Custom Cone Sleeves

When it comes to ice, one thing that comes to mind is waffles. The combination of crunchy waffles and sweet ice cream gives a mouthwatering experience, however, this also poses some challenges to the companies as well as the consumers. Among those challenges, the sogginess of waffles is a common thing that can be protected by cone sleeves. 

Apart from protecting the waffles from getting soggy, these sleeves provide an ideal promotional tool. Not only this, but you can also print engaging artwork and catchy tag lines to get the attention of the customers. We have plenty of options to give you packaging with the potential to enhance your sales. 

Purpose Of Cone Sleeves 

These sleeves were manufactured to combat two challenges that ice cream businesses were facing, i.e., the protection of waffles and the other is brand promotion. Both these issues were resolved by the waffle cone sleeves. When the consumer starts relishing the ice cream, the melting cream can create a sticky, unpleasant experience if it is not packed properly. When you use sleeve packaging, you can form a barrier between the product and the customer’s hands, ensuring a clean and comfortable eating experience. 

In addition to this, you can use the sleeves as a cost-effective marketing tool by incorporating logos and brand messages, slogans, and seasonal themes. With a well-designed sleeve for your cones, the simple product will become a mobile marketing tool. 

Materials Used

Natural is one of the most important things in custom cone sleeves wholesale. A high-quality material can remarkably preserve the quality of the cones and help you serve the product in a professional way. Like all the food papers, for the manufacturing of sleeves for waffle cones we use food-safe materials so that the cone sleeves can come in direct contact with the edible part. The two common paper-based materials that we use are as follows: 

• Kraft 
• Cardboard 

These materials not only have sturdiness but also have a smooth surface area so that you can get them printed with any design of your choice. 

Printing Methods

A key aspect of the custom cone sleeve is its appearance, which is largely determined by the printing method used. Various techniques are employed to achieve eye-catching, detailed, and consistent designs:

Appearance is one of the most important aspects of the sleeves, and with the help of printing methods, we are giving you the best-looking sleeves. Our custom printed cone sleeves have eye-catching and detailed designs that help you get the attention of the customers and enhance your sales. We use the three common printing methods to give the best sleeves for your cones: 

Offset Printing

Offset printing methods give high-resolution images and are the best option when you need large volumes. Moreover, the precision of this method allows the brands to get consistent designs over the entire batch. 

Digital Printing

This method is suitable for short runs and detailed artwork. Digital printing is the fastest printing process and gives a sharp and vibrant design without compromising the quality. If the customers need quick modifications, then this is the best method. 

Flexographic Printing

This method is almost like offset printing, but its precision is a little less. In the flexographic printing method, quality design can be achieved at an efficient speed. This method is fast and works perfectly on uneven surfaces.  

You can select any of the methods for printing your cone sleeves with a logo. The complexity of designs and the desired finish are the main factors that determine which method is good for you. 

Protective Coatings And Finishes

In order to enhance the durability and aesthetic look of the customized cone sleeves, the application of coatings is a must. These coatings improve the look of the sleeves and also add an additional layer of protection against moisture and scratches. We have several options for you. 

Most of the time, the internal lining of the sleeves is coated to give properties like greaseproof paper, so that the stickiness of ice cream does not deteriorate the packaging. Among them, the common is as follows: 

• The glossy coating gives a shiny look to the packaging sleeves and enhances the color vibrancy. It also gives resistance to water and maintains the integrity of the sleeves in humid and wet conditions. 
• Matte coatings, on the other hand, give a non-reflective surface to the custom cone sleeves wholesale. It has an elegant and sophisticated look that gives luxuriousness to your waffle cone sleeves. 
• Aqueous coating is an eco-friendly alternative to finishings that protects the sleeve packaging for cones without contaminating the environment. 
• Lamination is a highly durable option that enhances the moisture resistance as well as the integrity of the packaging, even at rough handling times. 

Adhesives

We know that adhesives are necessary to hold the custom waffle cone sleeves together. We use the right adhesives to ensure easy assembly. Not only this, our adhesives are non-toxic and do not contaminate the cones. The common options that we use are as follows: 

• Water-Based Adhesives 
• Hot Melt Glue 
• Resin-Based Adhesives
