Innovative Hot Stamping Processes for Plastic Surfaces
With our efficient hot stamping technologies, plastic surfaces are decorated with high-quality decorations using heat and pressure - even components with complex geometries can be decorated over the entire surface or in part. KURZ offers you everything from a single source: From transfer products and embossing dies to high-performance embossing machines.
- Hot stamping designs are durable
- Custom designs and holographic effects are possible
- The recyclability of plastic products is retained despite the decoration
Efficient Embellishment with In-Mold Decoration
With innovative decoration using In-Mold Decoration (IMD), plastic surfaces are embellished in a single, efficient step using the injection molding process. Even complex geometries can be given impressive surface designs such as haptic or metallic effects.
- Consistently high quality even for large-volume series
- Also suitable for complex geometries
- CO2 footprint can be reduced by 70%
Brilliant and Versatile Decoration with Cold Transfer
KURZ cold transfer technology ensures efficient decoration of large and small formats, both over the entire surface and with particularly fine details.
