Rotary printing: Special systems required
Cylindrical printing is a printing process in which a design or logo is printed onto a cylindrical surface, such as a bottle. This process is frequently used for labelling and branding in the drinks, cosmetics and personal care industries.
Round bottles can be printed using various printing methods, including digital printing. The choice of printing method depends on factors such as the print run size, the type of bottle to be printed and the desired finish.
Printing on round bottles requires precise registration, as the design must be correctly aligned as it wraps round the bottle. The printing process must also take into account the curved surface of the bottle, as this can affect the way the ink is applied and the final appearance of the print.
Overall, printing on round bottles is a specialised printing process that requires specific equipment and skills. It is an important part of branding and labelling for many products and is essential for creating a strong, consistent brand image for products on the shop shelves.
