We Got Digital

Small quantities. Fast turnaround. Fully custom.

Our digital printing technology makes custom coffee bags more accessible for smaller orders, without the need for traditional printing plates. With low MOQs and fast production, you can test new designs, launch seasonal coffees, or produce multiple SKUs without committing to large volumes.

Digital printing for custom coffee bags

Digital printing gives coffee roasters and brands more flexibility when creating custom printed coffee bags. Without the need for traditional printing plates, it makes smaller production runs more practical and allows brands to create packaging that is tailored to individual coffees, blends, or seasonal releases.

For specialty coffee, packaging often needs to communicate much more than a brand logo. Origin, producer, variety, processing method, roast profile, tasting notes, roast date, and other product information can all be incorporated directly into the artwork. QR codes, graphics, variable text, and other design elements can also be used to connect the physical package with additional information online.

This flexibility is particularly useful for coffee businesses managing multiple SKUs or testing new products. Different coffees can have their own artwork while maintaining a consistent visual identity across the product range. Digital printing also makes it easier to produce smaller quantities, making it a practical option for new brands, limited releases, seasonal coffees, and product testing.

Custom printing can also replace separately applied labels, creating a cleaner and more integrated package while reducing the need for additional label materials.

Depending on your coffee and packaging requirements, you can further customize your bags with:

  • Different bag styles and sizes
  • Different material structures, including recyclable and compostable options
  • High-quality digital printing and special printing effects
  • Matt, gloss, and other surface finishes
  • Degassing valves and other functional features
  • QR codes, variable information, and other printed details
  • Different quantities for different products or SKUs

Digging Into the Technical Details

Our HP Indigo 25K digital press uses an integrated spectrophotometer and automated colour management to help match your approved colour standards and maintain accurate, consistent colour reproduction throughout production. This is particularly important for coffee brands that need their packaging colours to remain consistent across different designs, SKUs, and repeat orders.

Unlike traditional gravure printing, digital printing does not require printing plates. This reduces setup requirements and makes digital printing a more efficient option for smaller production runs, while also allowing multiple designs to be produced within the same order.

Digital printing can also be used across a range of coffee bag materials and structures. Depending on your application, options can include kraft-based materials, high-barrier structures, recyclable mono-material PE, and other suitable substrates.

One of the key advantages of digital printing is production flexibility. Lower setup requirements make smaller MOQs practical for new product launches, seasonal coffees, limited editions, and brands managing multiple SKUs. For standard digital printing projects, production can also be completed quickly after artwork approval, depending on the bag structure, quantity, and finishing requirements.
