These are the decoration methods this product can be branded with.
Rotary Screen Print
Ink is pushed through a fine mesh screen onto the product, one screen per colour. The ink sits on the surface as a thin, slightly raised layer that you can feel with a fingertip.
- Colours
- 1 colour
- Print area
- Bottle - 180mm x 150mm (one colour).
- Best for
- Bold, flat spot colours and simple logos, especially over larger runs — the setup is per colour, so the more units you order the cheaper each one gets.
- Not ideal for
- Photographs, gradients, or artwork with many colours, since each colour needs its own screen.
Colourflex Transfer
Your artwork is printed onto a carrier film, then heat-pressed onto the product so the design fuses to the surface. The result is a smooth, slightly glossy layer with cleanly cut edges.
- Colours
- Full colour
- Print area
- Sleeve - 100mm x 70mm
- Best for
- Full-colour artwork, photographs, and fine gradients — and small runs, since there are no per-colour screens to set up.
- Not ideal for
- Very high-heat or heavily textured fabrics, where the film struggles to bond evenly.
DigiFlex Transfer
Your artwork is printed onto a carrier film, then heat-pressed onto the product so the design fuses to the surface. The result is a smooth, slightly glossy layer with cleanly cut edges.
- Colours
- Full colour
- Print area
- Sleeve - 100mm x 70mm
- Best for
- Full-colour artwork, photographs, and fine gradients — and small runs, since there are no per-colour screens to set up.
- Not ideal for
- Very high-heat or heavily textured fabrics, where the film struggles to bond evenly.
Imitation Etch
A specialist frosted ink is screen-printed onto glass or acrylic, mimicking the look of sandblasted etching. It is a print, not an abrasion — the surface stays smooth.
- Print areas
- Bottle - 180mm x 150mm · Bottle - 40mm x 50mm
- Best for
- Glassware and clear drinkware where you want the frosted, etched look without the cost or lead time of real etching.
- Not ideal for
- Anything opaque or dark, where there is no light passing through to make the frosted effect read.
Pad Print
A soft silicone pad picks your logo up from an etched plate and stamps it onto the product. Because the pad flexes, it can print onto curved and uneven surfaces that flat methods cannot reach.
- Colours
- Up to 4 colours
- Print area
- Bottle - 40mm x 50mm.
- Best for
- Small, crisp marks on pens, bottle lids, and other curved or awkwardly shaped items.
- Not ideal for
- Large print areas or heavy solid coverage — the pad can only carry so much ink in one pass.
Laser Engraving
A laser burns away the top surface layer, revealing the material beneath. On metal that means a frosted, tone-on-tone mark; on timber, a darker scorched line. Nothing is added to the product, so there is no ink to scratch off.
- Print area
- Bottle Lid - 35mm circle
- Best for
- Drinkware, tools, and metal or timber gifts where a permanent, understated finish matters.
- Not ideal for
- Anything needing colour — engraving cannot add any. You get the material's own contrast.
