Hot Stamp
About the Technique
Hot stamping (blind deboss) is an elegant branding technique, where a heated metal die is pressed into the surface of the material, creating a refined, tactile relief with no added color or foil.
The surface is shaped gently and naturally, making the logo or design part of the material itself — visible in the light and felt by touch.
This is a technique of quiet luxury — a statement made not through contrast, but through texture, depth, and detail.
When to Choose Blind Deboss
Blind deboss is the right choice when the brand aims to communicate high quality, sophistication, and confidence, without unnecessary emphasis.
It is ideal for situations where the logo should be present, but not loud — a mark of craftsmanship rather than decoration.
