Laser:

Laser engraving is a personalisation technique that uses a beam of light to burn the surface of an object. As the name suggests, the logo is engraved, and the item’s original colour is not retained. The advantages of this technique include its cost-effectiveness, its ability to provide a more formal and polished finish, its precision, and its durability, as it is very difficult to damage. The materials best suited for this type of marking are metal and wood, although some ceramic and glass containers are also designed to accommodate it.

Pad Printing:

Pad printing is a type of personalisation that allows the logo to be printed in one or more colours using a pad. This is prepared in a specific way, with a metal or plastic plate where the logo to be printed is engraved using a stamp for each colour of ink. By using this element, the technique stands out for its versatility, as it can be applied to different types of surfaces. This option is also economical and simple to implement, which is why it is one of the most popular in the corporate gift sector.

Debossing (relief printing):

Debossing is a type of printing in which the logo or design creates a recessed effect on the material’s surface. This adds a distinctive touch to the customisation, as the logo's shape is perceptible to the touch. A flat surface is required to apply this technique. The visual result is subtle and conveys a sense of formality. Notably, notebooks are a popular type of merchandise that can incorporate this technique.

Digital Label:

This technique involves digitally printing the logo onto a roll of adhesive paper. The printed roll is then processed by a cutting machine to trim it into the desired shape, creating stickers that are ready to be applied to the promotional product. The advantages of this method include the ability to print in full colour and customise the shape, offering great flexibility in the final design.

Resin Drop:

This printing technique, also known as doming, involves printing the logo onto a surface and then applying a drop of resin over it. The resin is transparent with a rubbery texture, and its thickness will vary depending on the size of the design. This personalisation method is cost-effective and not only protects the logo but also enhances its visibility. As a result, the logo becomes more durable and, with the added visual effect, it increases the likelihood of being noticed by more people.

Screen Printing:

Screen printing is one of the most popular techniques for personalised gifts. It involves the use of a stretched mesh, onto which a plate with the logo is attached. Ink is then applied, reproducing the image onto the gift. For multi-coloured designs, a separate mesh is required for each different colour. This process is simple, inexpensive, and durable. Moreover, it offers the significant advantage of adapting to various types of surfaces, allowing a wide range of merchandise to be personalised through screen printing.

Screen Transfer :

Screen transfer involves printing using heat to apply screen-printing inks that have been deposited onto paper. While conventional screen printing applies the ink directly through the mesh, the use of a heat press and transfer paper allows for more intricate designs and greater adaptability to different surfaces. This technique is particularly suited for textile merchandise such as T-shirts, caps, backpacks, or bags. Although more expensive than traditional screen printing, the final result is more visually appealing, especially for logos with a wide range of colours.

Digital Transfer:

Digital transfer is a printing technique that allows you to print a logo in full colour as well as photographs. For this, a special paper containing the image is used and by ironing, it is transferred to the article. This is intended for textile items such as bags, backpacks or T-shirts. The great advantage of this alternative is that it uses a type of ink that is more resistant to washing than traditional inks. However, it is always advisable to use cleaning programmes that are not too aggressive and to avoid ironing over the image. In this way, the design will remain in good condition for a long time.

Reflective Transfer:

Reflective transfer is a technique suitable for creating a logo that attracts more attention and adds an extra element of security by increasing visibility (since, as its name suggests, it reflects light). In this method, the logo is printed using a special silver screen-printed ink on paper, which is then transferred to the object using a heat press. It is only intended for textile products such as bags or backpacks. This technique is genrally used on sports related gifts.

Circular Screen Printing:

While conventional screen printing uses a mesh stretched with a plate, placing the object flat for the subsequent application of the ink, circular screen printing must be done differently. In this case, the promotional gift will remain on a small structure that holds it, the mesh descends and then the machine will rotate the item so that the color is applied in a circular way. It maintains the advantages of being simple to apply, economical and with an attractive finish. The method differs for use on bottles, mugs and other similar gifts.
