Hot foil stamping machines

An increasing part of our business is the supply to our customers worldwide of hot foil stamping (gold blocking) machines, either by the platen or cylinder method. If you are stamping packages, labels, banknotes or you are a trade finisher, with the Bobst/Steuer and Gietz presses you will be able to achieve finishes on short, medium or large sized print runs easily and quickly. The packaging for sweets and chocolates for example, are given a high quality, classy look using multilayered blind embossing. Hologram applications are increasingly popular for packaging, especially in the tobacco and pharmaceutical industry as they provide trademark protection.
