Gold printing - when and how was it created?

This modern technique was first used in the late 19th century. For some of the first manuscripts ever written, real gold leaf was used to decorate the calligraphy, and thin gilding was also used on objects such as picture frames, furniture, statues and the like.
In the 18th and 19th centuries, gold printing began to be used mostly on leather book covers.
Today, it is used to improve the appearance of the product, and therefore its value.
Real gold is no longer used in the process (except on special occasions) which makes this technique affordable and available to anyone who wants to highlight their product and give it an elegant look. Today, aluminum or polyester foils are used in printing, over which a layer of the desired color is applied.

What is gold printing used for?

You'll notice that gold printing is used for a variety of products, from packaging to wedding invitations. It's a sure way to give your product or packaging a luxurious effect in an economical way without spending a lot of money.
The gold print adds a high gloss feel and is sure to attract attention.
You probably didn't know that gold printing can also use other colors. Although foil comes in a wide range of colors, gold, silver or copper-colored ones are most often used. Unlike other printing techniques, gold printing does not use liquid ink and leaves a glossy look that cannot go unnoticed.
Gold printing can be used for a wide range of products, such as business cards, labels, invitations, thank-you notes, book covers, diplomas, calendars and the like.
This is how gold printing is created

The gold printing process consists of the following steps:

After you decide on your design, appearance, logo and the like, we create a mold of your design using a machine.

Temperature and pressure glue the film to the surface of your product. And the mission is complete!
