Hot Stamping

Hot Stamping is a branding technique that creates an indented design on the product surface using a heated custom metal plate. The plate is pressed firmly onto the product surface, leaving a lasting impression of the design. It's commonly used on materials like wood.

Hot Stamping

Hot Stamping is perfect for premium wooden items, leather products, and elegant packaging, creating indented metallic designs.

Advantages:

  • Permanent, high-quality branding.

  • Contrasting two-tone finishes available.

Disadvantages:

  • No variable data printing.

  • Inconsistency on large artwork blocks.

  • Minimum line thickness: 0.4mm.

  • Single-colour process — metallic or solid finishes only, no multi-colour artwork
  • Requires a custom metal die, attracting a higher cost than other branding methods
  • Not suitable for fine detail or small text
  • Minimum order quantities apply

Artwork Requirements:

  • Editable vector format (EPS, AI, or vector PDF). Single-colour artwork only. Bold, clean designs work best — fine detail and small text may not reproduce clearly. Fonts should be converted to outlines.
