Printing instructions
Instruction printing is a service indispensable for manufacturers of the following products:
- medicinal products;
- household appliances;
- gadgets;
- sports goods;
- cosmetics;
- toys.
An instruction is a printed product that can be either multi-page or single-sheet. The format depends on how much information needs to be presented.
Multi-page instructions usually consist of a cover and inner block. Printing can be black-and-white or color. Paper also varies depending on the client’s needs. Offset paper with a density from 70 g/m² is ideal for instructions.
Our production site – where branded packaging is made
Founded in 2000, ATTOLIS initially focused on producing packaging from cardboard and corrugated board.
Since 2009, the company has been expanding its machinery fleet. Alongside improving packaging production, it has also developed its printing and post-printing services.
From 2012 to 2016, the company gained experience, installed new lines, launched envelope production, and added powerful die-cutting, folding, and gluing machines. It also introduced machines for applying personalization to print products — barcodes, addresses, serial numbers, and personalized messages.
Today, our production facility is equipped with high-performance modern machinery capable of producing high-quality packaging in any quantity and printing advertising and product-related materials.

How to create a good instruction leaflet?
To understand how to make a good instruction, it's worth exploring the specifics of its production for common product categories:
- medical instructions are usually printed on a single sheet in black-and-white to minimize brochure costs;
- user manuals can be printed either on a single sheet or as a multi-page booklet, and are bound with staples, thermal binders, or other available methods;
- medicine instructions are affordable due to the use of thin paper instead of cardboard to reduce production costs.
Before printing an instruction, you need to develop it. Professionals can help with the layout, but the content should come from those familiar with the product. A good instruction should:
- have structured content;
- divide data into separate blocks;
- describe each step or section in as much detail as possible for user convenience;
- include visual diagrams and images;
- use a font large enough for comfortable reading;
- for pharmaceuticals, comply with government regulations.
Instructions don't have to be text-only. Including as many illustrations as needed, including color, is allowed and encouraged.
Custom instruction production
We produce custom instructions using the following materials:
- offset paper of varying densities, which affects the unit cost;
- thick cardboard;
- coated cardboard with a smooth white surface.
For small-sized instructions, cardboard may also be used if desired. Thick drawing paper is especially suitable for color printing, providing bright and saturated images.
Custom instructions can vary in size. You can choose a custom format or one of the standard sizes:
- A6 – 148 × 105 mm;
- A5 – 210 × 148 mm;
- A4 – 297 × 210 mm.
Different printing methods are used depending on the print run. For large quantities of box inserts, offset printing is applied. For small print runs, digital printing in black-and-white or color is used.
Although special printing techniques are rarely used for instruction manuals or medical inserts, they are always available. You can order glossy or matte lamination, selective UV coating, embossing, and silk-screen printing at an affordable price.
To get a custom print run of instructions, you need to:
- prepare the text and images for the box insert;
- create a layout or order it from ATTOLIS;
- determine the print run;
- submit a request via email, messenger, or the feedback form on the website.
Our managers will contact you shortly to discuss the order details and final cost.
