Shrink Sleeve Opaque White

Gravure inks excel in producing clean whites with maximum opacity, surpassing many other print processes. The utilization of strong, opaque white ink not only minimizes the adverse impact of container ingredients on the packaging design but also enhances the visibility of fine line work and color graphics, making them appear exceptionally striking.
