Kurz claimed the foil has proven itself on a “diverse range of substrates” and with a “wide variety of printing processes”.

Luxor/Alufin has been tailored in order to adhere quickly to the substrate, as well as drying quickly without ruining the product.

The foil provides reliable adhesion to a variety of both oxidative-drying and UV-curing ink and lacquer systems. It can be used with offset, flexographic, gravure, book or silkscreen printing.

On the company’s stand at drupa, Kurz will be giving out information about the properties of the Luxor/Alufin GIO hot-stamping foil and advice on how to use it.
