The press lays down the colour; finishing makes it feel right. Coatings, lamination, spot gloss and matte contrast turn an ordinary carton into a premium, shelf-ready package — while still keeping it fully recyclable paper.
SHMI handles the whole path from repro and proofing to the final finish, so the packaging you approve is the packaging your customer opens.
Gloss or matte protection that seals the ink and resists scuffing.
Film lamination for surfaces that must survive heavy handling.
Selective gloss that makes logos and imagery lift off the shelf.
Low-migration, food-contact-safe inks for FMCG and pharma.
PMS-matched inks so your brand color is your brand color.
Water-based, curbside-compatible finishes end-to-end.
Getting the finish right starts before the press runs. We proof on the real board, tune ink density and coatings to your stock, and sign off the colour under retail lighting — so the box that ships is the box that sells.
We hold the inks to your brand standard and check each batch as it runs — so your customer sees the same blue every single time.
