Cigarette label pattern:

The main changes of "Zhonghua" cigarette labels can be divided into two stages:

First, in the late 1970s and early 1980s, the gold-printed trademark on the label of "Zhonghua" cigarettes was changed to a bronzing trademark. This change of cigarette label undoubtedly took advantage of the bronzing effect of the pattern, which made the whole cigarette label look brand-new and the brand image of "China" suddenly improved.

Secondly, in 1994, bronzing printing was changed to more advanced gravure printing, and the material of cigarette labels was changed from white cardboard to aluminum paper. The original bronzing printing process is complicated, all of which are manual operation, with low printing efficiency and unstable quality, which obviously does not meet the needs of increasing output.
