The Best of Digital and Flexo

Featuring the premium print quality and embellishment capabilities of flexographic printing combined with high-resolution, plate-less digital imaging, this hybrid press delivers the best of both worlds. Brands benefit from exceptional shelf appeal, enhanced design flexibility, and the production agility needed to efficiently manage multiple SKUs, variable run lengths, versioning, and faster time-to-market.
Multiple Processes. One Powerful Platform.
One of the greatest advantages of hybrid printing is its ability to seamlessly combine multiple print and finishing technologies within a single production workflow. This gives brand owners greater creative freedom to develop distinctive labels that capture attention, elevate shelf presence, and create memorable consumer experiences.
Depending on your branding objectives, labels can be enhanced with:
- Vibrant, high-definition digital graphics
- Eye-catching metallic foil accents
- Engaging tactile textures and dimensional embellishments
- Multi-Sensory Varnishes and Specialty Laminations
- High-opacity whites and specialty inks
- Personalized content and versioning
This combination gives brand owners more opportunities to create distinctive packaging while supporting a wide range of production requirements.
Built for Brands that Want More from Their Labels
The Gallus G5 Hybrid gives brand owners the freedom to create labels that capture attention and elevate shelf presence. Health and beauty, personal care, food and beverage, nutraceutical and household brands can combine premium printing with sophisticated embellishments to create packaging consumers notice, touch and remember.
Flexibility adds another important advantage. Hybrid printing works especially well for new brand launches, short-run seasonal promotions, limited editions, and variable printing. Therefore, brands can create more targeted, timely and customized packaging without sacrificing visual impact or print quality.
