Gold Foil Label Features
Our gold foil label material is a metalized paper with a permanent adhesive. It has a shiny, reflective golden surface that is great for printing logos, text, and designs. The sophisticated and elegant effect also makes it ideal for marketing premium products, formal events and celebrations, or as attention-grabbing touches on packaging.
Our metallic labels can also be used as blockout labels. Blockout technology prevents light from passing through your label. This means that from the top, your label looks normal, but it's masking any underlying text or imagery. Also called opaque labels, these are popular for covering up outdated or irrelevant information like incorrect address or return address labels.
