(We Love) Foil Blocking

Foil blocking is an art. It balances heat, pressure and machine speed for a sharp, precise and detail-oriented result. Our years of experience in the foiling game means we know what works and how to achieve a premium look for items including invitations, business cards, books and packaging. We can even combine foil blocking with our embossing process, saving you money with a single, cost-effective process.

What do WE love about foiling? Simple – We use an elephant. No seriously, we use a super cute hand-operated Metallic Elephant press to test our foil. It’s a great way to make sure YOU are happy with the materials you’ve chosen. We also have a hand-fed platen which lets us foil directly onto items like book covers before binding.

Got a specific foil type in mind? We work with the amazing Foilco, who provide an epic range of foils. For a copy of FOILCO’s Index swatch folder, just ask.
