Menus

Hard Binder Menus

An excellent dining experience starts with a menu that informs and amplifies a restaurant's cuisine and brand. Custom menus present a rare chance for restaurants to show their originality and differentiate themselves from the competition. In addition to showcasing a restaurant's offerings, a well-designed menu can influence the mood of the entire dining experience.

The opportunity to highlight a restaurant's distinctive offers is one of the main advantages of bespoke menus. Restaurants can highlight their trademark dishes and display their culinary prowess by collaborating with a designer to build a custom menu. A finely crafted menu can be especially significant for eateries that focus on a particular cuisine or offer distinctive foods that are uncommon to the area.

Custom menus also enable you to develop a consistent brand experience. A well-designed menu can strengthen the entire brand image of a restaurant, creating a sense of consistency throughout the dining experience. Brand consistency can be achieved in your menu design by using particular fonts, colors, illustrations, or photos predetermined by brand guidelines. The menu's font and color scheme should enhance the brand image and produce a unified appearance and feel. For instance, a fine-dining restaurant would likely utilize sophisticated font pairings. In contrast, a casual restaurant might choose a more approachable or playful font pairing.

There are a few essential components to keep in mind when creating personalized menus. Make sure the menu is simple to read and navigate first and foremost. Creating a user-friendly design entails adopting a typeface that is easy to read and understand while arranging the menu items logically and naturally. It's crucial to think about the menu's general hierarchy and flow when designing the layout, which can involve organizing the menu with subheadings to group items and emphasizing featured or exceptional dishes. Using high-quality graphics or pictures to highlight the cuisine will produce a visually appealing menu. Additionally, the menu should also contain facts such as prices, allergies disclosures, and other pertinent information.

In conclusion, bespoke menus give restaurants a unique chance to highlight their products and establish a consistent brand experience. Restaurants may differentiate themselves from the competition and provide their customers with a unique dining experience by working with a designer to develop a menu that is easy to read, aesthetically pleasing, and consistent with the overall brand image.

Special Finishes

Special Finishes for Pouches

Finishing touches can elevate your flexible packaging and give your pouches pizzazz. Just like a great dish deserves a complimentary sauce, a great pouch deserves a special finish.

In the consumer package goods industry, where shelf appeal is king, finishing your flexible pouches with a special flourish gives your product a distinct advantage. Four flexible pouch finishes are especially popular with product marketers and package designers. And other finishing touches are also available.

Four Finishes That Will Wow Your Customers

Like flexible packaging and pouches, special finishes come in many types, from cold foils and holographic foils to spot colors and spot UV/varnish. These flourishes can be applied to virtually any flexible pouch, including die-cast pouches with unique shapes.

Cold Foils. The cold foil technique prints metallic foil on a substrate (the primary layer of the pouch). Using a standard printing plate, an image is printed onto the substrate with the application of a cold foil adhesive. A dryer sets the adhesive, making it tacky to the touch. Foil placed over the substrate adheres to it, producing an image with a bright foil surface. Because it uses printing plates instead of foil stamping tools, this process is fast and cost-effective. Cold foil images can also be varnished or laminated to protect them, add further interest, and create a strong, durable package.

Spot UV/Varnish. This technique applies a clear shiny or matte coating to a specific area of a printed pouch, such as an important image. This process adds depth and contrast to any area you want to spotlight, drawing consumer attention to your most compelling image or text. Spot UV/varnish is a rich finish for many printed materials, including flexible packaging and pouches.

Holographic Foils. Holography is a technique that creates the appearance of three-dimensional images, producing eye-popping effects. It can also be used to add product security and anti-counterfeiting features. Our holography process uses a special film with a micro-embossed holographic pattern. Once a coating is applied to the substrate, the film is laid over it and run through a dryer to set. When the film is removed, the holographic effect remains on the substrate. It’s a special finish that really makes a statement.

Spot Color. This technique uses solid colors created from premixed inks that conform to the universal Pantone Matching System. Use of the PMS system guarantees that the colors you specify will be the colors that are printed on your flexible packaging or pouch, every time, in every print run, without variation. In this way, spot color maintains your branding and logo color standards and ensures consistency. It’s no wonder spot color is such a popular finishing option for pouches and other flexible packaging.

For any business who wants to showcase a product and dominate the shelf, special finishes for pouches can produce amazing results. Bring your imagination to SunDance. We’ll bring our award-winning skills to your project. Together, we’ll produce a perfect pouch with a wow-factor finish.

Child Resistant

Child-Resistant Zipper Packaging: The Optimal Choice for Avoiding Accidental Ingestion of Harmful Products

Certified Reclosable Packaging Provides an Added Level of Safety for Your Customers

Children are curious by nature, but sometimes their interest can get them into trouble, especially when they ingest something they shouldn’t. Our child-resistant zipper packaging is constructed with high-quality and functional materials and designed to protect small children from opening potentially harmful or hazardous products — giving parents more peace of mind.

As noted by the Consumer Products Safety Commission (CPSC), child-resistant packages are designed or constructed to be significantly difficult for children under five to open or obtain a harmful amount of the contents within a reasonable time but not difficult for normal adults to use properly. They add another level of poison prevention and can be used for numerous product categories, including:

This option also is perfect for Cannabis products, which most states require to be in child-resistant packaging.

Features and Benefits

By using resealable, child-resistant zippers requiring two-handed dexterity to open, products are vacuum sealed to keep contents fresh and dry for a longer shelf life. Plus, they’re odor-proof to lock in scents, so inquiring young minds won’t be as tempted to try to open them.

At Sundance, our flexible packaging services will complete your entire packaging journey. We’re able to produce and design child-resistant zipper packaging in both common and custom colors, sizes and styles, including:

• Lay Flat Pouches – 2 or 3 side sealed
• Stand Up Pouches – variety of gusset options

Third-Party Certifications

Our high-quality child-resistant zipper packaging has been tested and certified to meet regulations of:

• The U.S. Poison Prevention Packaging Act (PPPA)
• American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM)

Why Sundance?

With our design and printing expertise, we’ll help you find the best way to showcase your product through custom branded packaging. We offer food-safe packaging for direct and non-direct food contact to ensure your product not only looks appealing but also complies with regulations from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). In addition, our digital printing capabilities allow us to add finishes to increase the packaging’s durability or add dimension to the design.
