Pad Printing Services For Plastic Components UK

Pad Printing Services For Plastic Components UK

Branding a plastic component properly usually comes down to a printing method that can cope with the part's actual shape, not just a flat surface. Andel Plastics offers pad printing, also known as tampography, from our Birmingham facility, transferring logos, markings and instructions onto complex 3D plastic components with accurate, repeatable results run after run. Custom jigs and fixtures hold each component in the correct position for printing, which is what keeps placement consistent across a full production batch rather than drifting from one part to the next. We support single colour printing with RAL or Pantone colour matching, and offer both nylon and steel etched plates depending on run length and durability needed. Components can come from our own injection moulding facility or be supplied by the customer for printing alone. Vector artwork support means logos and designs translate cleanly onto the printing plate without loss of detail.

For UK manufacturers who need reliable, cost effective printing on plastic components with genuinely awkward geometry, this is exactly the kind of finishing process pad printing was designed to handle.
