Harnessing the Power of Personalisation: Honsen’s Digital Printing Expertise and Variable Data Printing Solutions

In the ever-evolving landscape of consumer engagement, variable data printing (VDP) stands out as a transformative technology. With giants like Coca-Cola leading the way through their “Share a Coke” campaign, the power of personalization in marketing is undeniable. At Honsen, we harness the capabilities of advanced digital presses, like those from HP, to offer unparalleled customization in printing. This integration of technology allows brands to connect with consumers on a more personal level, turning every printed item from mere packaging to a part of a compelling brand story.

Our digital presses, equipped with state-of-the-art technology, support a vast range of capabilities:

• Variable Data Printing: Customizing individual items on a mass scale, including names, images, and unique messages.
• Color Consistency and Precision: Ensuring brand standards are met with exact color matching across various materials.
• Efficient Production: Seamlessly integrating digital and conventional printing methods to enhance both quality and turnaround times.
• Versatile Material Support: Handling everything from ultra-thin adhesive films to robust packaging options.

These technical capabilities enable applications that span across personalized marketing campaigns, high-volume printing projects, and hybrid solutions combining different printing techniques for superior results.

Success Stories: Coca-Cola and Beyond

Coca-Cola utilized HP digital presses for their expansive “Share a Coke” campaign in Europe, printing nearly 800 million personalized labels in multiple languages and alphabets. This not only highlighted the versatility and capacity of digital printing technology but also demonstrated how such personalization could significantly impact brand engagement and consumer satisfaction. Here are some examples of other brands leveraging VDP:

Nutella: Following in Coca-Cola’s footsteps, Nutella launched a campaign that allowed consumers to personalize jars with their names. This not only increased engagement but also boosted sales during the campaign period. 

Oreo: Oreo used VDP to create custom packaging based on consumer data, allowing people to choose their own color schemes and messages, and even add personalized photos to the packaging. This campaign, called “Colorfilled,” allowed Oreo to transform standard cookie packages into unique gifts. 

Bud Light: In a bid to appeal to the local pride of NFL fans, Bud Light used VDP to produce cans featuring the logo of each of the 32 NFL teams, tailoring their product to fans across the country during the football season.

Similarly, brands like Nutella, Oreo, and Bud Light have successfully implemented VDP to connect with their audiences uniquely and memorably. Nutella allowed consumers to personalize jars with their names, Oreo offered custom packaging designs, and Bud Light produced NFL team-themed cans, each campaign echoing the consumer’s desire for products that feel specifically designed for them.
