At Packaging Color Manufacturing (PCM) we specialize in screen printing for a wide variety of packaging solutions, catering to diverse industries such as food, perfumery, cosmetics, and home fragrance. Our expertise extends to glass, metal, and plastic containers.

Screen printing is a versatile technique for imprinting texts, logos, and images with impressive quality and durability. The process involves transferring ink through a stretched mesh on a frame and is widely employed for delivering vibrant and precise labels directly on glass containers, sought after because of their exceptional resistance to external elements. In our operations, we frequently utilize screen printing to seamlessly transfer intricate designs, including brand logos and product descriptions.

Screen Printing Decor on Glass

When it comes to glass printing, we meticulously control the ink film thickness by adjusting the mesh fiber diameter, allowing for the application of both thick and thin inks, meaning our screen printing services are adaptable to any glass container. Using UV inks and state-of-the-art printing machinery, we can also provide a personalized service with impeccable finishes regardless of bottle shape.

Key Elements in a Screen Printing Project

For screen printing on bottles and glass packaging, we meticulously develop permeographic forms. This process involves manufacturing and assembling frames, meshes, and image layers, each with specific characteristics enhancing the screen printing process. Benefits include:

• Use of metallic and reinforced screen printing frames to boast automatic self-tensioning, ensuring quality across all prints on the packaging. The screen printing mesh effectively regulates and measures ink quantity, seamlessly adapting to container shapes—whether circular like bottles and jars or accommodating the unique contours of concave and convex jars.
• Mesh and inks play a pivotal role in achieving maximum print quality. Our proprietary formulas, combining national, European, and imported compounds, guarantee success. The efficacy of a screen printing decoration project relies on meticulous mesh classification, thread tension, and ink flow.
• In the screen printing process, the image layer distributes ink, passing through a porous fabric to create the desired image. Simultaneously, the image layer blocks the screen mesh, preventing ink from reaching specific areas of the bottle or container—creating defined "no-image" zones.

The selection of the correct image layer is crucial, and our advanced technology offers a myriad of options. In all our bottle screen printing projects, we conduct exposure tests to optimize image creation, ensuring consistent and high-quality results.
