Die cutting is the process of cutting labels or packaging into a precise, custom shape using a specially engineered die. Moving beyond standard rectangles and ovals, die cutting gives your label a distinctive silhouette that reinforces brand identity, improves shelf differentiation, and creates a more cohesive relationship between your label and the container it sits on.
At Cahaya Jakarta, we offer three die cutting methods — custom, semi rotary, and flat cut — each suited to different production volumes, design complexities, and turnaround requirements. Our capabilities serve brand owners and manufacturers across cosmetics, food & beverage, personal care, pharmaceuticals, and consumer goods for both domestic and international markets.
Custom cut die cutting gives you complete freedom over your label shape — any contour, silhouette, or form your design requires.
It is particularly well-suited for new product development and sampling phases, allowing brands to validate label shape and fit on the actual container before committing to full production volume.
Ideal for complex, irregular shapes where precision and design fidelity are the priority.
Semi rotary cutting operates at significantly higher speeds than other cutting methods by using a rotating die that engages the label material in a continuous, efficient motion.
This makes it the preferred method for large-volume label production runs where output speed, cutting consistency, and per-unit cost efficiency are critical requirements.
Delivers precise, repeatable results across high quantities without compromising edge quality.
Flat cut die cutting uses a straight-blade mechanism operating across a flat surface, offering a high degree of flexibility and precision for intricate or complex label shapes.
It is particularly well-suited for medium and small production runs, bespoke label formats, and designs with fine detail or tight tolerances that demand exacting cut accuracy.
A reliable choice when design complexity takes priority over production speed.
