Cold foil is a modern printing technique that adds metallic effects to materials like paper, cardboard, and plastic—without using heat. Instead, it relies on UV-curable adhesive and pressure to transfer a thin layer of foil onto the substrate. This process creates a stunning, reflective finish that enhances appeal visual.

Flexo Cold Foils
Flexo Cold Foils are specifically engineered for use with flexographic printing presses equipped with a cold foil transfer unit. This innovative technology allows for the application of metallic or decorative effects without the need for heat, making it a highly efficient and versatile solution for modern printing needs. It is ideal for applications such as packaging, labels, and other commercial print jobs where high-speed production and consistent quality are required.
Offset Cold Foils
Offset cold foils is a printing technique that adds metallic or reflective effects to printed materials using adhesive and foil, without the need for heat. It is ideal for creating high-quality, visually appealing designs on packaging, labels, and promotional items. The process integrates seamlessly with traditional offset printing workflows, allowing for the combination of foil effects with full-color printing, resulting in premium finishes that enhance the overall look and feel of the final product.
Screen Print Cold Foils
Screen print cold foils are metallic foils used in screen printing to create high-quality metallic designs on various substrates like paper, textiles, and plastics. The process involves applying a UV-curable adhesive through a mesh screen, pressing the foil onto the adhesive with a squeegee, and removing excess foil after UV curing. This method offers excellent resolution, versatility, and a wide range of metallic effects, including holographic and iridescent finishes. Screen print cold foils are ideal for promotional products, textiles, and high-end packaging, enhancing visual appeal and perceived value.
