3. Add inserts and activation labels

Ask us about additional printed inserts and activation labels — and let us deliver.

  • The envelope and carrier serve as the physical gateway to your brand, and we utilize high-end print finishes to make that entry point stand out. We offer lithographic and digital printing capable of rendering complex brand colors with pinpoint Pantone accuracy across different materials.

    We also specialize in "security print" techniques that double as brand elements. This includes custom interior security tints inside envelopes, where your logo is printed in a repeating pattern to prevent the card from being visible through the paper.

    These specialty print treatments transform standard collateral into a secure, multi-sensory brand asset that provides a much higher perceived value.

  • Card collateral must survive a grueling mechanical journey through high-speed sorters and the postal system. We guide you in selecting high-tensile paper weights and fiber orientations that resist tearing and "dog-earing" during the automated inserting process.

    Our carriers are engineered to handle the localized stress of a mounted card—whether it’s a 5g plastic card or a 20g metal card—ensuring the adhesive or die-cut tabs don't fail under the centrifugal force of the sorting machines.

    Our focus on the mechanical durability of the print ensures that your brand’s visual identity remains pristine from the moment it leaves our press until it lands in your customer's hands.

  • In the world of secure mailings, the "print-to-personalization" bridge is the most critical technical factor. We design collateral templates with exacting geometric tolerances to ensure that variable data—like names, addresses, and 2D barcodes—aligns perfectly with window envelopes.

    By engineering these templates to account for the "creep" of high-speed folding and inserting machines, we eliminate the risk of misaligned data, ensuring a 100% accurate bond between the cardholder and their information.

    Our production team also focuses on the compatibility of substrates and inks. This technical foresight ensures that the crispness of the initial brand printing is maintained throughout the entire automated fulfillment cycle, resulting in a professional, high-definition final product.
