Printing on paper bags is a specialized art that requires careful attention to detail in order to ensure the quality and longevity of your product. The process of printing on paper bags requires a very fine mesh screen, and it's important that the ink doesn't rub off during the packaging process. Printing on paper bags also requires heat treating at various points during production so that no moisture remains on the surface of your custom bag when it leaves our facility (otherwise your product may get wet or soggy). This can be done by passing the printed paper through an infrared dryer before boxing them up for shipping.
The printing process is a specialized art, and the care it requires is immense. The following are some of the steps involved:
The first step in the printing process is to design your custom paper bag. This is an important step, as it will determine the quality of your printed bags and how well they sell.
The design should be approved by you, the customer, before we begin printing on it. The design should also be approved by us (the printers), as well as our distributor if they are involved with distributing products for us or other companies like ours.
Printing on paper bags requires a very fine mesh screen. The finer the mesh, the better the results and more expensive it is. Strong enough to withstand the pressure of the printing press, this mesh screen is also used in other industries such as pharmaceuticals, cosmetics and food processing industries.
The ink must be applied to the paper bag with care so that it doesn't rub off during the packaging process.
The ink should not rub off during the packaging process.
The ink should be applied to the paper bag with a fine mesh screen, and then carefully spread over as much of its surface area as possible.
In order for the ink to set, it must first be dried. This is accomplished by heat treatment. The ink can be dried by passing it through a heated plate or roller, or by placing the printed bag into an oven and applying heat to it.
The quality of the paper bag is an important part of printing on paper bags. If you use a cheap or low-quality material, it can result in ink rubbing off during packaging or even worse--the ink not sticking at all!
A good way to ensure that your printing on these bags will be successful is by applying heat and pressure after applying the ink. This ensures that the ink dries and sets correctly so that it doesn't rub off during transport or storage.
In conclusion, printing on paper bags is a complex process that requires a lot of care and attention to detail. It's not something you want to do yourself at home!
