Offset Printing
Offset printing is a commonly used printing technique where the inked image is transferred (or "offset") from a plate to a rubber blanket, then to the printing surface. When used in combination with the lithographic process, which is based on the repulsion of oil and water, the offset technique employs a flat (planographic) image carrier on which the image to be printed obtains ink from ink rollers, while the non-printing area attracts a water-based film (called "fountain solution"), keeping the non-printing areas ink-free.

Digital Printing
Digital printing is the reproduction of digital images on a physical surface. It is generally used for customization of print media. With the introduction of recent digital presses by Ikon, Canon, and others the quality of reproduction is 95% of high quality offset lithography. When used correctly digital printing can greatly impact an overall communication campaign.

Flexographic Printing
Flexography (often abbreviated to flexo) is a form of relief printing and is the method of printing most commonly used for packaging (labels, tape, bags, boxes, banners, etc.). A flexographic print is made by creating a positive mirrored master of the required image as a 3D relief in a rubber or polymer material. A measured amount of ink is deposited upon the surface of the printing plate (or printing cylinder) using an engraved anilox roll whose texture holds a specific amount of ink. The anilox roller is covered with small wells that enable it to transfer ink to the printing plate evenly and quickly. The print surface rotates, contacting the print material which transfers the ink.
