Approved designs stay in control
Colour count, repeat length, print areas and product information should be agreed before cylinder production begins.
Custom rotogravure printing for flexible packaging helps established brands achieve accurate colour, stable registration and consistent pouch quality across repeat orders. It is a practical choice for coffee bags, food packaging, pet food pouches and other high volume flexible packaging programmes.
Send your pouch format, dimensions, material requirements, estimated quantity and artwork status. We will help you choose the suitable printing route.

Cylinder based printing is most effective when artwork, pouch construction and the reorder programme are already clear.
Colour count, repeat length, print areas and product information should be agreed before cylinder production begins.
Approved materials, colour references and technical files provide a reliable production baseline for future orders.
Rotogravure printing is commonly chosen for established packaging programmes with meaningful volume and recurring demand.

Rotogravure printing rewards preparation. A complete technical brief reduces avoidable changes after the project enters cylinder production.
The press is one part of the system. Pouch format, film structure and finishing details need to work together before production is released.

Both routes serve flexible packaging. The right choice depends on artwork stability, volume and how often the design is likely to change.
| Decision point | Rotogravure printing | Digital printing |
|---|---|---|
| Best fit | Established artwork and larger or recurring packaging programmes. | New launches, multiple SKUs, testing and smaller repeat orders. |
| Artwork changes | Best after the visual system and colour plan are stable. | Useful when designs, variants or product information are still changing. |
| Setup approach | Uses engraved cylinders prepared for the approved production file. | Prints from approved digital artwork; no cylinders are required. |
| Next step | Confirm pouch structure, colour plan, estimated volume and reorder expectations. | Explore Digital Printing for shorter, flexible programmes. |
Aligning printing, materials and pouch decisions early gives every production step a clear reference point.
Tell us the product, pouch format, dimensions, market, quantity and artwork status.
Check the dieline, print areas, colour separation and functional pouch details.
Release the cylinder plan after the technical file and colour requirements are agreed.
Use the approved reference alongside the selected materials and production controls.
Verify print, structure, seals and functional features before dispatch.
A repeatable flexible packaging programme checks both the printed web and finished pouch against the agreed specification.
The more complete the project brief, the more useful the early production discussion will be.
It is often suitable when the design is established and the packaging programme will be reordered at meaningful volume.
Each planned colour normally has a dedicated engraved cylinder. Confirm the colour plan before cylinder production begins.
Yes. Printing is planned together with the pouch format, film structure, seals and any added features such as zippers or valves.
Yes. Include brand colour references and the intended colour application when requesting a quotation or artwork review.
The material structure is selected around barrier needs, product type, filling process, distribution conditions and desired shelf life.
