Custom Matte Boxes
Prior to finalizing packaging designs, laminations are not always discussed in detail. In some cases, this can lead to rash decisions that can be detrimental to your packaging, products, or branding. Essentially, matte lamination makes the product ready for consumer consumption. Choosing a lamination or coating that matches your artwork and colors is essential to the final packaging design.

Matte lamination - what is it?
The easiest way to detect matte lamination is by observing how light reflects off the surface. Compared to glossy laminations, matte laminations reflect almost no light, leaving the surface flat and burred. As well as feeling almost soft to the touch, matte lamination is an excellent option for packaging that intends to be more interactive. Matte lamination can flatten colors, making them seem a touch muted with a shallower depth of color. For luxury packaging, it is often used to convey a sophisticated and modern appearance.
Our diverse range of packaging styles will meet your needs
We offer our customers a variety of packaging styles, including straight tuck, reverse tuck, auto-bottom, hang tab, and more. No matter what style you choose for custom matte packaging, our highly skilled designers will customize the boxes based on your size and shape preferences. In addition, you can add unique finishing techniques like gold or silver foiling, embossing, debossing, and aqueous coating to the boxes to increase their visual appeal. The distinct style and refined and finished appearance of the boxes will certainly attract an audience. We are also offering exciting features such as die-cutting, which will enhance the look of the matte lamination boxes.
