Letterpress printing, also known as printing from above, is a proven printing method where the areas to be printed on the printing form are raised. Ink is applied to these raised areas, allowing detailed images and text to be transferred onto different types of materials.
This technique offers unique advantages for indoor applications where it is applied to the production of conventional labels and decorations. For outdoor applications, letterpress products can be protected by varnishing or laminating, greatly extending their life and resistance to the elements. BBH offers these protective treatments as part of its comprehensive letterpress service.
