Hot Stamps for Plastic
Fitting hot stamping dies to contoured plastic piece parts has long been a specialty of F&S Engraving. When hot stamping plastic, a heat released foil is generally used to bring contrast to the impression. The same is true when hot stamping paper products. We can provide you with a variety of custom stamps for plastic and paper applications.
Hot Stamps for Wood
F&S Engraving can also manufacture hot stamps for your wood products. When hot stamping wood, the heat of the die burns the image into the substrate. Even though stamping wood is not as common in these modern times, F&S Engraving still produces a variety of stamps for specific wood applications.
