Printing is done at high speed, making it the ideal printing technique for larger volumes. Flexography is a rotary relief printing technique that involves <strong>flexible print stamps<\/strong> (also known as \u2018clich\u00e9s\u2019 or \u2018photopolymer plates\u2019). The image to be printed is positioned higher, in relief, on the print stamp, hence the term &#8216;relief printing&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p>A separate print stamp is made and a specific colour of ink is mixed for every print colour featuring in your logo or design. Our presses can print up to 8 colours. The possibilities range from <strong>simple line prints to high-quality full-colour prints<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Productieproces_drukkerij_alpagro_packaging1.jpg\" alt=\"Productieproces drukkerij alpagro packaging\"><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Productieproces_drukkerij_alpagro_packaging3.jpg\" alt=\"Productieproces drukkerij alpagro packaging\"><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Productieproces_drukkerij_alpagro_packaging4.jpg\" alt=\"Productieproces drukkerij alpagro packaging\"><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Productieproces_drukkerij_alpagro_packaging6.jpg\" alt=\"Productieproces drukkerij alpagro packaging\"><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Productieproces_drukkerij_alpagro_packaging7.jpg\" alt=\"Productieproces drukkerij alpagro packaging\"><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Productieproces_drukkerij_alpagro_packaging8.jpg\" alt=\"Productieproces drukkerij alpagro packaging\"><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Productieproces_drukkerij_alpagro_packaging9.jpg\" alt=\"Productieproces drukkerij alpagro packaging\"><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Productieproces_drukkerij_alpagro_packaging12.jpg\" alt=\"Productieproces drukkerij alpagro packaging\"><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Productieproces_drukkerij_alpagro_packaging11.jpg\" alt=\"Productieproces drukkerij alpagro packaging\"><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/alpagro-packaging-drukkerij-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"Alpagro packaging drukkerij\"><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Productieproces_drukkerij_alpagro_packaging13.jpg\" alt=\"Productieproces drukkerij alpagro packaging\"><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>3.
