Offset Print

Overview

Offset printing is typically used for mass production projects, such as printing large quantities of newspapers, brochures, stationeries, magazines, and, of course, boxes. Colors are layered on large metal plates and then rolled or blanketed onto the substrate. While this technique may take a little more time, it offers exceptional printing quality and color output for a range of different materials. Offset printing has the capability to work with both the CMYK color system as well as custom ink systems such as Pantone. This printing method is low cost for large volume runs as the machine will only need to be set up once for production.
