Can you print my logo on boxes and bags?

We offer in-house hot-foil printing to add your business name or logo to suitable packaging. Send us the boxes or bags you’re interested in, your quantity and artwork, and we’ll discuss the options.

What is hot-foil printing?

Hot-foil printing uses heat and pressure to apply a foil finish to your packaging, creating a branded impression.

Which foil colours are available?

Foil options include gold, silver and black. Contact us to discuss a finish that complements your packaging.

How much does a printing block cost?

Each printing block costs £50 excluding VAT. This is a one-off charge per block. If you need blocks in different sizes, the £50 charge applies to each block.

Will I need more than one printing block?

Different box sizes may need different block sizes. We’ll discuss the boxes you’re ordering with you and recommend suitable sizes and how many blocks you need before confirming the charges.

Can my printing block be reused?

Yes, your block can be reused for future printing orders. If you’ve ordered printed packaging from us before, mention your previous order so we can check your existing block’s details and suitability.

How much does printing cost?

Printing costs £0.15 per box excluding VAT. For bags or other items, contact us to confirm the printing charge for your project.

What artwork should I send?

A vector PDF or Adobe Illustrator file is preferred. If you’re unsure whether your artwork is suitable, send us the files you have so we can discuss any preparation or design support required.

Will I see an artwork proof?

We provide an artwork proof for you to check before printing. Please review your logo, wording and contact details carefully and send any corrections in writing.

Can I order a small quantity?

Our hand-operated hot-foil printing equipment can accommodate short runs. Available quantities depend on your chosen packaging and project. Send us the product reference and quantity you need, and we’ll confirm the options.

Can you help with multi-colour printing or a fully bespoke design?

We can discuss offset printing for projects requiring multiple colours or more detailed designs, as well as bespoke packaging and displays. Share your ideas, branding and requirements so we can explore suitable materials, colours and finishes.

How long will my custom order take?

Contact us to confirm the lead time for your specific project. Include your required delivery date with your enquiry so we can discuss whether it can be accommodated.

What should I include when requesting a quote?
