Print perfect

Nolato Medical Pharma Packaging can now print Braille directly onto plastic containers.  The process developed by Nolato Jaycare in the UK allows a lay down of UV cured ink with a thickness of up to 0.5mm, directly onto the surface of a plastic container. The screen printing facilities onsite were adapted to maintain an even and consistent print height, which is crucial for any Braille. 

The printing has been analysed by the Royal National Institute of Blind People (RNIB) in the UK and also meets the current EU directive for Braille on pharmaceutical packaging. The RNIB also commented on the fact that the Braille print offered superior definition when compared to some instances of Braille that has been embossed through pack or label.
