Custom Print Capabilities
Digital Printing
Your artwork can be placed on the front and back or wrap all the way around the Kanteen. Using the CMYK Digital printer allows you to tap into thousands of colours printed at once. This virtually allows you to print photo like images in a single location or wrapped 360 degrees around the Kanteen.
Artwork: Full-colour (CMYK + varnish). Print the full length of a product (up to 8.6") in a single print cycle. Top-to-Bottom print technology. At the same time, print full-wrap images up to 360° around.
Colours: Brushed Stainless (no paint), select stock colours, approved Klean Coat colours.u
Lead Time:
4–6 Weeks after approval. Brushed Stainless and select stock colours (printed in the AU).
Screen Printing
Your artwork can be placed on the front and back or wrap all the way around the Kanteen. Screen printing yields stunning results for one and two colour artwork and makes the most use of available print space with nearly full wrap capability.
Artwork: Works best with one- or two-colour artwork where tight registration is not needed. Additional colours are available. A vertical break of 8mm is needed in all artwork.
