Cold Foil Printing

Beacon Adhesives Inc.

Cold Foil Printing is similar to hot foil stamping but does not require heat to transfer foil to the substrate. Instead, this process uses a specifically designed UV curable adhesive, Magna-Cryl 4500 Series, for use in standard flexo, letter or screen press stations to achieve foil transfer. Cold Foil Printing is not intended to replace hot foil stamping process. Although it can foil transfer with pleasing results, it cannot reproduce the exact fine, under the lope details, that a hot stamp process can produce. For instructions on how to use our Magna-Cryl 4500 Series, please refer to our GO COLD, Handbook for Cold Foil Printing. To request a copy of this handbook, send e-mail to: david@beacon1.com.
