We have been servicing the converting, embellishment, hot foil stamping and cold foiling industries for several decades now. As part of the Aldus group, our experience across all of our businesses puts us in the perfect position to be able to guide our customers around the technical requirements of choosing the correct foils to suit the machines being used apply foil, the substrates being foiled, colour matching and manufacturing hard-to-find foil products to ensure our customers get exactly what they need for their projects.
For our customers' convenience, below is a list of services that we can provide to make sure our customers get the product they need.
Pre-Sales Technical Support For Your Projects
Our highly trained teams of graphic designers, technicians, engineers and sales representatives are dedicated to providing you with cost effective and efficient solutions for your foil stamping or foil packaging projects. Our aim is to provide our customers with the ability to produce world class and visually aethetically pleasing products.
Testing
At Foilmakers, we are happy to support customers with testing of our foils on their substrates, their machines, or any other general requirements such as abrasion, scratch resistance, etc.
Free trial product
As manufacturers and distributors, we understand the importance of being able to run a product trial, before deciding on which decorative foil to specify into your projects. So speak to one of our friendly staff about how we can support you and your project with free trial material.
Colour/Foil Matching
Our manufacturing facilities give us the ability to produce any foil you want (subject to minimum run quantities). If you can provide us with a sample or information regarding grade and colour we can look through our records to ascertain if we have made the colour before. Our library of product is vast as it spans several decades of made-to-order products, on top of all of our previous core products. Turn around can take a few weeks, and if our customer does not consider our first colour match attempt to be a close enough match, we will produce another sample for approval. In our experience it is highly unlikely that our matching service will fail a second time.
Artwork & Design
We have an in-house artwork department that can help you design and/or layout your artwork to make sure everything is set up correctly for hot stamping die manufacture.
Onsite Trial Support
To support our customers, we provide onsite trial support by making one of our foil experts available, subject to notice periods.
