Foil blocking is an extremely popular method that creates an elegant metallic finish on elements of your printed artwork. It is the perfect finish if you are looking to give your collateral a premium, luxurious feel and provides a more textured result, increasing tangibility for your intended recipient.

There are no limitations to paper choices, so if you require a thick stock to increase durability and want to add to enhance the look and feel of your product, then this finish is a winner.

At Rapidity, we use the Heidelberg ‘Windmill’ Platen to achieve this effect. Our customers love our ability to produce print of the highest order and foil blocking has never been in more demand. This machine can work with sheets up to SRA3 sheet sizes (320 x 460mm) and is great for invites, business cards, small folders, labels and anything else you can imagine.

We recommend discussing your project with us at the earliest convenience as our experience allows us to advise you of the best way of achieving the look you are after.
