Hot Stamping Foil for Plastics Glass Metallic Products

Hot Stamping Foil is a type of film for creating a decorated sheet which has been widely used on packages

and prints to enhance the visual appeal by giving a sense of prestige, luxury and elegance.

Based on customer’s needs, hot stamping foil color can be various, such as blue, red, or green, but

majors in gold and silver. It has been widely used on paper, plastic, leather, fabric, glass or other material.

With a pressing process on the color layer, hot stamping foil joints in grating structures and hologram

pattern, which causes diffraction, reflects rainbow spectrums and provides an anti-duplicate result.

We offer a complete line of foils, from various metallic colors to different holographic patterns that support

stamping on different substrate. Special orders are taken.

PRODUCING PROCESS

Hot stamping foil uses PET as a based foil, coating with release layer, color layer, aluminum layer and

adhesive layer.

The polyester carrier, PET, is the supporter for other coating. Upon application of

heater &/or pressure, release layer allows other layers to release from the PET carrier to the surface

of substrate. Lacquer or color coat has two functions: carriers the color tint in the form of pigments or dye,

and protects aluminum layer on the substrate so that it will not be oxidized. The forth layer,

aluminum layer provides the reflective qualities and opacity desired in metallic foils. Adhesive coat serves

to bond the foil to the substrate being stamped. This determines the printability on different substrates.

In other word, we choose different adhesive coatings according to substrate material.
