PC Plastic/Cold Foils Series — PLASTIC/COLD FOILS SERIES
PC series is PINTE's professional solution specifically engineered for hot stamping on various plastic substrates. As cosmetic packaging and consumer electronics manufacturing continues to grow in Southeast Asia, the demand for reliable plastic stamping has increased dramatically – PC series was developed to meet this market need with a specialized adhesive formula that achieves excellent adhesio…
Industry Challenges We Solve
Common pain points: Scratches Off, Poor Weatherability, High Plate Cost, Slow Lead Time, Draw Cracks, Transport Wear. The PC Plastic/Cold Foils Series addresses these with Alcohol Resistant, Good Slitting, UV Compatible.
Key Features
- Alcohol Resistant: Withstands alcohol wiping, meets cosmetic packaging standards.
- Good Slitting: Neat edges, no burrs, no foil dusting.
- UV Compatible: Supports subsequent stamping on UV varnish surfaces.
Product Structure
- PET carrier: Supports coating, slitting, rewinding, and stamping stability.
- Release layer: Controls transfer completeness and edge sharpness from carrier to substrate.
- Color / metallic / pigment layer: Creates gold, silver, matte, holographic, pigment color, or glitter effects.
- Adhesive / transfer layer: Determines adhesion on paper, plastic, leather, label stock, and other substrates.

Factory verification and citable facts
The stability of PC Plastic/Cold Foils Series cannot be judged by color cards alone. Before mass production, substrate material, surface energy, ink or UV varnish condition, die engraving depth, press type, and downstream packaging requirements should be checked in one sampling record. PINTE usually confirms the application first, then uses A4 sheets or small sample rolls to evaluate transfer completeness, edge definition, adhesion, rub resistance, and color consistency.
- Structure check: PET carrier, release layer, color or metallic layer, and adhesive layer jointly determine the transfer window.
- Process check: flat stamping, rotary stamping, cold foil, digital enhancement, and large solid areas require different pressure and speed windows.
- Acceptance check: record temperature, pressure, speed, roll width, core, winding direction, batch number, and target substrate together.

References and compliance context
Hot stamping foil selection is affected by substrate, surface treatment, ink or varnish system, stamping temperature, pressure, dwell time, and downstream resistance requirements. The REACH and RoHS links explain common European chemical and restricted-substance context used in procurement discussions; order decisions should still follow the target market, test items, and batch test reports.
