What is an additional process?
At PakFactory, an additional process refers to a special finishing that can be applied to your packaging. Additional processes are all subject to additional fees.
Some of our additional processes include:
- Window patching
- Embossing / debossing
- Foil stamping
- Spot UV
- Special die-cut
- Pantone printing
Note: Foil stamping comes in a variety of different colors and patterns. Due to the vast variety, it is best for you to provide us a reference photo to pinpoint the exact foil stamping you are looking for. If you do not have a reference photo, our product specialists will recommend the best one for your packaging.
