Aluminizing materials and printing techniques

Since Jiangyin Unicom Group launched vacuum aluminized printing products in 2000, the amount of vacuum aluminum plating materials has been increasing year by year. Now, it has launched the “Azalea”, “Economy” and other branded aluminum label printing products.
Jiangyin Unicom believes that the main reasons for the increase in sales of this material are:
First, the material meets the national environmental protection policy;
Second, the use of the material can reduce packaging costs by about 10% (for Unicom only);
Third, the cigarette is not easy to curl when packaged, which makes the packaging more convenient, and the packaging speed can be comparable with white cardboard, which improves work efficiency to some extent.
In the process of using vacuum aluminum plating materials, Jiangyin Unicom believes that the material has a high finish and is suitable for offset printing and gravure printing, especially for UV printing. However, there are several points to note in the printing process:
1. Vacuum aluminum-plated paper is not resistant to friction, so it is necessary to reduce the number of overprints and the speed should not be too fast;
2. The ink viscosity should be lowered to avoid affecting the composite effect of the product;
3, vacuum aluminum plating materials should not be stored for a long time, in order to prevent the product surface oxidation.
Shenzhen Weicheng Industrial Co., Ltd. has been using vacuum aluminum plating materials to print cigarette packs since 2002. It is now Yunnan Qujing Tobacco Factory, Yunnan Kunming Tobacco Factory, Guizhou Bijie Tobacco Factory, Sichuan Mianyang Tobacco Factory, and Hunan Lingling Tobacco Factory. Shaanxi Baoji Tobacco Factory, Jiangxi Guangfeng Cigarette Factory, Zhejiang Ningbo Cigarette Factory, etc. provide smoke-plated aluminum-plated products. Up to now, the printed products of Shenzhen Weicheng aluminum-plated materials have increased by 50% from the original. After a long-term production practice, Shenzhen Weicheng has successfully solved the problem of production and printing of aluminum-coated paper. Such as the poor adhesion of ink, the phenomenon of paper color, bending and so on. In addition, Shenzhen Weicheng also developed a unique holographic printing technology, positioning printing technology, mirror surface oil technology, giving the vacuum aluminum coating materials more abundant expression.
Shenzhen Weicheng believes that the printing techniques for aluminized prints mainly include the following:
1. Pay attention to the matching of printing ink and printing materials, adopt the POP type quick-drying ink suitable for ordinary printing;
2, the surface coating of aluminized paper is suitable for water-based coating;
3. The moisture content of aluminum-plated paper should be controlled between 5% and 6%.
Shenzhen Weicheng believes that the aluminized material has both a shiny metallic feel and a decorative nature, but it is also environmentally friendly and meets the development trend of packaging materials in the future. At present, Shenzhen Weicheng mainly focuses on technology development. It hopes to bring new changes in the form of new technologies to the cigarette pack printing industry and establish a new concept of environmentally friendly packaging and printing so as to attract more cigarette factory cooperation.
