Embossing and Debossing


In today’s crowded retail environment it’s imperative to create packaging that beckons from the shelf. Specialty finishing techniques such as embossing or debossing lend distinction and depth to a product that sets it apart from the competition.

Utilizing the latest in packaging technology we offer:

  • Embossing
  • Multi-level embossing
  • Blind embossing
  • Combination stamping (foil embossing)
  • Micro embossing
  • Debossing

The Diamonds are in the Details

When designing a piece with embossing, whether single- or multi-level, proper stock selection is essential. Paper characteristics such as dry vs. coated, recycled vs. virgin, and textured vs. smooth can impact how an embossed image will look on the finished piece.

Since ink, paper, die, and color selection are all key elements in the success of an embossed or foil stamped product, Diamond’s technical team gets involved at the design level to ensure that your package makes a great impression.
