Long-lasting inkless ballpoint pen for sustainable promotions

Your design printed in full colour directly onto the product

Digital printing applies ink directly onto the surface of the item using high-resolution print heads, much like an office printer. It allows full-colour reproduction of photographs, illustrations, and logos without the need for film positives or screens, making it a cost-effective multicolour printing option for short runs.

Advantages

• Reproduces full-colour images with high detail
• Perfect for designs with gradients and shading
• A cost-effective printing technique

Handicaps

• Less durable than techniques such as engraving or screen printing
• May be less cost-effective for large runs with simple designs

Small-detail printing on curved surfaces

Pad printing uses a flexible silicone pad to transfer ink from an engraved plate onto curved or irregular surfaces. Perfect for logos and small text on pens, keyrings, gadgets, and other compact items that are difficult to print using other methods

Advantages

• Prints exact Pantone® colours
• Works on curved and irregular surfaces
• High definition for logos and text
• Cost-effective for bulk orders

Handicaps

• Relatively small printing area
• Limited number of colours, especially in multicolour designs
• Not suitable for printing photographs or gradients

Laser engraving for an elegant and permanent finish

Laser engraving creates a precise and permanent mark on the product surface using a laser. Without the need for inks, it achieves a clean, indelible finish on materials such as metal, wood, plastic, or leather, making it widely used for keychains, trophies, and personalized pens.

Advantages

• Permanent marking that won’t fade with use
• High precision and detail, even for small text
• No inks or additional chemicals required
• Does not alter the texture or integrity of the item

Handicaps

• The engraving does not add color; it depends on the material’s natural tone
• On wood, the final finish will vary according to the grain
