Custom Foil Printing
Foil printing provides businesses with a premium finish for packaging, marketing materials, and corporate branding. Explore how custom foil prints can enhance your brand’s impact across various applications.
What is Foil Printing?
Foil printing is a process that involves applying a metallic or pigmented foil onto the surface of printed materials, adding a reflective or colored finish that enhances the visual appeal. At Wallace Carlson Printing, we specialize in cold foil printing, a method that uses adhesive instead of heat to transfer foil onto paper.
This technique is ideal for high-speed, large-scale printing, offering more flexibility in design and color options. Cold foil printing is also more cost-effective and eco-friendly, providing our customers with a premium look without sacrificing speed or sustainability.
Types of Foil Used
Metallic Foils
These offer a shiny, reflective surface in various colors such as gold, silver, copper, and more, providing a luxurious, eye-catching finish.
Holographic Foils
These foils create dynamic, multi-dimensional effects by reflecting light in different patterns and colors, making them ideal for visually striking designs.
Pigmented Foils
These provide solid, non-metallic colors, delivering bold, vibrant finishes without the reflective qualities of metallic foils.
Matte Foils
These offer a soft, non-reflective finish, creating a more subtle, sophisticated appearance compared to glossy metallic foils.
