Raised printing was originally designed to simulate embossed engraving at a lower cost.

The process is carried out with a ‘thermo’ unit attached to the end of the printing press where freshly printed inks are dusted with a clear compound.

As the excess powder on the non printed areas is removed by vacuum, the sheet passes under a heater set at 480 – 700 degrees Celsius. This fuses the ink and powder compound together. The sheet is immediately moved into a cooling section where the raising is stopped.

The finished product looks high end and distinctive to the eye and touch.

It’s a perfect choice for business cards, swing tags, certificates, menus and invitations.
