Cold Foil & Hot Stamping
Adding Shine & Security to Your Products
For a statement that oozes “high-end,” choose cold foil or hot stamping as a label enhancement. They are two popular techniques used to add metallic, holographic, iridescent, pearlescent, textures or other special effects to labels. These label enhancements can enhance the aesthetics of a product or be used for product authentication or security. Cold foil is a more recent technique that uses ultraviolet (UV) light to adhere foil to a substrate. It produces a flat, even finish with a metallic or colored effect. Hot stamping involves applying heat and pressure to transfer a thin layer of foil onto a substrate. This process creates a raised, embossed effect with a metallic or colored finish.
Select an elegant satin finish, glittery or holographic image. With varying shades of gold or silver, as well as holographic, transparent and security cold foils, it’s simple to add a touch of elegance to:
- Wine and spirit bottles
