Lenticular Printing
We've been printing lenticular images since the early 1990's but good quality lenticular printing is still considered to be a challenge to produce, and is therefore a speciality.
We've got the capabilities to produce truly eye-catching special effects such as 3D print, motion, morph, flip and zoom. We've also got access to a wide range of finishing options to create that truly special product.
Our lenticulars are often used at point-of-sale, as part of high-security counterfeit-prevention systems, as well as to augment print such as magazine covers, dvd covers, gift cards, coasters, postcards, etc.
Making good lenticular print requires teamwork. We can apply lenticular effects to any image but for the best results we'd suggest that we work togther to develop appropriate designs that create the best effects possible.

Here are some simple tips on the effective design and use of lenticular:
-
The 3D effect positions elements of the artwork on different spatial planes to create an illusion of depth. The artwork should take into account that the lenses will run vertically on the product, and that it can also be used in conjuction with other effects.
-
The Motion effect uses a series of frames to create animated print. The effect works best when lenses run horizontally on the product and the product is tilted up and down, by a sideways motion can also achieve good results.
-
The Morph effect displays a transformation from one visual image into another, useful for visually explaining a change from old to new e.g. a brand logo. The effect works best when lenses run horizontally on the product and the product is tilted up and down, by a sideways motion can also achieve good results.
-
The Flip effect switches the image from one to another, or switches elements of the image ‘on’ or ‘off’. The effect works best when lenses run horizontally on the product and the product is tilted up and down, a sideways motion can also achieve good results.
-
The Zoom effect does exactly what it says on the tin. The effect works best when lenses run horizontally on the product and the product is tilted up and down, a sideways motion can also achieve good results.
-
A Combination of effects can be achieved, the lens and sheet orientation should be carefully considered to produce an effective product.
