The process

• Hot stamping consists in transfering a metallic or colored pigmentated film on paper using heat which acts on a thermofusible adhesive.
• The technique consists of heat pressing the film between the sheet of paper and the die representing your design.
• The die used for hot stamping is made up chemically, in relief, starting from a negative film, emulsion up.
• The films can be metallic (gold, silver, copper...), pigmentated matt or shiny, holographic, pearly, transparent or in color (including white).

A few relevant details

• Metallic hot stamping (gold, silver, copper...) is completely opaque: it is therefore unnecessary to “drop-out” your graphics in order to avoid register problems.
• Some tests could prove necessary on certain papers, on lamination or in certain cases of fine printing.
• Hot stamping color charts are extended without however covering the whole Pantone range.
• Color charts are available upon request.
• The maximum size of the press sheet is 25” x 35”.
