An Overview of Embossing
Embossing creates texture or 3D features by raising the surface above or below the material’s level. To achieve this, designers cut the artwork into a steel plate, which then presses into the material—usually paper or cloth—forming a design that stands out from its background.
Businesses often combine embossing with other printing methods, such as screen printing or digital printing. This approach helps them create fabrics and objects with intricate shapes and patterns. The most common applications for embossed promotional products are business cards and envelopes, product packaging, key chains, book covers and even jewelry boxes.
Businesses also use embossing for corporate stationery, including letterheads, notebooks, and folders. It also enhances branding elements like logos or labels on clothes and products. With proper care, embossed products can last for decades with minimal wear-and-tear thanks to their durable nature.

Embossing makes printed images stand out from their surroundings, so they look more professional than just ink alone. It not only looks good but also helps promote branding in the long run since embossed items will stand up to everyday wear-and-tear better than regular printings would over time due to its raised nature which prevents smearing or fading of details over time.
