Brand owners demand both agility and scale — pushing finishing houses to offer more than one printing solution. That’s where digital and flexographic print methods step in as complementary power tools — and why Traco Packaging invests deeply in both.
At Traco Packaging, we offer both digital and flexographic printing to provide the best-fit solution for every packaging run—whether you’re launching a new SKU, scaling an established line, or versioning across multiple markets. Digital printing allows for quick setup, zero plate costs, and vibrant, full-color graphics with high precision, making it ideal for short runs, prototypes, and seasonal or promotional packaging. Flexographic printing, on the other hand, is built for efficiency at scale, offering high-speed output, excellent registration, and cost-effective production for longer runs.
Digital printing shines when timelines are short and flexibility is key. With no tooling or plate changes required, you can move from design to print in days—not weeks—while still getting outstanding print quality. Traco uses advanced digital presses to produce shrink sleeves, pressure-sensitive labels, and flexible packaging in low to medium volumes, supporting fast-turn launches and frequent design updates. It’s also perfect for test batches, marketing pilots, or personalized product lines.
For high-volume packaging jobs, Traco’s flexographic printing offers excellent consistency and performance. It supports a wide range of substrates—films, foils, paper, and more—and can incorporate special finishes like matte varnish, spot gloss, or metallics. Once plates are created, flexo enables fast, repeatable production with minimal waste and tight color control, making it ideal for core product lines that need cost efficiency and long-run stability.
What sets Traco apart is our ability to seamlessly bridge digital and flexo workflows under one roof. Whether you’re starting small and scaling up or managing a complex packaging portfolio, we can match your goals with the right print strategy—without switching suppliers. Our team brings decades of packaging print experience, backed by in-house prepress, dieline development, material sourcing, and color management—ensuring your packaging not only looks great, but performs from shelf to shipment.
Traco’s team supports the full lifecycle from dielines and prepress through press checks, pouch converting, and line trials, with tight color management (Pantone/ICC), food‑contact compliant materials, and rigorous QC for registration, seal integrity, and shrink performance.
