What is Holographic Foil?

Holographic foil adds additional value, flair, and movement to your product. Typically, holographic foil can be applied to most surfaces to achieve the look you desire. Creating a holographic foil print is very similar to another product we offer, metallic foil, but includes an additional embossed pattern that refracts the light.  A holographic foil piece is fluid and glittering, showing the different colors of the spectrum at every angle you turn your piece. Your pattern can be a custom based on your particular project design, or you can use traditional patterns and styles like stars, hearts, rainbows, stripes, etc.

The Impact of High-Visibility Enhancements on Shelf Presence: A Second Study

Capturing consumer attention can result in big business. High-visibility enhancements, further discussed in our previous post, increase product visibility, stimulate attraction, hold attention, and convey an image of value. High-visibility enhancements allow packages to jump off the shelf and become prominent in front of customers. The An Initial Study into the Impacts of High-visibility Enhancements on Shelf Presence case study indicates clear advantages to foil stamping on packaging and other high-visibility enhancements. This secondary study complements the previous study and provides additional validation, while also taking an additional step by evaluating purchase data. It shows that in a highly competitive category, where consumer personal preference is a significant factor in the purchase decision-making process, the addition of a high-value enhancement to packaging significantly increased the likelihood of purchase.
