Among their latest achievements, TNT Global Manufacturing has developed the decorative cap’s plate of Viking, the latest perfume for men, designed by the perfumer Olivier Creed. 
The plate is made of zamak with a white bronze finish. It has been engraved with the logo and pad printed in red. The project required to combine the pattern of the logo and the constraints of the zamak, to reveal the details and finesse of the engraving. TNT Global Manufacturing further encountered two other challenges: the pad printing thickness on a curved surface, and the perfect alignment with the logo. |
