Hot-stamping
Hot-stamping is a specialized two-step decoration process designed to give your packaging a high-end, reflective finish. First, the design is defined using precision screen printing. Then, a secondary coat is applied using controlled heat and pressure to transfer a metallic foil—typically gold or silver—directly onto the cap’s surface.

FAQ
Q: Are there any other colours for hot-stamping besides gold or silver?
A: Yes, additional colours are available; however, this technique is most effective when using high-shine metallic hues like gold and silver. While other options exist, the selection is more curated to ensure the best possible visual impact.
Q: What are the technical limitations of this decoration?
A: The decoration area depends on the size of the cap and the available flat surface. To ensure a crisp and clean transfer, it is technically essential to maintain a specific minimum line thickness in your design.
Q: Is hot-stamping compatible with any fragrance formula?
A: Compatibility is key. If your fragrance formula will come into direct contact with the decorated surface, we must verify that they do not react. We perform a specialized compatibility test for your prior approval to ensure the finish remains flawless.
Q: What resistance tests are conducted on hot-stamped surfaces?
A: To guarantee durability, all hot-stamped caps undergo a series of rigorous evaluations, including dry friction tests, adhesion (tape) tests, and water resistance tests.
