Digital Foil: The Future of Hot Stamping Technology

Digital foil is revolutionizing the printing industry by offering a flexible, cost-effective, and innovative solution for hot stamping applications. In this article, we’ll explore what digital foil is, its benefits, and how it can enhance your projects.
What is Digital Foil?
Digital foil is a cutting-edge technology that allows the application of hot stamping foil to printed materials without the need for a physical die. Unlike traditional hot stamping, which requires custom dies for each design, digital foil leverages digital printing technology to bond foil directly to inks, toners, or varnishes. This process offers unparalleled flexibility for design personalization and shorter run lengths.
