Excellent quality and great service

Very happy to have chosen Newton Print to get our new product boxes printed. We had quite a complex requirement... 2 box sizes, split between 15 variations, with varying quantities of each. Tristan (at Newton Print) was extremely helpful (and patient ) whilst we were going through the process of finalising designs and determining the best print options for our products. The final product looks fantastic... and our customers and resellers have said the same! Box card and print quality is excellent and they do our products proud! Would highly recommend Newton Print. Great job guys! Phil T Director EMIAS THERAPEUTICS

Very happy with quality service

Newton Print developed a printed mailer wrap for our sample packs, significantly reducing our plastic packaging and resulting in a stunning mailer that really grabs the attention. We are very pleased with it and have had so many comments from customers who love getting our sample packs through the door now!

More information

What is a packaging sleeve?

A packaging sleeve is a band of cartonboard that simply wraps around a product’s container, such as food trays, shrink-wrapped products, tubs, round pots and boxes. Sleeves can be fully customised with full colour printing on both sides so it can contain important information, like ingredients and nutritional information, whilst displaying a brand’s messaging. Great as a sustainable, cost-effective packaging solution especially for products with multiple SKUs.

 

What can product sleeves be used for?

Due to their cost-effective and simple design that easily slips over your product, custom printed food packaging sleeves are ideal for:

In addition, we offer a wide range of sleeve printing options to suit your requirements including full colour printing, pantone spot colour printing, compostable and recyclable materials, matt, soft-touch, anti-scuff and gloss finishes, with bespoke die-cutting and low MOQ’s down to 1,000 units.

Our bespoke printed sleeves are produced in-house for fast turnaround and cost-efficiency. Talk to our team to find out how we can produce your sleeve packaging from your artwork, or help you to create your own set of print-ready designs. Let’s work together to get your products ready for retail fast!
