Frequently Asked Questions

What is UV cold foil adhesive?

UV cold foil adhesive is a UV-curable adhesive used for cold foil stamping. It is printed onto the sheet where foil is required, foil is applied over it, and UV curing bonds the foil — enabling metallic effects inline on the press without heated dies.

How does cold foil stamping work on an offset press?

The cold foil adhesive is applied via a printing or coating unit in the pattern where foil is required. Foil is then applied and pressed onto the adhesive, and UV curing bonds it. Excess foil is removed, leaving foil only where the adhesive was applied.

Can I overprint cold foil for colour effects?

Yes. Cold foil provides a metallic (typically silver) base that can be overprinted with transparent inks to create metallic colour effects — such as metallic gold, blue, or red — expanding design possibilities.

Does TWGU1050 require UV curing?

Yes. TWGU1050 is UV-curable and requires a UV curing system on the offset press. Contact TriWill Group to confirm compatibility with your equipment
