GCC's pad printing technique is perfect for irregular-shaped cosmetic packaging

23 Jun 2015

Pad printing is a technique that applies decoration to a non-flat object. It is commonly used for decorating packaging as it usually involves 3D packaging figures and complicated decorative patterns.

The latest dome powder cosmetic compact from GCC is particularly well designed as its domed arch provides a broad area for branding. Pad printing is one of the many solutions available to decorate the dome powder compact, but unlike silk screen printing, labelling or hot stamping, pad printing offers a better graphic resolution and is not limited to the surface shape, making it a better option for companies who are looking for complete product branding.

GCC's pad printing technique is cost effective and in addition to working well on the dome powder cosmetic compact, can be used on any type of cosmetic packaging shape resulting in high quality graphics whatever the intricate pattern to be printed.

Swipe & define eyeliners

Felt-tip eyeliners are typically the choice when it comes to creating a dramatic (or not so dramatic) cat-eye.

The elegant double wall bottle shape provides more options to choose from and can be enhanced with a variety of decoration techniques.

A sensory journey provides esquisite decoration

Exquisite packaging decoration completes the look and conveys a brand's image, striving to form an emotional connection with the consumer.
