Holographic Hot Stamping Foil
Holographic Hot Stamping Foil – Hot Stamping is a pollution-free dry printing process in which the holographic impression is transferred from a continuous carrier film to the desired substrate – filmic or paper.
Typical examples of this are:
- Payment cards such as Credit and Debit cards like RuPay, Mastercard, Visa
- Identity cards such as Driving License, PAN Card
- Documents such as mark sheets and certificates
- Product and MRP labels that have a hologram hot stamped for security or decoration
- Medicines with a hologram strip on the Alumunium Foil or the PVC blister as a mark of authenticity

As a leading hologram manufacturer we have several types of hologram stamping machines and are able to hot stamp the hologram in-house to meet any requirement of our customers.

A stamping foil is a very sensitive product and one needs to store it carefully in controlled conditions. We recommend storage in 25 degrees Celsius temperature and 65% Relative Humidity in a dry area. If stored in its original packaging in these conditions, our foils should be good for consumption upto 3 months from despatch.
