Printing/ Special Craft Techniques
Printing Samples
All Polmac presentation boxes, promotional boxes, gift boxes and packaging can be overprinted with a logo or text, using the following printing methods:
- Metallic Foil Blocking
- Laser Engraving (With optional colour infill)
- Screen Printing
Before printing, we will need your serviceable artwork, at 1 - 1 scale (actual size), by email attachment, in pdf, eps, black vector format.
You will also need to confirm the colours you require and the position of your logo and / or text on your boxes. Colours for metallic foil blocking and screen printing are available on request.
If you are unsure about which method of printing to choose, or any aspect of the printing process, we will be delighted to help you, using our specialised expertise and knowledge.
Special Craft Techniques
Pyrography
Pyrography is one of the traditional techniques used by Polmac (UK) Ltd to provide special, decorative features, motifs and effects on wooden boxes and as a base for other decorations.
Our craftsmen use an electric powered, hand held pyrographic tool to burn patterns and decorative shapes onto wood, to create visually stunning and original effects that are then over painted with natural wood and colour stains and / or block colours.
Metal Strip Inlay
This is a technique that uses thin gauge, corrugated or plain brass or nickel plated metal strips as lines to create patterns, decorative motifs and borders.
A narrow groove is cut into the wood and the metal strips tapped in, flush with the surface of the wood. Any raised edges of the metal strips are then sanded off, on a special sanding machine, to provide a flush, even finish.
Hand Carving
Traditional hand carving techniques are used to create textured areas, motifs and patterns on the surface of the wood, using special hand carving tools.
