The packaging and printing of color boxes generally requires some special process treatment, such as polishing glue, matte glue, varnish, etc., which is generally based on the following elements:
1. maintain the color and luster of the printed matter. The face paper printed on the color box packaging is printed with ink, which is easy to cause the printed matter to fade under the effect of ultraviolet light;
2. waterproof effect, because the color box packaging is paper products, in order to avoid rotting in water; Improve the brightness of the product. After special appearance treatment, the product has a soft and rough feeling, and more attractive to consumers.

There are also two types of film covering for packaging and printing materials:
1. light film (bright film). The bright film itself is bright. After the color box is covered with bright film, the appearance is bright.
2. dumb film, which is a foggy appearance; Matte matte appearance after coating.
gilding
At present, the stamping method of color box packaging box is electrochemical aluminum hot stamping foil, which mainly adopts the method of heating and pressurization to transfer the text of the letter box to the surface of the printed packaging paper. The colors of gold, silver, green, blue, laser, etc. are called hot stamping.
Bronzing is characterized by clear, beautiful pictures, dazzling colors, wear resistance, etc. in the printing of cigarette packets, the bronzing process accounts for more than 85%, and it is also widely used in the production of commercial packaging.
