Foiling Printing
Foiling printing is a finishing process that applies a thin film of metallic foil, to create a really eye-catching, high-quality, premium piece of print. Foil print helps give your marketing materials a sophisticated edge, adds a tactile experience and makes sure your publications leave a lasting impression.
How does foiling work?
The hot foil is pressed onto the paper or card with a metal die, to add a shiny, durable embellishment to your design. The foil is so incredibly thin (less than 2.5 microns thick), that items such as greetings cards which feature foiling, can still be recycled as it disappears within the re-pulping process. For more about foiling and sustainability read our blog on the The Truth About Foiling and Recyclability.
Custom foil printing adds a touch of luxury to your designs and can be done in varous colour options, including gold, silver, copper and rose gold foil. Get in touch to discuss your project with us and see samples.
