What this division handles
Our pre-press and repro team takes signed-off packaging artwork and prepares it for gravure and flexo printing. Each file is reviewed for color separation, trapping, profiles, and proofing, all matched to the specific film, ink, and press on the job. The aim is to get everything right before a single cylinder or plate is produced.
Repro, cylinder engraving, and press operators work as one team from start to finish. Decisions on screen ruling, dot gain, and ink limits are based on real press data, so the printed result stays as faithful as possible to the approved proof.
For repeat customers, we store brand color standards on file, which makes it simple to match colors when a design comes back to press, even many months later.
