Letterpress Printing

At Laserfoil, we specialize in letterpress printing, a traditional technique that brings elegance, texture, and craftsmanship to your printed materials. By combining classic techniques with modern precision, we create stunning impressions that make your designs truly stand out.

A Brief History of Letterpress

Letterpress printing dates back to the 15th century, pioneered by Johannes Gutenberg as the foundation of modern printing. For centuries, it was the primary method for producing books and documents due to its sharp impressions and durability. Today, letterpress has seen a revival as a premium printing method, prized for its handcrafted, textured quality that digital printing simply cannot replicate.

Our Letterpress Process

We embrace the rich tradition of letterpress by using beautiful vintage presses, some over 70 years old, alongside modern techniques. Each piece starts with a custom printing plate, carefully inked and pressed onto high-quality paper using precise pressure. This results in a deep, tactile impression, giving your design a unique character that’s both visually striking and irresistibly touchable.
