All-round printing
With an all-round print the beginning and end of the print area will come together at the back causing a blemish line. This must be accepted. As an alternative you can choose a 5mm opening.

Top print area 750ml bottles
When printing on the upper part of the 750ml bottle, the top print is considered additional printing colors. So, 2 colors above and 2 below means a total of 4 printing colors.

Full colour process print: CMYK
It could be, that part of the design has to be made up in CMYK and an additional spot colour. For example, text with a specific pantone colour. Therefore, please always send us the artwork to check the number of print colours required.

Silk screen prints
For each print colour we make an individual screen. We can print up to 12 colours. Our printing machine prints 6 colours in one production run.

Printing full colour
When printing a multiple colour design, where the colours meet a 0,5 mm tolerance in closure must be accepted. When printing full colour process CMYK, the end result is mat, pixelated and can deviate from the visual proof. Our raster size is 34 dpi.

Printing on coloured bottles
To print a pantone colour onto a coloured bottle, it’s necessary to print a white underlay first. No white underlay is required for grey tints, gold, silver and white. In some cases an outline is visible and has to be accepted. The white underlay is calculated as one extra print colour and one extra screen. If white is already part of the design, there is no extra white underlay required. If in doubt, please contact us for information.

Dark bottles
Dark bottles are unfortunately very sensitive to scratches and scuff marks. This must be accepted.
