Cold foil labels

Cold foil labels are made using a press to apply a thin foil sheet onto label material with cold printing plates and a UV curing lamp.

Premium metallic gloss on temperature-sensitive labels
Cold foil labels are used to apply a lustrous shimmer to delicate or heat-sensitive label materials. A strong alternative to hot foil labels, they are made with an on-press application that transfers a thin sheet of foil onto label material using cold printing plates and a UV curing lamp.

Where you’ll find cold foil labels
During the printing process, hot foil labels can damage temperature-sensitive substrates, such as plastic films and non-porous materials. Cold foil labels provide metallic touches where hot foil stamping isn’t possible. You can find cold foil labels on plastic beverage bottles, household goods, fine foods, pressure-sensitive sticker labels and many other products packages.
