Sydney Stone launches instaFoil

One of the most popular print finishing technologies on the market today is the application of foil or UV coatings to printed pieces. This new technology from Canadian print finishing specialist Sydney Stone allows printers to easily, professionally and cost-efficiently apply spot foil and gloss coating in house. The special effects are visually impressive, elegant, and at the same time protect your pieces, said Sydney Stone. “Coatings provide protection form moisture, scuffing, scratching and fingerprints. Most importantly, they add enormous value for your clients.” The instaFoil will adhere to where your toner is printed on the sheet, which can be either the entire sheet or in a specific spot where you’ve printed an image. It can be applied to one or both sides of a sheet.
“We’re always looking for ways to help our customers add value for their clients and enhance profitability. With the launch of instaFoil Gold, instaFoil Silver and instaFoil Gloss, printers can now offer a luxury and value-added finish with relative ease, at a far lower cost than outsourcing,” said Michael Steele, Managing Director of Sydney Stone.
Sydney Stone was established in 1951, and since that time has grown to become one of the premier Canadian distributors of print finishing equipment and supplies throughout the world – importing and representing brands such as Morgana, MOHR, EBA, Vivid, Watkiss and Duplo, to name a few. With a focus on the short-run and medium-run print markets, Sydney Stone offers cost-effective solutions to the challenges found in this industry segment.
