PACKAGE PROTOTYPING. MOCKUP MEDIA.
Package prototyping isn’t rocket science. When customers ask for a colour proof, what they’re really saying is, CAN YOU PRINT THE RIGHT COLOUR, DAVE.
Nobody needs a cockup with a mockup. So why show them anything but the real deal?
You name it, we’ve got it. Film, labels, paper, pouches – all you need for package prototyping, and at a price that’s hard to beat.
This is CGS’s Real Substrate Proofing material – package prototyping media at its finest.

FILM / PE BAG
Salt and vinegar, anyone? The example here is a standard use case for this reverse-printed ORIS Transfer Film IV, which was laminated to the substrate.
Print on a ROLAND VS-540 with CGS-XG inks. The file format’s CONTONE, the final print will be flexo. Heat-happy, no fade under temperature; white-friendly, crisp and clean (‘crisp’ and clean – geddit?)

FILM / SHEET METAL

PET BOTTLE LABELS
Rinse and repeat, you know the drill. This is CGS’s clear, self-adhesive ‘no-label’ look label, this 750ml PET bottle took CMYK + spot silver, gold, and green – simple, crisp, superb quality.
Usually for use on the ROLAND VS-300i. Great colour take-up, fast drying, and authoritative tactility (look and feel is spot on).

FILM / SNACK BAG
ORIS Transfer Film IV – good example of laminating reverse print transfer film on composite aluminium stock (we’ve shown it with CMYK + 2 spot colours).
Usually for use on the ROLAND VS-300i – with CGS-XG inks. Superb with metallic inks, and with translucent inks. Heat-sealed seams won’t come to pieces when your customer’s handling the proof.

FILM / ZIPPER POUCH MOCKUP

FILM / METALLIZED CARDBOARD
With its nanoporous coatings, uniform ink absorption, and faster drying times, this is where CGS’s mockup media film excels.

Digital mockups suck.
