China is a country of etiquette. We have an unwritten tradition of giving gifts every holiday. Gifts express a friendship, and gifts are a bridge to communicate feelings between people. Friendship is included in gifts, which are enjoyable. The gift boxes we saw are very exquisite. The design on the outer package is special, and it also has a light golden light. It feels very good to touch with your hand. It looks high and has a texture. It is also suitable to give this product to someone. Do you know why the surface of the gift box presents such an effect? That’s because after the printing process, the light golden light is the gold stamping process. There are many printing processes like this, which can be used to make gift boxes. Now, HugPak Packaging will introduce the classification and application of printing processes in detail.

  1. Embossing

Embossing process is to deform the surface of the gift paper box under certain pressure and temperature by using a mold with concave and convex lines to form a certain pattern. The embossed patterns include Leni pattern, cloth pattern, fresh water pattern, crescent pattern, golden sand pattern, pear pattern, etc. Different textures can bring different decorative art effects to the surface of the packaging box. For example, the surface of the tea gift box used to install tea can be embossed with fresh water lines. The tea leaves give the impression that the tea fragrance is fresh and elegant. The combination of fresh water lines and appropriate colors looks very elegant and simple, which can show the temperament of tea products. Increase the beauty and added value of the product. Make the paper gift box more attractive and aesthetic.
