Cold Stamping Technology

Rich decorative effects make the folding carton a real canvas for you. You can combine inks, specialty coatings, and structural designs to enhance your brand and engage consumers in all settings, retail or online. As long as people associate "shine" with quality, bronzing will remain a popular decorative choice for companies. It's a tried-and-true method that dates back centuries, and innovation has expanded its use. Once the preserve of luxury brands and luxury confectionary companies—think of those high-end chocolates that were popular around Valentine’s Day—foil decoration is now becoming more commonplace on the packaging of all kinds of everyday products. The expansion reflects both technological improvements in applied foils, reducing costs, and growing demand for product differentiation. While many printing and packaging companies use traditional hot stamping, many more are also offering the latest cold foil applications.
One of the biggest differences between hot foil stamping and cold foil stamping techniques is the terminology. "Heat" refers to the heat and pressure required in the process, and cold foil relies on UV light rather than temperature.
Cold foils can be applied in-line, whether sheetfed lithographic or flexographic printing. The foil is dispensed from an in-line mounted roll and laid on a substrate with UV adhesive printed in the desired pattern. A pressure roller seals the foil to the sheet before exposure to UV light cures the adhesive and locks the design in place.
