foil blocking job

[lauralil]

Hi all,

Have a job to fulfill for a client who wants some invites made.

He's requested foil blocking on newsprint paper.

If there is anyone who can fulfill this job or who can point me in the direction of a suitable supplier that would be great!

I suspect there will be some constraints in the request so if the spec needs to be amended accordingly then thats ok, I would like to give the client some alternatives.

Thanks

Laura

Might be a bit far away from you if you cant post the artwork, but my old firm used these a while back.

Foil Blocking at Impressions, Embossing and Debossing. Essex.

Starting point perhaps?

Tricky one on newspaper print.

There's no problem with blocking onto newsprint paper. Tony Hooper in London is the master of foil & block printing, embossing & debossing, matt, satin, gloss.

Does he have a website?

We have used both these companies in the past

A14 - Welcome to A14 Printfinishing Nottingham Ltd

We currently have a foil job going through with these guys - Downey & Co. - Home Page

From experience foiling onto a thin stock like 90gsm may not be possible due to the heat involved.

Thanks Stu, really helpful.

I have used Pawprint in the past - they have been good.

I used to work for Philprint Ltd Scarborough (I dont think they have a web presence). The only limitation with hot foiling is that news print is probably a bit too thin to be sheet fed so will have to be done on a hand press which will increase the cost.

Tony Hooper doesn't have a website, he's old school like that, but I can assure you that his portfolio in foil blocking, embossing & debossing is second to none.
