What is Foil Printing?

Foil Printing, also known as Foil Blocking or Hot Foiling, is a traditional artisan method of hand printing. First, a metal plate (like a stamp) is engraved with your design. Then, the block is heated and pressed firmly onto your selected card with a sheet of coloured foil sandwiched between the two. As a result, the card is branded with a beautiful metallic finish.

Foil printing creates something special and unique. Our standard range of foils consists of the 10 most on-trend colours. An extensive range of additional colours and finishes are available including gloss, pearlescent and metallic shades. If you are looking for something specific please get in touch.
