Foil blocking
Foil blocking has been developed using the letterpress principle. A male block is produced using zinc, magnesium, copper or brass. These are process engraved.
The block is heated on press and a metallic or coloured foil is branded on to the material. Foiled logos are incorporated into many corporate identities, used especially on corporate invitations, business cards, letter headings and compliment slips.
Foiling & Embossing
Foiling and embossing can be used on the same image, firstly foiled and then embossed. Again logos are incorporated into many corporate identities, used especially on corporate invitations, business cards, letter headings and compliment slips.
A highly cost effective way to add metallic colour to all or part of printed products.
Fully compatible with laser printers.
Ideal for Invitations, business cards, letter headings and compliment slips ect.
Ideal for use in conjunction with thermography, embossing and lithography.

| Foilblocking is the process of printing matt, gloss or metallic effects often used alongside traditional printing to embellish Stationery, Hard Back Covers and Brochures etc. Embossing can be used to great effect, combined with foil, print or spot varnish. On its own, blind embossing can add a subtle and tactile elegance or be used for a panel to highlight a picture or illustration | ||||||

| Individual items such as Diaries, Filofaxes, Photomounts and Business Gifts can be personalised with Company details and /or names and initials. Even those jobs such as proofs, limited editions and overblocking that you may have previously thought would not justify foilblocking can now be cost effective. Overblocking a mistake or an omission can often save an expensive reprint. | ||||||
