Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between metalized film and hot foil stamping?

Metalized film is a substrate with a shiny metallic base. Hot foil stamping is a finishing technique applied only to selected areas.

Do metalized labels work in wet environments?

Yes. Because they are built on a film substrate, they resist moisture and condensation.

Can I get a gold metalized label?

Silver is most common. Gold looks can be achieved with printed inks over a metalized base.
