    What are they?

    Hot stamping

    The hot stamping process includes a hot stamping press, a hot stamping die or type, and sometimes a hot stamping foil if you choose to add color to your impression.

     

    The hot stamping press contains a heating element that heats up the die or type; the marking cycle starts when the press engages the heated die or type with the foil and transfers the ink from the foil carrier onto the part to be marked.

     

    The press then disengages at the end of the marking cycle leaving behind a crisp, permanent, ink impression on the part.

    Embossing / Debossing

    Embossing and debossing, the difference is whether it is raised or recessed.

     

    Embossing is when you press into the medium from underneath and the text or image is raised.

     

    Debossing is when the text or image is imprinted from above to cause a depression or indentation in the medium.

    Monogramming

    Blind debossing simply means to mark a recessed image without the use of coloured foils.

     

    A monogram or wenzel is a motif made by overlapping or combining two or more letters or other graphemes to form one symbol. Monograms are often made by combining the initials of an individual or a company, used as recognisable symbols or logos.


    Blind Debossing

    Blind debossing simply means to mark a recessed image without the use of coloured foils.

  • What is suitable for hot stamping?

    Requirements, terms and conditions

    Flat Surface

    Item must be a flat plane of uniform thickness, ie. from the top of the text to the bottom of the text, or from the beginning of the text to the end of the text, there is no change in thickness. If one side is thicker than the other, when the press is engaged, the thickest part will be marked, while the thinnest part will not a clear mark of the die or type.


    Suitable items are wallets, luggage tags, labels, book covers, laptop sleeves, key straps, bag straps, and other similar types of products.


    Unsuitable items are rounded/puffy balloon bags, bucket bags, uneven surfaces or textures, corners or edges of large items that need to be held down under pressure.

    Thickness

    Item cannot be more than 50mm thick, eg. clutch or long wallets with many internal pockets. When lying flat, the full thickness of the wallet may exceed the press clearance height.

    Coating

    Leather products with a plastic/polyurethane/polyethylene coating may require a test print on a sacrificial sample. Some of these coatings have melting points lower than the required marking temperature, so the coatings on the leather product may melt before the foil is hot enough to be transferred. If the press is not hot enough for the foil to transfer, the foil may transfer partially, looking like it flaked off or faded. In this case, it is recommended that the item be blind debossed instead. No foil is used in the process.

    Liability

    Client and customers must be informed and made aware of the risks involved. Despite our experience and best efforts, sometimes defects may be caused by surface contamination of the marking surface that are not within our control. Some faux leather/PU/pleather products are made in molds that require a non-stick release agent that may prevent the perfect transfer of foil onto the surface. We shall not not be liable for any defective marking on any products not made by us, pertaining to but not limited to partial foil transfers, uneven marking, and tooling marks left by protruding parts of the hot stamping press.
