As partners in this project it is important moving forward that you appreciate, understand, and agree to our Production terms and sign off on our turnaround times along with our quote so that you are well-aware of all the work that goes into your print project.

Please note that our stated turnaround time on our site begins once Final Artwork has been approved by you, and not once the order is placed, nor when the initial proofs have been sent.

Timelines provided are only estimates. All orders go through strict quality control and we cannot guarantee exact production dates due to unforeseeable errors on the press. In these cases we reprint for free, and this adds to overall production time.

USE WHITE INK SELECTIVELY underneath parts of your actual prints to make important text and other design elements on your label pop. White ink supports prints by providing an opaque base so that anything printed over it will have looked like it was printed on solid paper or plastic, instead of transparent material.

FLOOD THE WHOLE AREA UNDERNEATH WITH WHITE INK for solid logos and images to ensure that your printed-right-on-the-bottle look achieves better contrast and brighter, more saturated colors, as it were on an opaque material.

LEAVE OTHER AREAS CLEAN OF WHITE INK to make them appear more washed out, as in using a watermark effect. We don’t really suggest this, unless you absolutely know the effect you are going for. Prints without white ink underprinting can lead to unpredictably faint or faded-looking prints. If you’d like to pull off a creative concept, we suggest that you test this first by doing a HARD PROOF to see if it was indeed the aesthetic effect that you were going for.

 
TIP : If you are looking to place these labels on transparent packaging, protect your labels and give them a true seamless “no label” look by getting your product labels done in mirror image prints, and then affix them on the inside of pastry box windows, or clear plastic packaging. Granted, these won’t be as crisp, but your customers will be able to appreciate your clear labels and run their hands on a smooth surface, while your actual clear labels are safe and won’t snag on anything outside.
