Shelf appeal is the target for all folding carton printers and converters, and innovative packages and promotional items that jump off the shelves are key. The vast majority of shoppers are now making buying decisions at the last minute, based on the package design on the shelf. At the same time, brand owners are demanding shorter runs of packages as they segment the market and produce seasonal, regional or event-driven products.

So what makes your package stand out from the rest?

A Clear advantage

Scodix presses offer genuine brand differentiation with Scodix Sense™ digital enhancement that literally stands out from the sheet.

What effect can you make?

By producing premium packages that have Scodix SENSE™ effects, in-house, folding carton manufacturers can give brand owners exactly what they need – innovation and differentiation. Segmentation finds its solution too with short runs based on specific target audiences.

Digital enhancement translates into higher profits on short to medium runs that keep up with the requirement for market segmentation or testing.

High gloss and variable densities

Nothing makes more of an effect on the look of a package than the embossing or high gloss looks that can be produced so easily in one pass, in-house, on the Scodix Digital Enhancement Presses. For luxury goods this is almost a prerequisite, but now you can achieve these same tangible effects for lower cost packages and still maintain profitability.
