Frequently asked questions
How does my logo get onto the can?
You supply your logo as a vector file or high-resolution PDF. We place it in our print template, check the colours in CMYK and print it directly onto the can.
Which file do you need for can printing?
Ideally a vector file (AI, EPS or PDF). Pixel images work too if they have at least 300 dpi at final size. Colours must be set up in CMYK.
Can I print only the logo instead of a full-surface design?
Yes. Many customers combine a background colour with their logo. The can is still printed all the way around, as there is no unprinted back.
Can white be printed on aluminium?
Yes. A white base coat is applied before the colour print so light colours and white areas cover properly.
What is the minimum order to print beverage cans?
The minimum order is 504 cans – workable for single events or test runs too.
What does it cost to print a logo on a can?
Printing is included in the can price. The 250 ml energy drink starts at CHF 2.80 per can (504 units) and drops to CHF 1.50 per can from 12,960 units, incl. 8.1% Swiss VAT.
Is the can printed or labelled?
The can is printed directly across the full 360° surface. No stick-on label is needed.
Which print data do you need?
CMYK artwork based on our template (PDF or InDesign). We check your files free of charge before printing.
Do I get a sample before production?
You receive a digital proof for approval before printing. Sample cans from existing projects are sent free of charge on request.
How long until the cans are delivered?
Around 3 weeks from your design approval to delivery at your Swiss address.
Who takes care of the food labelling?
We do. Ingredients, nutrition values, fill quantity, shelf life and recycling notes under Swiss food law are part of our print-data check.
What does printing beverage cans cost?
The price depends on quantity, format and drink type. You receive an individual quote within 24 hours.
