Direct applied decorations
At the same site where our wine bottles are produced, we can arrange to add customised decorations using up to 5 colour screen print, hot-stamp foils or Decal transfer (for CMYK or fine details). Your bottle of choice from our range, can be decorated using the techniques described below. Decoration elements are baked on and become part of the glass, making them scratch resistant. Screen print, being the most resilient option.
For wine bottles selected from our range the set up cost is minimal but the MOQ for screen printing is usually 10,000 to 14,000 units (10 pallets – depending on the design & bottle choice).
Summary of 3 Embellishment Options
There are three techniques available to decorate Chandler’s range of wine bottles at the bottle factory. These options include:-
- SCREEN PRINTING – is the fastest, most automated application and by far the most cost-effective decoration technique.
- HOT-STAMP FOIL – is striking with a range of foil colours that 'pop', but is best used when decoration designs are more simple – and must be applied to label straight zone and/or opposing label panel areas.
- DECAL TRANSFER – is the most time consuming, as it is hand applied, but provides the opportunity for extremely detailed or elaborate decorations, making it the most flexible decoration technique. It can include CMYK and foils and can be applied to large radius curves, such as the shoulder of a Burgundy bottle.
