There are many types of glue-based inks that can be used in offset lithographic printing.

CMYK (Full Color) 
Process shading, or CMYK, uses four colors: cyan, magenta, yellow, and black. These colors are combined in different amounts to create all other colors used in printing. This method is most commonly used in the packaging and printing industries.

Pantone Matching System color (PMS)
PMS color, also called Pantone Matching System color, is mainly used for printing specific spot colors. These colors are made using special inks. Each color has a Pantone number or name from a color chart, which helps ensure it looks exactly the same when printed, no matter how it appears on a computer screen.

Printing: Coating
Print coating makes your product look better and last longer. It is added to protect the product or give it a nice visual effect.

Aqueous Coating
Aqueous coating is a clear, fast-drying, water-based coating used to protect printed materials. It adds a shiny, glossy, or matte finish that helps resist dirt and fingerprints. This coating makes items like postcards, business cards, folders, and catalogs more durable—especially during mailing or everyday use. It also offers better scuff-resistance than standard varnish.

Glossy UV Coating
Glossy UV is a high-gloss, strong coating that makes printed pieces look bold and eye-catching. It brings out bright colors and adds a premium shine. This coating is great for making photos, logos, or special offers stand out, though it may be too shiny for some uses.

Matte UV Coating
Matte UV gives the print a smooth, flat finish without any shine. It adds a soft, luxurious feel and is often used for products like cosmetics or jewelry packaging where a subtle, elegant look is preferred.

Soft-Touch Coating
Soft-touch coating gives printed pieces a smooth, velvety feel. It creates a gentle texture that encourages touch and feels high-end. It’s fast-drying, environmentally friendly, and doesn’t affect print color or quality. This coating is perfect for making packaging stand out in a subtle, classy way.

Additional Information

Additional Cut-Outs
Extra cuts, shapes, or openings can be added to any custom box design to match specific measurements or create unique looks.

Window Patching
Window patching adds a clear plastic film to a cut-out area on the box. It lets part of the product show through while keeping it protected and clean. This is a great way to give customers a sneak peek at what’s inside without opening the package.

Embossing
Embossing raises a design or text above the surface of the box, creating a 3D effect you can see and feel.

Debossing
Debossing is the opposite of embossing. It presses the design or text into the surface of the box, creating an indented effect.

Foil Stamping
Foil stamping uses heat and pressure to apply a thin metallic foil—usually gold or silver—onto paper or packaging. A heated metal die presses the foil onto the surface, leaving a shiny and eye-catching design.

Perforation
Perforation is the process of making small holes in a material to make it easier to tear or remove a part. For example, a flap on a box might have perforation along the edge so it can be easily torn off without damaging the rest of the box.
