It suits new brands, market tests and products with many SKUs.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is there a minimum order for digital label printing?
It varies by product. Shrink sleeve labels and capseals have no minimum, though the unit price is higher for small quantities. OPP labels start at 5,000 pcs and cup sealing film at 2 rolls.
How long does digital printing take?
About 7 days for new jobs and 5 days for repeat orders. Estimated lead time begins after final artwork approval and receipt of the required deposit. Actual lead times may vary with order specifications and production schedules. Shipping time is not included.
What materials can you print digitally?

What is the maximum print width?

How is digital printing different from gravure?
Digital needs no plates, accepts small quantities and is faster — ideal for new or multi-design products. Gravure is better for high volumes because the unit cost is lower at scale.
Who is digital printing best for?
New brands, market tests, limited editions, or products with many flavors or designs in small quantities.
Can you help with artwork?
Yes. If you have artwork, our in-house team will prepare and adjust it for production on your packaging free of charge. This covers production file preparation, not full brand or packaging design.
Can I test samples before ordering?
Yes, and we recommend it, subject to the job and sample arrangements. Our team records the application parameters for you to ensure the best results in production.
Do you export?
Yes. We serve customers in many countries, and our team communicates in English, Thai and Chinese.
