Digital UV printing and 360° rotary digital printing

Digital UV printing is a full-color branding technology for promotional items, especially suitable for smooth and flat surfaces. It uses CMYK + white, so it handles fine details and color gradients very well. The 360° rotary version allows print around selected cylindrical products. You can find other methods on the printing technologies page.

What is digital UV printing and rotary 360° printing?

In digital UV printing, the artwork is printed directly onto the product and then fixed with UV light. The result is a sharp, vivid print with strong detail reproduction. This method is suitable for many product shapes when the print area is technically appropriate.

Rotary 360° digital printing is designed for cylindrical products without handles, such as sport bottles, selected thermal mugs and similar drinkware. The design can run around a larger part of the circumference, giving your branding stronger visual impact.

We provide digital printing only on promotional items supplied by us. Before production, we always prepare an artwork proof for approval, so placement, size and final appearance are clear in advance.
