Foiling
Foiling is a great way to add a touch of style and elegance to any printed product. Whether it is applied to a logo, text or design element, this specialised technique creates sophisticated, eye-catching results that elevate printed materials to a new level. By impressing a thin film of metallic foil onto a document using a tailor-made stamp, our team can transform everything from stationery and business cards, to certificates, presentation folders and more. Foiling is available in gold, silver & a variety of other colours. Get a Quote
Embossing
By altering the surface of paper stock for a three-dimensional effect, embossing creates a stunning visual effect that can be further enhanced in combination with foil stamping and other printing techniques. The Book Printers team uses heat and pressure to press a design, pattern or text onto paper stock by means of a metal plate that permanently reshapes the paper fibers. Embossing is often used on certificates, business cards, brochure covers, invitations & more. Get a Quote
Die-cutting
Die-cutting is the process by which we develop a custom cut-out for use on the business cards, neck tags, boxes, presentation folders and other speciality print products for a particular business. By developing a wholly unique shape to form part of your marketing collateral you are setting the stage to leave a truly memorable impression. There are countless applications for this technology – get in touch with our creatives if you want to discuss your desired look & feel. Get a Quote
Laminating
Lamination is the process of bonding printed matter to a clear plastic film. Most commonly, the film is applied to both sides of a printed piece so the final products is fully enclosed in the plastic sheeting. This way, each document, business card, brochure, folder (or whatever you happen to laminate) is protected from stains, moisture, wrinkles and many other environmental processes that could otherwise shorten its lifespan. Lamination is also a wonderful way to add rigidity to printed matter. Get a Quote
Book Gilding
Book gilding is an age-old art that brings to life the edges of a book, elevating the look and feel thereof when it is on display. If you want a book or publication to look classic and timeless, there are very few things that beats edge gilding. Additionally, the gold leaf also protects the fine edges of the pages from dampness, acidity and the natural oils present on the hands of the people who page through it. As such, book gilding offers both functional and aesthetic benefits. Get a Quote
