Who we are

Where careful hands meet remarkable machines.

Every medicine deserves a box that keeps its promise. At Supreme Art, that promise is made on some of the finest machinery in the trade: Heidelberg Speedmaster presses laying down five colours and a gleaming coat in a single pass, a hot-stamping machine that presses foil into the board with quiet precision, colour-shifting seals that guard against imitation, and a high-quality carton inspection machine keeping watch over the work. And when it is finished, we carry it to you ourselves, to every corner of Pakistan.

How it's made

Pre press

Every carton begins as an idea on a screen. Before a single sheet is printed, the artwork is designed, engineered, colour-matched and approved, then carried onto a printing plate in our own pre-press room.

On the floor

Art and design in-house: our designers create artwork, revise existing designs and engineer the carton structure up to the first proof.
Colour is managed against Pantone formula guides, with every shade matched by a specialised colour team before anything goes to plate.
Amsky computer-to-plate: the approved artwork is imaged straight onto the aluminium plate at 2,400 dpi, with no film in between, so every colour registers precisely on press.
Plates are processed, checked and stored in-house, and board is cut to the exact sheet size before it reaches the feeder.

How it's made

Press

On our Heidelberg presses the plate meets the board. Five colours and a coating go down in one pass; ink, colour and registration are set, then measured sheet after sheet against the approved proof.

On the floor

Heidelberg Speedmaster CD 102: five colours plus an inline coater, printing and coating in one pass at up to 15,000 sheets an hour, with sheet-to-sheet registration that holds across the whole run.
Heidelberg Speedmaster SM 74 with CP2000 control: five colours plus coater, up to 15,000 sheets an hour, with touchscreen inking control for precise, repeatable colour.
Every colour on the sheet, process or spot, is matched to the brand’s specified colours, with a choice of ink systems.
Colour is measured with a spectrophotometer against the approved proof on every run, not judged by eye.

How it's made

Post press

Printed sheets become cartons: coated, foiled where the design asks for it, cut, separated, inspected, folded, glued and packed for the client’s filling line.

On the floor

Bobst SP 102-E automatic die-cutter: up to 7,500 sheets an hour, cutting and creasing in one precise pass so each carton folds exactly on its lines.
A cylinder automatic die-cutter and a manual die-cutter take short and special runs; a hot-stamping machine applies foils.
UV, spot-UV, drip-off, food-grade and custom coatings, foils and colour-shifting security seals, all applied in-house.
A Swiss-built Bobst folder-gluer folds and glues tuck, lock-bottom and four- and six-corner cartons, counted and packed for delivery.

Quality

Medicine packaging doesn’t get second chances. We run documented quality assurance across every stage: incoming board, Pantone-matched colour verified with a spectrophotometer on press, coating checks, hand inspection of every unit carton by our QC team, and a digital job card that follows each order from board to delivery.

Colour standards: Shades are matched by a specialised colour team against Pantone formula guides, then verified on press with a spectrophotometer rather than by eye.
Security built in: Colour-shifting seals, hot-stamped and thermal foils and custom coatings are printed and finished as part of the carton, so they cannot be peeled off and reapplied to a counterfeit.
Full traceability: Tablets at every production stage record each job card as work progresses. Clients get access to the same tracking, so they can follow their own products through our floor.
Registered and compliant: Incorporated with the Securities and Exchange Commission of Pakistan in 2016, registered with the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Directorate of Labour under the Factories Act, registered with the Federal Board of Revenue, and a corporate member of the Sarhad Chamber of Commerce and Industry.

Quality

Incoming board inspection

Before printing begins, every batch of paper, duplex board, bleach board or film-laminated board is checked for grammage, thickness, surface condition and overall quality, and only released to cutting once it matches the specification for the job.

Quality

Safe material handling

Paperboard and printed sheets are moved on hand pallet lifters, so every stack travels supported, square and undamaged, and our team never has to lift heavy loads by hand.

Quality

Shade card approval

A reference shade card is prepared for every product, matched against Pantone formula guides by our colour team and approved by the client before the final printing run is released. The approved card then travels with the job.

Quality

In-house CTP plate making

Our own advanced computer-to-plate (CTP) system images the approved artwork directly onto the printing plate. Keeping plate making in-house gives sharp, accurate plates and consistent print quality from the first sheet to the last.

Quality

Printing quality control

During printing, our QC team uses a colour spectrophotometer to verify every shade against the approved targets, while checking registration, text content and barcodes against the approved proof. Every colour on the sheet, process or spot, is controlled at the press console throughout the run, however many the design calls for.

Quality

Coating inspection

Applied finishes, including UV and spot-UV, drip-off, food-grade and custom coatings, are checked for coverage, alignment, consistency and the required appearance before the sheets move on to die-cutting.

Quality

Carton inspection by hand

After die-cutting, our trained QC team inspects every unit carton by eye against the approved sample, checking colour, print defects, registration, text and missing elements, and removes any that do not match before folding and gluing.

Quality

Security features checked

Where a carton carries anti-counterfeit features such as colour-shifting seals, hot-stamped or thermal foils and raised spot coatings, each is checked for position, coverage and effect. Because these features are built into the carton, they cannot be reproduced by relabelling.

Quality

Digital Product Tracking

Tablets installed at every production stage let operators record each job card as work progresses, so every order carries its board lot, plates, press, operators and checks. Clients also receive access to this digital tracking system to follow the status of their products with us.
