Hi everyone,

I wanted to share a quick video overview we recently put together showing the complete production cycle of premium custom packaging. Since a lot of the magic happens after the sheets come off the 4-color offset press, I thought this community might appreciate seeing the entire sequence from digital layout to the final glued box.


In the video, we briefly walk through:

  • Prepress & Design: Structuring the core layout, fonts, and color separation.
  • Printing: Laying down the design on high-quality stock.
  • Post-Press Finishing: Laminating (matte/glossy films).
  • Surface Decoration: Applying hot stamping and scratch-proof UV coatings to make the branding stand out.
  • Mounting: Adhering the printed surface paper to a heavier white card for structural integrity.
  • Die-Cutting & Assembly: Precision die-cutting the grid and the final gluing/folding process.
I’m curious to hear from the press operators and shop owners here—what kind of post-press finishing equipment (like die-cutters or laminators) are you currently pairing with your offset presses to handle premium packaging jobs?

We specialize in packaging machinery solutions over at Kylin Machines, and we always love seeing how different shops optimize their post-press workflows.

Feel free to reach out if you ever want to talk machinery!
