The right press for the right run.

Digital to test. Flexo to scale.

Print technology is an economics decision as much as a quality one. We don’t push one press — we match the method to your volume, artwork, and growth stage, and re-match it as you scale.

01 — DIGITAL

Digital Printing

Zero plates. Fast turns. Perfect for testing.

Digital presses print straight from your file — no plates, no cylinders, no tooling lead time. That makes digital the fastest path from approved art to printed packaging, and the only economical path for small runs and multi-SKU variety.

✓No plate or cylinder costs — ideal for short runs
✓Fastest turnaround from art approval to print
✓Every package can be different — versioning, regional editions, personalization
✓Test designs in-market before committing to volume tooling
Best whenLaunching, testing, or running many SKUs at lower volumes.
Trade-offCost per unit stays flat as volume grows — at scale, plate-based methods win on unit price.
02 — FLEXO

Flexographic Printing

The mid-volume workhorse of packaging print.

Flexo uses flexible relief plates to lay fast, consistent color on film at production speed. Once plates are made, unit costs drop well below digital — making flexo the natural home for established SKUs at moderate-to-high volume.

✓Strong unit economics at mid-to-high volumes
✓Fast production speeds on web-fed film
✓Excellent for solid colors, line work, and brand-color consistency
✓Plates are durable and reusable across reorders
Best whenEstablished products with steady volume and consistent artwork.
Trade-offPlate costs front-load the investment; artwork changes mean new plates.
The Microflex Path

Test. Launch. Scale. Same partner.

Start digital to validate your design in-market. Move to flexo as volume builds. Because we support both paths, you never outgrow your packaging partner — and your brand colors stay consistent through every transition.

TEST

Digital

Small runs, fast turns, zero tooling. Validate the design, the shelf, and the customer.

LAUNCH

Flexo

Volume builds — plates pay for themselves and unit costs drop into retail-ready territory.

SCALE

Flexo at Volume

Durable plates, fast webs, and locked-in color standards carry your flagship SKUs at production scale.
