Groundbreaking innovation in can-decorating technology

We are immensely proud that we created the world’s first digital can decorator, now operating at Ball Packaging Europe.

Designed and built to withstand the demands of industrial printing, Tonejet’s 2-Piece Can & Cap Digital Decorator is a highly versatile system designed to operate short-to-medium print runs for a number of applications. From premium products to special promotions, or event and location specific products, it offers a fast turnaround with amazing results.

Tonejet’s Digital Decorator then allows for different subsequent images to be printed without stopping the production line, or changing printing plates or printing inks, making the whole process streamlined and efficient.

As well as traditional graphics, our high resolution imaging process means high-quality photo images can also be printed.

Customised print runs that don’t compromise on quality and productivity; this cutting-edge technology is a must for market leaders looking for a competitive advantage.
