Solopress Launches New Colors for Foil Printing


Solopress has expanded the range of colours available for foil printing. The new colours are Bright Gold and Turquoise as well as Red, Green, Turquoise, and 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 print large amounts of foil or fine details as small as 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:

We felt it was time to expand our range and offer more colours after the success of foil-printed products. 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 for ordering foil prints.
