What is Hot Stamping?

Hot stamping involves transferring a foil or pigment to a surface using heat and pressure. The process requires precision to achieve a clean, smooth print that adheres well to the substrate.

The key materials used in hot stamping include foils, dies, and substrates. Foils come in various colors and finishes, such as gloss and matte, with gold and silver being the most popular. Dies, which can be made of metal or rubber, are selected based on the surface to be stamped. Metal dies are ideal for flat surfaces, while rubber dies are suited for contoured surfaces.

Hot stamp printing offers several advantages, including durability, high-quality finishes, and the ability to create detailed and intricate designs. It is particularly effective for applications requiring a premium look and feel.

With over 50 years of experience, we excel in custom engineering hot stamping equipment. Our team optimizes artwork and selects the best foils to create lasting imprints, ensuring every project is completed with precision and excellence.

The keys to successful hot stamp printing are achieving a smooth, clean print with fast production speeds and minimal rejects. This is achieved by selecting the proper hot stamping foil, which comes in various colors and finishes. Gold and silver foils are particularly used in foil stamping services, and foil stamping printing, since they are popular for their elegant appearance.

Once the appropriate foil is chosen, the next step is selecting the right die—metal dies for flat surfaces and rubber dies for contoured surfaces. Each type of die requires different treatments depending on the application. To ensure the best results, we gather detailed information about the plastic substrate and its final use, allowing us to determine the optimal foil and die combination.
