Freeze out the competition
With red-hot digital printing
No other in-store packaging has to grab customers’ attention as fast as frozen-food packaging. In addition to the normal distractions—signage, aisle displays, squeaky shopping-carts—frozen-food packaging is often displayed behind a thick-framed glass door or in an open-top freezer that requires customers to lean over and in to shop. Plus, the packaging itself is ice cold. You can’t blame shoppers for wanting to make a quick decision. But we make it easy for them to pick your frozen products with our award-winning printing techniques, anti-fog windows and vivid graphics that showcase the product at its best, making frozen foods look homemade and irresistible. And that’s the cold truth.
