The majority of consumers make their purchasing decisions in a matter of seconds, so it's crucial to have labels that clearly convey your brand message and quality. Foil accents add visual interest, while also making your product look premium. Metalized paper and films work in an array of industries, like food & beverage and bath & beauty.
Want the foil to match your brand colors? Not a problem! We use other inks to tint the label material and create any other color. Additionally, we help make sure the foil elements pop on your design by using white underprinting. Tell us where you want the extra effect, and we’ll add a layer of white ink under your design.
