At Grafica Atestina we have been producing leaflets for many years and, thanks to the experience we have gained, we now supply leaflets of different types and sectors, with all kinds of formats and closures, supplied flat, with parallel folds, with stapled and milled booklets.
The printing of the leaflets can be black/white, four-colour or pantone.
We print on 60g or 50g Usomano paper. To improve the readability of the information in several languages, we also produce the multi-page booklet format, in minim fold, stapled or milled.
We produce front and back leaflets in a single step to ensure greater printing and registration precision. All this allows us to speed up production and optimize order times. During the folding phase we guarantee maximum precision, we use separate stations and in-line cameras with code reading, and automatic expulsion to avoid mixing. We handle the light paper with care and meticulousness, checking the register, the matching of the folds and the layout of very small fonts.
Our customers, having the possibility of jointly managing the production of leaflets and cases, have the advantage of obtaining uniformity in printing, certainty of punctuality of the order and reduction of the environmental impact of transport for delivery.
This is our most critical safety process. The folding stage is monitored by high-speed inline cameras. These cameras read codes (e.g., barcodes, pharmaceutical codes) on every single sheet and trigger an automatic ejection system for any non-compliant or unrecognized piece. This ensures absolute certainty that there is no mixing between different batches and product codes.
This is a common challenge, especially when it comes to international regulations. The ideal solution is a multi-page booklet. Instead of a single, unreadable sheet, we create a small “booklet” (8, 12, 16 pages, or more) that organizes the information in a clear and orderly manner. We provide it stapled, resulting in a compact, easy-to-use finished product.
The benefits are threefold: quality, punctuality, and optimization.
- Printing consistency: by working with a single technical partner, we ensure perfect color consistency (e.g., Pantone colors) between the case and the leaflet.
- Guaranteed on-time delivery: by managing the entire order in-house, we synchronize the two production runs and eliminate the risk of delays caused by third-party suppliers.
- Logistical efficiency: a single shipment reduces the environmental impact (and costs) of transportation and simplifies warehouse management.
We print according to customer specifications. Although many package inserts are black and white, we are equipped to handle four-color process printing (CMYK) or specific Pantone colors. Color printing is often used to highlight logos and safety warnings, and our precise registration ensures a flawless result.
This is a critical issue we are well aware of. Our high precision during the folding process is specifically designed for automatic packaging lines (cartoning machines).
We use separate, highly controlled folding stations, where the alignment of the folds is verified to within a tenth of a millimeter. This ensures that the finished package insert has consistent rigidity and flatness, essential characteristics for insertion by automatic loaders without the risk of jamming. For your peace of mind, we can provide a test sample to directly verify machine compatibility on your production lines.
