Foiling brings a luxurious finish to cosmetic products while maintaining functionality and durability

The importance of foiling in cosmetic packaging

Foiling has become a standard in cosmetic packaging, especially in creating premium, eye-catching designs. With the growing demand for products that stand out on the shelf, KURZ’s decorative foiling solutions allow brands to achieve a high-end look without sacrificing sustainability. Whether it’s for makeup palettes, lipsticks, mascaras, or skincare bottles, foiling enhances the product’s aesthetic with precision and detail.

A variety of finishing options available for cosmetic packaging

KURZ offers a wide range of finishing options that cater to the unique needs of the cosmetics industry. From metallic and holographic effects to pigmented glosses and high-gloss semi-transparent finishes, these solutions allow for flexibility in design. Each option is created to meet the demands of the industry while delivering stunning visual results.

For brands looking to make a bold statement, LUXOR/ALUFIN® metallised foils provide an elegant, reflective finish, giving products an immediate luxury appeal. On the other hand, LIGHT LINE® foils with holographic effects create dynamic visual impressions that shift with light, making packaging visually engaging from every angle.

KURZ's inLINE Foiling is particularly effective for cylindrical bodies, such as bottles and cosmetic tubes.

Precision in foil application

KURZ’s foiling technology ensures that the design possibilities are nearly limitless, from intricate fine lines to large decorative areas. Whether using traditional heat transfer foiling or cutting-edge Digital inLINE Foiling, brands can achieve the highest standards of accuracy and quality. These techniques allow for a high degree of customisation, with the added advantage of efficient production speeds.

Additionally, KURZ’s solutions are designed with durability in mind. Their foils offer high resistance to physical wear, abrasion and chemicals, ensuring cosmetic packaging maintains its pristine look even in challenging environments.

Tailored for every material

One of the key advantages of KURZ’s decorative solutions is their compatibility with a variety of substrate materials used in cosmetic packaging. Whether it’s plastic, glass or aluminium, KURZ’s foils ensure smooth application and long-lasting results. For example, KURZ’s inLINE Foiling is particularly effective for cylindrical bodies, such as bottles and cosmetic tubes, while also providing outstanding results on glass containers and aluminium cans.

LUXOR/ALUFIN® metallised foils provide an elegant, reflective finish, giving products an immediate luxury appeal.

KURZ offers sustainability and efficiency with foiling technology

KURZ emphasises sustainability in its packaging solutions. The foil decoration processes are designed to minimise waste and use eco-friendly materials where possible, aligning with the growing demand for environmentally conscious packaging. This commitment to sustainability makes KURZ an ideal partner for brands looking to reduce their environmental impact without compromising on quality.
