality and use of materials, printing and finishing techniques all play a vital role in creating luxury packaging that will differentiate your product from your competition.
Rigid board has long been considered the discerning buyers choice as the inner core of solid greyboard can be wrapped in a myriad of materials such as high quality printed art papers, textured, grained and even linen materials all of which can be embellished with foil blocking, embossing, film lamination and high gloss spot UV varnishes.
Metal packaging is also a way to present your product to great effect. Mag-lyte, a combination of polypropylene sandwiched betweenan inner and outer layer of aluminum has great visual appeal. The beauty of this material is that the polypropylene affords the boxintegral selfhinging properties along the crease lines.
For greater strength and depth of finish 100% aluminum can be used, either in matt or silver finish this can be treated in the same way as mag-lyte although it does not have the same flexibility in its construction.
Thealuminum can be decorated in a number of ways including silkscreen printing, litho printing, embossing / debossing, laser engraving and even dye sublimation, a technique of transferring print from a reel withexceptional detail andgreat tonal values.
It is also possible to utilize such materials in combination examples:
Metal with Rigid board. The rigid board is taped to the mag-lyte - a good way of presenting folders for instance.
Metal with Perspex. The perspex can be fixed to the metal by use of rivets or inter screws
Metal with Wood. Particularly appropriate for appealing to the environmentally friendly campaigns
With all of the above applications your products can be cushioned internally and presented in the most appealing manner with the use of fitments produced in high density foam, silkand flock materials to name but a few.
