The label design showcases two of the game’s zombie-slaying characters and a captivating glow-in-the-dark Logo. Adding an extra layer of excitement to the limited edition release, this innovative feature not only enhances the visual appeal of the bottle but also serves as a testament to the dedication to delivering an unforgettable experience.

The unique and eye-catching glow-in-the-dark logo on the label was achieved by using a special varnish. In addition to the glow-in-the-dark feature, the label was produced using 10 colours. This indicates a sophisticated and vibrant design, allowing for a wide range of hues and shades. Having such a varied colour palette helps to make the label visually striking and stand out on the shelf.

A tactile lacquer was also applied to enhance the text and smaller graphics on the label. This adds a tactile dimension to the design, making it not only visually appealing but also engaging to touch. The tactile lacquer provides a slight raised texture to specific areas of the label, adding depth and sensory interest.

A Highly Commended Product!
