Foil Stamping

Foil printing is a printing method in which a piece of colored metallic foil is placed between a piece of paper and a die. First, the die is heated and then pressed against the foil and paper. It is the heating and pressure process that helps transfer the colored metallic foil on the paper. Usually, foil stamping is used for covers and packaging purposes. The most preferred colors for foil stamping are silver and gold, but they’re also a few other color options available that can be used for the same.
