Printing on Cardboard

Printing on Cardboard

Printing on cardboard doesn’t just consist of printing on box materials for packaging and delivery items, there is also another layer to this versatile material that includes arts and crafts printing, printing on cardboard for displays, and printing onto heavy-duty corrugated sheet materials for signs and promotions, and other uses. Cardboard can be organized into different thicknesses and corresponding uses. From kraftboard, to fluted cardboard of different weights, to high-end honeycomb and “falconboards” for sign and display purposes, there many different cardboard print applications that we’re showcasing in the following examples.

Printing on Cardboard for Product Packaging

We have multiple machines that will print on different roll-fed cardstock for creating boxes and packaging items. Print and cut onto a huge range of kraft papers and card stock with integrated TrueVIS printer/cutters and get outstanding color results for on-demand packaging items. For high-end packaging prototypes and display boxes, the VersaUV LEC2 series printer/cutter is ideal for printing and cutting packaging prototypes and short-run boxes. With the addition of Gloss ink textures, you can add embossed lettering, special textures, and other unique finishes to make truly stand-out packaging products.

Printing on Cardboard for Shipping Applications

While the IU-1000F high-volume printer can print on industrial sized sheets of cardstock for shipping box applications— printing directly onto 4'x8' sheets of cardboard, LEF2 series printer/cutters can print on heavy card roll-stock for certain packaging and shipping applications. Roland DGA also offers a VersaUV LEF range of flatbeds that are idea for printing directly onto small boxes for on-demand shipping and packaging.

Often referred to as honeycomb and small cell board, the sign and display version of cardboard for signs and graphics is known as falconboard and is an eco-friendly, 100% recyclable material available in full-sheet sizes and in different thicknesses. This material is ideal for board-printing on the IU-1000F high volume printer and for printing small signage with VersaUV LEF series flatbed printers.
