Cast and Cure Foil is a high-precision holographic transfer material produced using an advanced UV cast-and-cure process. It delivers dynamic 3D effects, dot-matrix lithographic patterns, and intricate micro-nano structures that are unattainable with traditional methods; notably, unlike standard cold foil, it is reusable.
Hongye’s Cast and Cure Foil is manufactured using an advanced UV cast-and-cure process, enabling the creation of dynamic 3D visual effects, dot-matrix lithographic patterns, and micro-nano structures that traditional cold foil cannot achieve. Its unique feature is reusability; the standard roll width is 100 cm, and custom sizes are available upon consultation with the Hongye team.
We also offer various types of screen-printable cold foil, digital foil, and other cold foil products—please feel free to contact us!

Cast and Cure Foil is a high-precision holographic transfer material produced using advanced UV cast-and-cure technology. Unlike standard cold foil products, which simply transfer a pre-deposited metallic layer onto the print, this foil reproduces complex micro-nano surface relief patterns on the target substrate. Cast and Cure Foil creates dynamic 3D optical effects and dot-matrix lithographic artistry that standard cold foil materials cannot achieve.
A key characteristic is its reusability: under appropriate processing parameters, a single roll of foil can be used for multiple transfers, offering cost advantages for high-volume holographic decoration jobs. As the pattern reproduction results are highly sensitive to the UV resin formulation, curing energy, and processing pressure, pre-production testing is recommended.

The actual number of reuses varies depending on processing pressure, UV resin properties, curing energy, and the substrate surface. Higher pressure improves pattern fidelity but reduces the usable lifespan of the foil.
A: Cast and Cure Foil creates holographic optical effects by replicating micro- and nano-scale relief patterns and supports multiple reuses. In contrast, standard cold foil primarily transfers a pre-formed metallic or holographic color layer onto a substrate and is intended for single use. The formulations and release layer designs of these two materials differ significantly.
A: The number of reuses is influenced by processing pressure, resin hardness, and substrate surface roughness. Excessive pressure accelerates the wear of the relief pattern. You can adjust process parameters to balance pattern quality with service life.
A: The MOQ for custom holographic pattern replication foil is 1m x 3,000m. Please note that a cylinder/plate fee applies to designs not currently in stock; for specific details, please consult the Hongye team.
