OUR INNOVATIONS
Printing is printing, unless you want it to entertain and grab the interest of the customer. Over the past 20 years QAL has pioneered the use and application of innovative print technologies. We'll help you add these technologies to your packaging to enhance shelf appeal and product interaction. Transfer the look or feel of your product to the package to create instant attraction and spur impulse purchases. Studies show that connecting two or more senses increases product appeal to a customer.
We offer innovations that always make a big difference in connecting with the consumer.
- Texture: We can give your visual message a tactile feel that prompts the consumers touch to your package.
- Prysmatic: Creates depth, motion and entertainment for your product's message.
- Foils: Foils sell the ideas of "quality product inside". But for many applications they were thought to be too expensive. QAL developed the application techniques that can make the "quality touch of foil" affordable on any size job. If you want attention, use foil.
- Scents: There is no better way to sell many personal care and cosmetics than with a scented label, card or carton. We have the processes and scents to awaken your customers noses to your product.
- Braille: QAL believes in offering solutions that help our clients meet the special needs of their customers. We offer a broad range of Braille printing options that are affordable and compatible with the needs of vision-impaired users.
- Glitter: Quite simply... it works. Our glitter ink options will help you create a festive or seasonal appearance in your print project. We can apply glitter in any pattern and our glitter will remain on the printed surface and not on the counter.
- Thermochromic: Products that need to tell the "how we work better" story will benefit from our Thermochromic inks. We offer inks that change color when heated or cooled so you will have the ability to demonstrate warning or proper use messages right on the package or label.
- Glow in the Dark: Our luminescent inks deliver bright, glowing effects to your application. Ideal for pharmaceuticals and other long-term use products that the consumer will need to access in low light situations. For products marketed to children, our glow in the dark inks have instant appeal. The entertainment of Glow in the Dark ink from QAL never gets old with the consumer.
- Photochromic: This is a higher level ink application that gives your product a polished look. We are experts in both complex and simple photochromic ink applications.
- Color Shift: We developed the application to bring our customers labels and packages to life by adding motion. When you move past our Color Shift printing, the image moves with you... which draws attention and creates a desire to touch the product. QAL can help you with when and how to use color shifting in your printing to get the results you want.
- Brand Protection: The protection of your trademarks and branding are critical in today's market where so many products are pirated. A QAL label that has been printed to imbed brand protection is the answer. You and your distributor can quickly spot a "knock off" and take proper action. Our brand protection printing technology is one of the best investments you can make when protecting yourself against pirates and product liability claims.
