At K-Systems, we carry many hot foils for many different substrates.<\/p>\n<p>We have foils that will adhere to coated and uncoated paper stock as well as plastic leather and many other applications. Batch and code foils are also available as well as pharmaceutical grade foils.<\/p>\n<h2>Toner Foil<\/h2>\n<p>This foil works with laminating machine. Toner foil reacts with the printed black toner on the paper to create a glue.<\/p>\n<p>Toner foil will stick to un-coated paper that has been printer with laser jet printer. Wide range of colours to choose from.<\/p>\n<h2>Textile Foil<\/h2>\n<p>Also known as fabric foils. This process is achieved by screen printing a layer of glue on to your fabric and then heat pressing the foil to the glue.<\/p>\n<p>Our foil a very durable and go through some extreme wash tests.
