Laser engraving for an elegant and permanent finish.

Laser engraving creates a precise and permanent mark on the product surface using a laser. Without the need for inks, it achieves a clean, indelible finish on materials such as metal, wood, plastic, or leather, making it widely used for keychains, trophies, and personalized pens.

Advantages

• Permanent marking that won’t fade with use
• High precision and detail, even for small text
• No inks or additional chemicals required
• Does not alter the texture or integrity of the item

Handicaps

• The engraving does not add color; it depends on the material’s natural tone
• On wood, the final finish will vary according to the grain

Your design in full colour printed with ultra-durable UV ink

UV digital printing cures the inks using ultraviolet light immediately after printing, achieving excellent adhesion and durability on a wide range of surfaces. It delivers vivid colours, sharp definition, and the ability to print on more delicate or challenging materials with a very clean finish.

Advantages

• Reproduces full-colour images with high detail
• Perfect for designs with gradients and shading
• Instant drying thanks to UV technology

Handicaps

• Does not allow exact Pantone® colour matching
• The ink’s raised effect may be slightly noticeable to the touch
• Less durable than techniques such as engraving

Heat embossing that creates a raised effect without ink or colour.

Heat embossing uses a heated die to press onto materials such as leather, faux leather, or cardboard, slightly indenting the surface to create a raised logo without ink. The result is a subtle, elegant mark, ideal for notebooks, wallets, or other high-end items.

Advantages

• Very elegant and subtle finish
• Uses no inks, only embossed material
• Ideal for leather, faux leather, thick cardboard, and similar materials

Handicaps

• The design is visible only through its shape, with no colour
• Contrast depends on the material’s tone and texture
