Services
Pad Printing
Pad printing transfers 2D images onto 3D objects using silicone pads. Ideal for complex surfaces like cylindrical, concave, or raised areas, it ensures fine detail and multicolor registration. We handle high-volume orders with automation and UV inks for durability.
Screen Printing
Screen printing applies thick ink layers for opaque, vibrant designs on flat or cylindrical surfaces. We use conventional and UV inks for rigid materials like glass, metal, and plastic, supporting both small and bulk orders with PMS color matching.
Hot Stamping
Hot stamping uses heat and pressure to apply foil onto surfaces, creating reflective or holographic effects. Suitable for plastic, wood, and leather, its ideal for logos, raised text, and contoured parts without requiring pretreatment for some materials.
Digital Printing
Industrial digital inkjet printing delivers high-precision four-color process prints plus white ink on substrates like plastic, glass, and metal. This method supports complex designs and rapid prototyping for medium to high-volume production runs.
Laser Marking
Laser marking etches permanent designs on plastic, metal, and painted surfaces. Its ideal for promotional items and parts requiring durable, high-contrast markings without inks or chemicals, ensuring precision and repeatability.

This company is amazing! I am launching a brand and had a supplier on Etsy back out at the last minute. I had to scramble and buy parts on Amazon, and Unique Assembly worked with me to rush a print job in just 2 days. Steve was great at communication and execution. This is an amazing local company that I will continue to support.

Working with them was a pleasure not a pain, like it can be with custom printing companies. Our high-end corporate logo on our dietary supplement canisters look better than planned. Great price, again, we thought it would be much higher. Also, don't be shocked by the elegant packaging, haha, our lids were very well protected and organized. UltraHealth LLC fully recommends Unique Assembly & Decorating. Especially their customer service department.
