What is Hot Stamping?
Hot stamping is a precise and versatile process that uses heat and pressure to apply metallic or pigmented foils onto various materials such as paper, plastic, metal, and leather. This method creates vibrant, durable designs that are often used for logos, text, and decorative elements, enhancing the visual appeal and quality of the product.
Ideal for applications in packaging, promotional items, and luxury goods, hot stamping provides both functional and aesthetic benefits. It is particularly valued for creating sharp, high-quality impressions with metallic effects, making it a popular choice for businesses looking to elevate their branding and product presentation.
