Printing

GML mostly uses water based inks to ensure our food contact papers conform to appropriate regulations for non migration. We blend the inks on site to match pantones and use a spectrometer to ensure we have a good and consistent colour match. Our presses are equipped with camera monitoring to ensure we can check print quality whilst high speed running.
Plate making is to a high standard allowing us to offer fine detail reproduction of customers’ designs. Ahead of plate making, we will supply an electronic colour proof for signing off.
