Hot Foil Printing

A luxury foil printed logo to catch your customers' eye!

Hot foil printing is a manual process where, one by one, we print your packaging with a heated metal stamp, leaving behind a luxury foil printed logo to catch your customers' eye! To get an accurate print each time, our machines need to be carefully set up by hand, a time-consuming process which requires an additional fee.

We are happy to provide printed samples for you to try before you buy, for a small additional fee of £7 plus VAT, plus the cost of your stamp - but don't worry, you can use this again later. Please check our current lead times before placing your order.

Hot Foil Cost

Please note:
This is a one-off payment. Your stamp will remain with us for future printing orders.

All prices on this page are excluding VAT.

Stamp Fee

Once we receive your order, we send your artwork off to get turned into a printing stamp. Hot foil stamps are metal plates engraved with your artwork that we use to print the foil onto your packaging.

Once you've purchased a stamp, you can reuse it on future orders at no additional cost, making it a long-term, cost-effective option. However, each stamp is based on the artwork you give us, so any change you make to your design, or if you want another size, a new stamp will be required.
