Foiling introduces striking visual elements to the design. Customers often incorporate foiling into their brand names but it can also serve as a drop shadow or keyline for text, to enhance the label.
We can offer foiling in a variety of colours and finishes, including both Matte and Gloss options to suit any brand or design. -
Numbering creates a unique label.
It is generally used on small runs such as; labels for Single Cask or Single Barrel Whiskies. However, Numbering is not just limited to numbers and can also be used for variable data. This means that each label can have a completely unique design.

Screen Printing has the capabilities of applying tactile varnishes to a label, which add a raised feel. We can also use this technology to add HI Gloss to an area on the label which doesn’t require the tactile feel.

Embossing introduces a raised element to a label. This is useful to highlight specific areas or design features, adding textural intricacies and tactile appeal.
In contrast, Debossing creates a stamped effect, imparting an old typewriter-style imprint to the label.Both embellishments can enhance the label, realising the intentions behind the branding.

Lamination offers a significantly more robust finish to a label. It is most often utilized to protect the label from the contents of the bottle.
