Why Leading Brands Trust Printwell for Packaging & Printing in Ahmedabad
If you’re running a business and want your products and marketing to stand out, packaging and offset printing matter. That’s why many brands today choose offset printing, mono cartons, paper bags, and rigid-box packaging to bring quality, trust, and class to their target audience.
At Shree Printwell Offset Pvt Ltd, we hosted a knowledge sharing webinar to help designers and clients for better understand how great paper packaging and offset printing are done - from design to delivery. This blog captures the key highlights from that session and explains why Printwell is a trusted name in offset printing in Ahmedabad and beyond.

In this blog, we’ve gathered the best parts from that session. Whether you’re in food, ceramic, laminate, pharma, cosmetics, melamine, events, gifting, or any other industry, we’ve made it super-simple to understand.
Offset printing and Digital Printing: The Gold Standard in Commercial Printing
Offset printing and Digital printing is still the most reliable, consistent, and cost-effective method for high-quality paper products—especially in bulk. It produces sharp results, supports precise colour reproduction, and handles many paper types.
That’s why brands searching for offset printers in Ahmedabad choose us. With Heidelberg CD 102, Digital Printing machine and Komori UV presses at our facility, we can print everything from high-volume mono cartons to detailed, luxury rigid boxes. Whether you’re a brand manager at Cera, a design head at Somany, or a hospitality partner at Double Tree Hilton, offset printing and digital printing gives you the control and quality your packaging and brochures deserve.
The Paper Makes the Product
Choosing the right paper is one of the most overlooked steps in packaging design. Here’s a quick guide from the webinar:
• Brown Kraft Paper – Eco-friendly, natural look; great for one-colour printing.
• White Kraft Paper – Bleached for clean finishes; ideal for multi-colour shopping bags or raw-style boxes.
• Coated Art Paper – Glossy or matte surface; best for high-end multi-colour visuals like trade-show bags or product kits.
• Specialty Paper – Textured or coloured paper for ultra-premium gifting or luxury rigid-box packaging.
We’ve helped clients choose the right paper for food-safe packaging, cosmetic mono cartons, and textured paper bags with drip off printing finishes for visual depth.
File Prep 101: Avoiding Print Disasters
Design files can look great on screen—but not all are print-ready. Before sending files for print offset, we recommend:
- Use CMYK colour mode (never RGB).
- Outline all fonts to avoid changes during processing.
- Embed high-resolution images (300 DPI).
- Add bleeds and respect safe zones.
Our pre-press team works closely with designers and vendors to ensure every project is technically correct before it hits the press.

Making Colour Work for Your Brand
Brand recognition depends on colour. Using Pantone spot colours is key for consistency - especially for global brands. With our offset printing Ahmedabad setup, we use calibrated monitors and colour bars on every run, so whether it’s a ceramic sample binder or a food mono carton, the results match your vision and print well every time.
Special Finishes: What Sets Your Box Apart
A printed box is good. A printed box with drip off UV, soft-touch lamination, or foil stamping is unforgettable. We offer:
• Drip off printing (adds texture and gloss contrast)
• Soft-touch matte lamination
• Gold and silver foil stamping
• Spot UV
• Embossing and debossing
In the webinar, we showed how soft-touch enhanced cookie packaging for Double Tree Hilton Hotel. It protected the product and elevated the brand feel.
Rigid Boxes: Where Function Meets Experience
Rigid boxes aren’t just about looks—they serve a real purpose. A 5-star café inside the Fern Hotel asked us to redesign bakery packaging.
Challenges
• Keep cupcakes safe during delivery
• Preserve cream toppings
• Use food-grade board
• Make the unboxing memorable
We engineered a rigid box with snug inserts, tested it in real-world delivery, and created a design customers still remember.
Nine Steps in the Rigid Box Packaging - Design Journey
- Understand client goals and all products inside the package.
- Conduct market survey and competitor analysis.
- Choose the right packaging category (rigid box, mono carton, corrugated, etc.).
- Consider shipping and manufacturing needs.
- Develop dimensions and cavity design.
- Consult a printing company for paper, finishing options, and costs.
- Request an actual dummy/sample and check colour accuracy.
- Confirm product-safety rules and regulations (e.g., FSSAI, unit cost, origin).
- Prepare the print file: fonts, specs, proofread, CMYK, 3 mm bleed, 300 DPI images.
This is why we say we don’t just print rigid boxes - we engineer experiences.
