Put simply Hot foil printing is a dry process in which an image is transferred to the surface to be printed by a combination of heat and pressure. Its a very clean process that doesn't require special premises. With some basic tuition, hot foil printing is a rewarding and very simple and cheap process to run. Hot foil printing is an ideal full or part-time business to start up in the comfort of your own home, or even just as a hobby.
