Foliant has made foiling and spot varnish fast and affordable for short run and personalised print with the launch of its Multi-functional Inprinting Unit available from Intelligent Finishing Systems.
The retrofittable solution transforms output from the Vega, Mercury and Taurus B3 and B2 laminators using the sleeking process.
Sleeking is where the foil or varnish is applied to pre-printed black toner. The sheet can then be reprinted mono or four colour.
The Foliant Multi-functional Inprinting Unit runs a wide range of colours including gold, silver, red and green and a clear gloss for spot varnish.
Bryan Godwyn, Managing Director of IFS comments: “Adding the Foliant Multi-functional Inprinting Unit to an existing laminator is an extremely affordable way to quickly and easily introduce a number of finishing techniques to an operation’s print production services. As such printers can add a lot of value to their capabilities at a very reasonable cost.
“One of the of the Foliant’s main benefits is its ability to apply good, constant pressure and keep the sheets flat to produce high quality results.”
The solution will suit a broad range of end uses from corporate stationery to POS and book covers.
The Foliant Multi-functional Inprinting Unit will receive its official UK launch at Real Print and Finish Open House, Hemel Hempstead, March 15 – 17.
