Prepress & Design
The art and science of getting your brand to press exactly as imagined — distortion modeling, trapping, ECG separations, plate output and proofing, all calibrated to the specific press your job will run on.
From file to plate
Our prepress team takes everything from final press-ready PDFs to native designer files and prepares them for press. Every job runs through preflight, trapping, separation and a calibrated proof before plates are output.
- G7 master facility prepress
- Shrink distortion modeling (3D-based)
- ECG / 7-color separation
- Contract proofing systems
- Brand color libraries & spot mix matching
- Step-and-repeat tuned to each press
Distortion for shrink sleeves
A shrink sleeve graphic that looks right on the screen will look stretched on the bottle unless you model the shrink curve and pre-distort the artwork. Our distortion specialists work bottle-by-bottle so the finished sleeve registers on every seam and graphic cue.
Brand color libraries
Each account has a managed color library: Pantone matches, custom spot mixes, ECG builds and Delta-E tolerances. We log every approved standard and recall it automatically for reorders — so color does not drift over the life of the program.
Design partnership
Bringing us in during design — not after — typically saves time, plates and headaches. Our prepress and design team can advise on substrate selection, decoration feasibility, color separation strategy and sustainability options before art is finalized.
