Kurz launches transparent holographic cold foil for web printing

The Kurz Group continues to play a leading role in the field of blanching. In order to pursue the belief in applying the latest inventions to the field of hot stamping, Kurz is now introducing a transparent holographic cold foil for web printing, which makes the cold foil as a design tool and plays a role in anti-counterfeiting protection. . Transparent foil can also be used as a transparent protective film for customers' designs, corporate symbol colors, logos, and various product labels. The interaction of the holographic pattern and the underlying printing creates a special pattern effect, and at the same time sets a higher level for the counterfeiter, preventing manipulation of the printed product data.

Transparent foils are made in a variety of standard holographic designs and can also be ordered for customer-specific designs. With the exception of the stand-alone pattern OVD (Optical Variable Image), any surface design can be done, but the cold-rolling technology at this stage has not yet been applied to an independent pattern OVD that requires positioning stamping. Positioning for hot image transfer requires a light identification reading device and the foil feed is controlled by a timer, which has not yet been realized in the cold-rolling process.
