Direct Screen Printing

The perfect alternative to labels

Durable and stylish bottle and container decoration

Direct screen printing offers a unique way to decorate bottles and containers of various materials – without the need for labels. This technology applies the design directly onto the surface with maximum precision and durability. We use UV screen printing, which involves UV inks and light curing instead of high-temperature firing – making the decoration process fast, high-quality and environmentally friendly.

A proven technology built to last

Screen printing remains one of the most popular techniques for decorating glass. Thanks to the direct application of UV inks and curing with light, the decoration is exceptionally resistant and long-lasting. The inks bond firmly with the glass surface and create a premium look that can withstand even the most demanding handling.

Striking details that catch the eye

Direct screen printing opens up a wide range of creative options – from matte and glossy finishes to thermochromic (color-changing with temperature) and luminous (UV-glow) effects. It’s the ideal choice for brands that want their products to truly stand out.

Efficient high-volume production

At Authentica GlassDecor, we use state-of-the-art carousel printing technology that enables fast and precise decoration at scale:

production speed – up to 50 units per minute
automated ink application – up to 9 colors at once
maximum precision – electronic positioning system
360° printing – seamless full-wrap decoration
printing on various shapes – round, oval, flat, slightly conical or square bottles and packaging

A sustainable way to decorate

Unlike ceramic inks, UV screen printing doesn’t require high-temperature kiln firing. This significantly reduces energy consumption and offers a more eco-friendly decoration alternative. The UV inks are instantly cured with light, dramatically lowering the carbon footprint of the entire process.
