Raised printing is a method of printing images or letters so that they protrude or raise above the surrounding surface. This creates a pleasing tactile effect, which adds depth and character to an otherwise flat printed sheet. It makes your products look stylish, professional and enhances the overall impression.
There is a number of techniques to create such an impression. At Printing New York we offer raised printing through embossing and thermography. Thermographic printing refers to two methods of printing. In the first method the paper is coated with a material that changes color under the influence of high temperatures. It’s often used in fax machines or any form of receipt printing. At Printing New York we also offer thermal transfer printing which melts print of the ribbon straight onto the project.
