The basic concept behind foil stamping is simple. The process is achieved when a stamping die is mounted on a plate and heated. Foil is then placed between the die and the material to be imprinted. When the die presses against the foil, the heat releases the coloring layer from the foil and binds it to the end product.
Foil stamping does not produce a raised image. In the print finishing industry it’s called flat foil when the design is not raised; but when it’s combined with embossing, it is called foil embossing. Foil stamping is the only printing process capable of applying bright, non-tarnishable metallic effects to paper.
Foils are not limited to gold and silver, or for that matter, even metallic finishes. In fact, foil stamping is available in a wide array of colors, finishes and effects, such as: marble, snake skin, wood grains, pigments, metallics, subtle tints, matte and gloss finishes as well as, defraction and holographic foils.
The slightest variation in paper, foil, temperature or pressure can affect the outcome, so the skill of our press operator is invaluable and critical to the quality of the finished product. Trust our experience and expertise when using foil stamping on your project. Here at Trade Print Finishing our foil stamping really outshines the rest.
The process involves applying a liquid and curing it with ultraviolet light to form a glossy surface. The U.V. process doesn’t involve the traditional solvent-based chemicals, and is therefore a more environmentally friendly coating procedure. When a coating is applied to a specific area, as opposed to an overall surface of the sheet, this application process is referred to as spot coating. This process allows images or other printed or embossed elements, to be even further enhanced.
At True-Cut, die cutting is a specialty, not a side line. We can die cut as small as a business card size, all the way up to a 40 inch full-size sheet. We can handle a myriad of different substrates from paper, board, and corrugated, to plastics.
A die cut is achieved by first creating a steel-rule die that is used for cutting the material in the desired shape. We can produce anything from display boxes, header cards, point-of-purchase displays, to pocket folders. We have a wide range of “stock” cutting forms at your disposal, with no charge for their usage. Or we can help you design a custom form to give your project an extra something.
Is the process in which paper is pressed into a relief using heat and pressure. It requires an etched metal die and a matching counterdie. When a paper stock is pressed between the heated die and the counterdie, the desired image is pressed into the stock.
Embossing creates a raised image on the paper. When the same process creates an indented image, it is called debossing. You can achieve an elegant embossed effect with only one level of etching that renders a flat image with either a beveled or rounded edge, or a sculpted look with many levels of etching.
Embossing adds a distinctive touch to folders, business cards, stationery, folders, and covers. Choose a blind emboss or add foil or ink to create a distinctive emboss that’s sure to stand out.
Flood UV means that the surface of a sheet is covered all at once by the coating. This method is a quick process as many products can be covered at once. It leaves behind a visually-appealing shiny aura throughout your printed product. We handle sheet size ranging from 8.5” x 11” all the way up to 28” x 40.”
At Trade we provide you with a vast amount of UV options. Whether it’s UV Glitter, UV Profile, UV Satin, UV on Uncoated, UV Tinted, UV Textured, or UV Matte; we got you covered.
