Bespoke Foil Solutions

Our unique foils solution service allows us to create bespoke foils to match your specific project.

Brands often approach us knowing that we can provide unique finishes and bespoke foil colours, which can help make their products really stand out from the crowd. We have worked with and supplied some of the biggest household names on the planet, with one-off bespoke foil colour shades, manufactured specifically to their brand guidelines and specification.

We work with you from the very beginning of the project, all the way through to the finished article.

Bespoke colours and patterns

We can create one-off bespoke colours and patterns created to meet your requirements and specific projects. By constantly finding new designs and solutions we not only satisfy all of our clients but this also gives us a chance to explore innovative ways of using new foils.

Adding bespoke decorative foils to your product will create a unique and eye-catching effect that will easily draw the attention of your customers. Most importantly, adding bespoke foils offer a unique combination of brand protection and brand enhancement.

Here's a Range of specIalIst foils that we can supply from stock.

Edge Gilding


We supply a small range of specific grades for the edge gilding of books, diaries, playing cards and stationery. But we have success with an extended range of our graphics grades with heavy adhesive coats directly onto the leaves. Please consult for further details.

Smudge


SMUDGE- an exclusive foil from Foilco, formulated to give a luxurious matt black finish with superior scratch and rub resistance. SMUDGE is a specifically formulated stamping foil that does not affect its environmental credentials. A versatile foil that will work on a whole host of different applications including most substrates found within the graphic, creative and packaging sectors.

22 Carat Foil


Used mainly in archive book restoration and historic religious publications. We offer a conventional hot stamping grade that can be used for very high end business cards etc and also a grade for craft gilders transferring with hand tooling.

Astral Range


The Astral Range is a brand new Foilco exclusive innovation that has been developed to replicate traditional glitters. Astral has all the aesthetically pleasing attributes of traditional glitter products but comes with the additional peace of mind that the printed paper or board remains a fully repulpable product.

Fresnel Lens


This technology was only ever available as a lamination film. We now work with strategic partners to be able to offer this as a stamping foil. This means when printed on paper and board, the product remains recyclable and re-pulpable, but still has the impact of this unique technology. Must be applied with magic eye registration.
