Hot stamping foils are decorative finishing materials used to create metallic or other specialised surface effects on printed products and packaging. They are selected according to the substrate, stamping equipment, required visual effect, and processing conditions.
For packaging converters and printing businesses, choosing a suitable foil involves more than colour selection. Transfer performance, adhesion to the target surface, stamping conditions, and compatibility with previous finishing steps should all be considered when determining the right material.
Typical applications: Luxury packaging, gift boxes, labels, book covers, greeting cards, and other decorative printed materials.
