How to design holographic mylar bags?

In the custom mylar bags market,ordinary mylar bags can no longer satisfy people's pursuit of novelty.Exquisite and well-designed packaging can still attract a lot of attention, but now more and more people are pursuing different and special mylar bags. For example, more and more special-shaped bags have attracted people’s attention,and a kind of special soft touch material bags are also very popular, but the most able to attract the attention of the younger generation is holographic mylar bags.

Holographic mylar bags generally use computer dot matrix lithography technology, 3D true color holographic technology, multiple and dynamic imaging technology, etc., and transfer the hologram with rainbow dynamics and three-dimensional effects to PET, BOPP, PVC or coated substrates, and then use lamination, hot stamping, transfer and other methods to make the surface of the mylar bags obtain a certain holographic effect.Due to different diffraction angles, when viewed from different angles, it can show colorful product logo images, text and background patterns, shape gradients, size gradients, color gradients, etc. the visual impact on consumers is incomparable to other packaging materials.

How to design holographic mylar bags

Holographic bags have been popular in the market for a while.And you can be found that some holographic bags are abvious, but some are not.And when we help customers improve the artwork design, we often find that customers don't know howto design the holograghic bag to achieve the greatest effect.

As we know, the holographic bags are made of three layers of materials, the outermost layer of PET, the innermost layer of PE, and the middle layer of holographic film. And the artwork will be printed on the outermost layer of PET, and then laminated with the middle layer of holographic film and the inner layer of food-grade PE film. So you can find that the holographic film is fully covered by the artwork,which means the holographic will be covered by the ink.

Then let's introduce how we print. Generally, in order to get a better color effect, we will print a layer of white backgroud on the bags, and then print the customer's artwork on the white backgroud.But in holographic mylar bags printing,we will give up to spread white color to avoid cover the holographic,so that the holographic can be reflected better.

If the customer's design is a full-color design without any blank, the color will completely cover the holographic film, especially dark colors, will completely cover the holographic effect,so that the holographic will be useless. So in order to get a better holographic effect, two options can be considered when designing the bag.

2. The second recommended solution is to do partial hollowing out to fully expose the holographic film to achieve a partial full holographic effect, which can highlight some important information and get fancy effects at the same time.

And hollow effect on the design does not mean that the bag is see through. Since the laser film is aluminized, even if the design is hollow, it will not be seen through.The product inside the bag will not be displayed.
