Often referred to as foil stamping, hot stamping is a dry product decoration process. Once a product is molded or formed- it comes to a product decoration station. Pressure and tempature are used to apply hot stamp decoration. A combination of stamping die and mold are used to release pigment foil from a film onto a product or component. The result is highly durable decoration.
