Examples of decorative and processing techniques
The decoration of the cap and container is crucial in determining the first impression of a product.
At VESSEL JAPAN, we offer a wide variety of processing options that enhance the individuality of your brand and solidify its value.
Here are some typical examples of processing techniques that enhance design and functionality.
- Offset printing, screen printing
- Precise detail and vibrant colors
Offset printing is suitable for delicate expressions such as photographs and gradients.
Silkscreen printing is characterized by its strong color and texture due to the thickness of the ink.
You can choose the most suitable method to match your design.
- Flexographic printing
- Achieves a uniform and beautiful finish, ideal for tube containers.
The flexible printing plate conforms flexibly to the curved surface of the container, and the oil-based ink produces even, vibrant colors.
It offers excellent quick-drying properties, ensuring consistent quality and cost-effectiveness even in mass production.
- Hot stamping
- A metallic shine that creates a sense of luxury.
This technique involves transferring gold, silver, and other foils using heat and pressure.
It adds a metallic sheen that cannot be achieved through printing, giving the product a sense of luxury and a distinctive accent.
- Coloring, pearl coloring
- A wide range of colors created from materials
By incorporating pigments into the raw materials, the product itself is given color.
By incorporating pearlescent agents, it is possible to create an elegant luster and deep texture reminiscent of pearls.
- Coloring of the polyfoil outer layer
- Combining metallic texture with barrier properties.
The outer layer of the polyfoil container, which has an aluminum layer, is directly colored.
While utilizing the rich luster unique to metal, it achieves a high level of balance between protecting the contents and design.
- Matte coat, leather coat
- The moment you touch it, you feel its superior quality.
A special coating is applied to the surface.
We enhance added value through both sight and touch, offering options such as a subdued, understated "matte finish" and a "leather-like" texture that feels smooth and comfortable in the hand, reminiscent of a luxury car.
Stretch label application
This is a decorative method that involves attaching an elastic label to the tube.
In addition to reproducing complex graphics and special textures that are difficult to express with printing, it enables efficient high-mix, low-volume production by applying different labels to plain tubes.
- Virgin seal
- Proof of being "unopened" delivers peace of mind and safety.
Seal the product opening with a sticker.
By maintaining quality until immediately before consumer use and preventing unauthorized opening by third parties, we guarantee brand trust and product safety.
- Matte texture, matte PP molding
- A sophisticated and luxurious feel, and resistance to fingerprints.
By applying fine irregularities (texture) using a mold during the molding process, or by using special materials, a matte finish with reduced gloss is achieved.
It offers a superior feel and also boasts functionality that makes scratches and fingerprints less noticeable.
Hot stamping strip processing
A ring-shaped foil is transferred to the base of the cap.
By incorporating metallic, shimmering lines, the overall silhouette of the product is highlighted, enhancing its sense of luxury.
Coloring
By kneading pigments into the raw materials, the product itself is given color. By mixing particles of different colors and materials into the resin, it is also possible to express textures similar to natural stone or ceramics.
Pearlescent finish
By incorporating pearlescent pigments into the material, it is possible to create an elegant luster and deep texture reminiscent of pearls.
- Vapor deposition processing
- Overwhelming, mirror-like metallic luster
This process involves depositing metal (such as aluminum) onto a surface under vacuum conditions, resulting in a beautiful, mirror-like finish similar to plating.
Despite being made of plastic, it achieves the substantial feel and shine of real metal.
- Gold crown processing
- Aluminum cover with the finest decorative finish
This process involves placing an aluminum shell (crown) over a plastic cap.
The cool, metallic feel and texture give the product a definite sense of luxury and a substantial presence.
