DESIGN
Our team of experienced designers are an essential ingredient to any merchandise campaign. We'll mock up your concept or design for your approval before commencing production. We also provide logo redraws, typesetting, and design layouts.
We prefer to work with EPS Vector files or High Resolution Editable PDF files, but sometimes we'll just work with whatever you can provide!
PRODUCT SOURCING
Although 4Branding was founded in 2008, we've been in the industry since 1995, working in Perth, Melbourne, Sydney, and Hong Kong. What does this mean for you? We have very well established factory and supplier relationships. We can create products most other suppliers can't, and our production is fast and cost effective.
BRANDING OPTIONS
Colourflex Transfer
Colourflex® is a CMYK+W digital print process, used for branding apparel and fabrics.
Debossing
Commonly referred to as ‘Blind’ debossing, a heated custom metal plate is pressed firmly onto the product leaving an impression of the artwork. Thermo debossing is also available on certain products, using additional heat to create a unique and eye-catching two-tone finish.
Digital Label
Digital adhesive labels are used to brand products that cannot be branded with any other method. They are printed with a digital printing press and applied to the product.
Digital Packaging Print
Digital Packaging Print offers a single-pass CMYK digital print onto paper bags and pre-cut flat-pack corrugated media.
Digital Print
This production method is used for printing media such as paper, vinyl and magnetic material used in the manufacture of labels, badges, and fridge magnets etc. This printing process uses CMYK values.
Direct Digital
Direct digital printing involves the transfer of ink directly from the print heads of an inkjet machine to the product and can be used to produce both full colour and closely matched spot colour branding on flat or slightly curved surfaces.
Embroidery
Embroidery is an excellent way of branding bags, apparel, and other textile products. It offers higher perceived value and a depth of branding quality which other processes cannot match. Embroidery uses rayon thread which is stitched into the product and has a slightly raised effect.
Imitation Etch
Imitation etch is a special pad printing ink used for producing an etch-like effect on glass products.
Laser Engraving
Laser engraving is a permanent branding process that engraves artwork into the surface of the product using a laser. Different materials produce different engraving finishes, to avoid uncertainty pre-production samples are recommended.
Pad Print
Pad printing uses a silicone pad to transfer an image to a product from a laser etched printing plate. It is one of the most popular and affordable ways of branding promotional products due to its ability to reproduce images on uneven or curved products and print multiple colours in a single pass.
Resin Coated Finish
This CMYK branding process is produced by printing artwork onto a vinyl material with strong adhesive on the reverse. The branded area is then coated with a crystal-clear resin. Once dry, the finished decal is applied to the product and the adhesive forms a permanent bond.
Rotary Digital Print
Direct to product rotary digital printing involves the transfer of UV ink and a varnish coating from inkjet print heads and can be used to produce detailed gloss artwork using both closely matched spot colours and full colour branding.
Rotary Screen Print
Rotary Screen Printing is achieved by forcing ink through a fine mesh screen with a squeegee onto the product and is ideal for cylindrical objects.
