Transfer laminating

Brilliant surfaces for packaging

Environmentally friendly, visually attractive and direct printable: in transfer laminating, a metallised surface is transferred from a foil to paper or cardboard. The foil is removed afterwards and can be reused several times.

This results in a plastic-free packaging. They have a very brilliant surface and are completely recyclable. This means that no disposal of compound material is necessary and what’s also important: no curling effect and no blocking.
