Frequently Questions

What is cold foil technology and how does it work?

Cold foil technology is a metallization process that applies foil to substrates using a cold adhesive instead of heat. This allows for vibrant metallic finishes without damaging sensitive materials. The process involves printing an adhesive layer onto the substrate, followed by the application of cold foil, which adheres to the adhesive. This method offers greater design flexibility and is suitable for a variety of materials, making it ideal for modern packaging needs. Cold foil technology is particularly advantageous for intricate designs and applications where heat may compromise the substrate’s integrity, providing brands with a unique way to enhance their packaging.
Cold foil can be applied to a wide range of substrates, including paper, cardboard, and various plastics. This versatility makes it suitable for numerous packaging applications, from luxury goods to everyday products. The ability to use cold foil on sensitive materials without the risk of warping or degradation is one of its key advantages. This means that brands can create stunning packaging designs that stand out on the shelf while ensuring the quality of the materials is preserved. Our cold foil products are designed to adhere effectively to different substrates, providing a consistent and high-quality finish across all applications.

Yes, cold foil technology can be used for both decorative and functional purposes in packaging.

This dual functionality makes cold foil an excellent choice for brands looking to combine aesthetics with performance. By utilizing cold foil in their packaging, brands can create eye-catching designs that also protect the product inside, ultimately enhancing the overall consumer experience.
