Flexo vs Digital


Flexographic printing is a traditional method of printing that involves creating a printing plate and then using it to transfer ink onto the label material. This method is best suited for high-volume label production and is typically used for printing labels for products such as food, beverages, and household products. Flexographic printing offers a wide range of substrate options, including paper, film, and foil, and can achieve a variety of finishes such as matte, gloss, and metallic.


Digital label printing, on the other hand, involves using digital technology to print directly onto the label material. This method is best suited for short to medium print runs and offers greater flexibility in terms of customization, making it ideal for labeling products with variable information such as batch numbers or barcodes. Digital label printing can also offer faster turnaround times and lower costs for smaller print runs.


In summary, flexographic printing is best for high-volume label production with fewer design variations, while digital label printing is ideal for shorter print runs and greater design flexibility. Ultimately, the choice between the two printing methods will depend on the specific needs and requirements of your labeling project.
