Foil Stamping with Other Finishing
If the box is without lamination, the following foil stamping techniques can be applied:
- Foil Stamping Only
- Foil Stamping + Embossing: Creates a raised design with the foil.

Lamination adds a protective layer to the box, and foil stamping can still be applied in various ways:

- Foil Stamping on the Top of the Lamination + Embossing
- Foil Stamping on the Top of the Lamination + Debossing
- Foil Stamping Under the Lamination

Custom Foil Stamping Paper Boxes vs Metallic Ink Printing Paper Boxes
The choice between foil stamping and metallic ink printing depends on your design needs, budget, and box quantity. Below is a comparison of the two options:
Advantages of Foil Stamping Boxes
- Luxury Appearance: Foil stamping creates a more luxurious and premium look compared to metallic ink printing.
- Best for Small Quantities: For box quantities under 1000pcs and colored paper boxes, foil stamping is more economical.
- Ideal for Specific Designs: Foil stamping is perfect for logos and line graphics.
Advantages of Metallic Ink Printing Boxes
- Cost-Effective for Large Quantities: If the box quantity exceeds 3000pcs, metallic ink printing is more affordable.
- Better for Image Details: Metallic ink printing is suitable for detailed images and allows for gradient metallic colors (e.g., 40%, 60%, 80% metallic ink).
Key Differences
- Foil Stamping: Done after printing, with solid 100% foil colors (no gradients).
- Metallic Ink Printing: Printed with full-color printing and allows for gradient metallic effects.
