Tips and advice for Brand Owners

Polyflex offers a complete Packaging Brand Asset Management solution. This platform streamlines and controls the complexities of packaging brand execution, from reprographics and colour retouching to polymer platemaking for flexo, litho, and gravure printing. This secure digital library houses all your brand’s packaging assets, such as technical key lines, artwork, logos, and graphics.

Benefits of our Packaging Brand Asset Management:

  • Easier asset reusability due to centralised storage
  • Increased accountability through version control and history tracking
  • Improved efficiency and data sharing with faster document retrieval
  • Enhanced security with secure, web-based access

Polyflex representatives offer expert advice on how brand concepts translate into packaging workmaps, identifying potential pitfalls in graphic applications. For successful packaging design, we collaborate with brand owners to provide technical advice on packaging materials and processes.

Product recalls are a nightmare for any brand owner. Let us proofread your product compliance specifications to ensure there are no grammatical or spelling errors. We also partner with an ISO-accredited agency for translation and compliance certification.

Our Packaging Approval Management platform simplifies the approval process for design, prepress, and print service providers. Review and approve graphic and structural content anytime, anywhere, with reduced turnaround times and greater communication efficiency.

Benefits of our Packaging Approval Management:

  • 60% reduction in proofing and shipping costs
  • 25% time savings due to fewer interventions and high-quality feedback
  • Faster approval turnaround times
  • Streamlined communication between customers, sales, operators, and production

Our Packaging Brand Asset Management platform is a secure, web-based digital warehouse for all your packaging assets, from artwork to technical specifications. This system simplifies prepress design and ensures that your brand’s assets, including technical key lines, artwork, graphics and other elements, are stored securely and are easily accessible.

Our proofing process is a critical standard in prepress colour management. From paper type to ICC profiles, we ensure contract proofs accurately represent the printed result. Factors such as substrate types, inks, anilox selection, density, and dot gain all influence the final print result. Contact us to find out how our prepress solutions can optimise your print quality.

3D mockups provide a cost-effective way to visualise your packaging before mass production. With these prototypes, you can identify and correct design flaws, ensuring the packaging design is perfectly aligned with the printing process.

Benefits of 3D Mockups:

  • Cost-effective, once-off samples of your product
  • Identify and correct design flaws early
  • Ensure the design process is aligned with the printing process
  • Save on initial investment before large-scale production
  • Avoid costly reworking, retooling, or product recalls

Expanded Colour Gamut (ECG) printing helps printers meet increasing demand for shorter packaging production runs with greater colour vibrancy. By converting spot colours to a fixed ink set, ECG printing reduces downtime between jobs, boosts productivity, and enhances the visual impact of your packaging when compared to conventional spot colour printing.

Benefits of Expanded Colour Gamut printing:

  • Reduced press downtime
  • Reduced wash-ups on the press
  • Increased productivity in the press room
  • Lower ink stock and reduced production costs
