Solopress Launches New Colors for Foil Printing


Solopress has increased its selection of foil printing colours. These new colours include Bright Gold, Green Turquoise and Red, as well as Black. These new colours join Gold, Rose Gold, and Silver that have been part the Solopress offering since 2019.

The Essex-based printer uses Konica Minolta’s JETVarnish 3DS technology to apply the coloured foils, followed by a sealing coat of UV varnish for added shine and durability. This allows them to print large areas of foil as well as delicate details up to 0.5mm.

Print products benefitting from the new options include Flyers & Leaflets, Business Cards, Greetings Cards, Postcards, Invitations, Brochures and Presentation Folders.

MD Simon Cooper stated:

After the success of foil printed products we felt the right time to expand the range and offer more colors. With Christmas approaching, we’re hoping customers will embrace the new options and add some colour and shine to their seasonal print.

Foil printing requires that customers provide two layers of artwork. One to indicate the foil area and one to include the rest of the design elements to be printed in a conventional manner. Solopress has a video tutorial for foil printing on YouTube and a written guide on how to order foil print.
