Flexographic Labels.
Sustainable flexo printing, designed for the future.
Our innovative flexographic printing process ensures efficient ink usage, reduced waste, and eco-friendly materials, delivering high-quality labels with a lower environmental footprint.
Flexographic printing: A sustainable solution.
Flexographic (flexo) printing plays a vital role in advancing sustainability within the industry. As one of the most cost-effective and efficient printing methods, flexo offers numerous advantages that can help businesses showcase their commitment to eco-friendly practices.
Flexographic printing offers a range of environmental benefits, from efficient ink usage to lower energy consumption. Discover how this sustainable printing method reduces waste, cuts down on harmful emissions, and helps businesses embrace eco-friendly practices.
Efficient.
Flexographic printing uses ink more efficiently than traditional methods, applying only a thin layer. This reduces ink waste and prevents excess ink from polluting the environment. With minimal waste, flexo ensures less ink ends up in landfills, where it could potentially seep into the soil and harm local ecosystems.
Water based inks.
One of the major benefits of flexo printing is the option to use water-based inks. Unlike solvent-based inks, water-based inks release fewer volatile organic compounds (VOCs), reducing air pollution. When used on labels you can recycle or compost them.
Lower energy.
Flexographic printing has embraced advanced technologies like LED UV curing, which uses significantly less energy than conventional drying systems. Reduced energy consumption helps reduce our environmental footprint by decreasing reliance on electricity generated from fossil fuels.
Frequently asked questions.
-
What is flexographic printing, and how is it different from digital?
Flexo printing uses printing plates and is ideal for larger runs. It’s faster per unit and more cost-effective at scale, especially for simple or repeated designs.
-
When should I choose flexo over digital printing?
Flexo is best for high-volume jobs, labels with spot colours, or when you need consistent, repeatable quality across tens of thousands of units.
-
Are there setup costs for flexo printing?
Yes, flexo involves an initial plate setup cost — but it’s a worthwhile investment for large or repeat orders, as it brings the cost per label right down.
-
What materials and finishes are available with flexo?
We offer a wide range of sustainable materials, adhesives, and finishes including gloss, matt, and textured varnishes — all tailored to your product and application.
-
Can flexo printing still be eco-friendly?
Definitely. We use water-based inks, energy-efficient machines, and FSC® certified or recyclable materials — plus, we’re a certified carbon neutral manufacturer.
