Moreover, we have the following kinds of material, take a look:

Cardstock Material

This kind of material weighs more than the average writing paper but is not as heavy as other paperboards.

They are the best choice for liquid products.

For example, 12pt cardstock material is stronger and thicker than plain paper.

Also, it is more adaptable than any other paperboard.

Eco-Friendly Kraft Material

Kraft is a composite material, non-toxic, pollution-free, odourless, low-carbon, environmentally protective, & high-strength.

And has met the national environmental protection standards.

Also, they have high environmental protection. 

Because of all these reasons, it is the most favourite packaging material worldwide.

Corrugated Material

Corrugated material is a good option for a while.

It consists of flutes and two or more linerboards.

The flutes vary in thickness, and their application determines their usage. They are categorised into:

  1. A flute (5mm)
  2. B flute (3mm)
  3. C flute (4mm)
  4. E flute (1.5mm)
  5. F flute (0.6mm)

Printing Methods

The type of printing method you choose will determine how your boxes will look.

We guarantee that your packaging will have the perfect appearance.

Digital Printing

Digital printing prints directly onto a variety of media substrates.

We select this method because it does not involve the use of printing plates.

It is suitable for print-on-demand, personalised and variable data printing, cost-effective short runs, and quick turnarounds.

Offset Printing

Unlike digital printing, offset printing utilises printing plates.

It is a conventional method where plates and rollers transfer the picture to the printing surface.

In modern offset printing, the procedure occurs on three rotating cylinders.

We depend on this method for high-quality results.

Screen Printing

Screen printing works by pressing ink through a mesh onto the substrate.

Although paper and canvas are the main surfaces.

We can print on various other materials as well.

Our staff guarantees precise and lively prints every time.

Color Models

We provide two varieties of colour models, and they include: 

CMYK Model

The CMYK model comprises four colours, which are Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and Key Black.

It is a great choice for printing through colored limited.

PMS Model

The Pantone matching system (PMS) offers an extensive number of colour varieties for boxes made on wholesale boxes.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Great service! I had a bit of a wobble start, then the sales Executive Paul Cooper, quickly corrected the issue, he was very understanding, and extremely helpful. The finished result was amazing, and I received my order within the time frame, which was lovely. Im definitely re-ordering with Plus Printers again.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

We needed to order products as quickly as possible after our previous print company gave us a substandard product. We took a chance on Plus Printers and we are very happy with the outcome! They were able to process our order during the holidays swiftly and accurately. Their customer service team is amazing, the product is very good quality, and they have reasonable pricing as well. We will definitely use them again!
