What Is Printable Holographic Metallic PVC Foil?
Printable Holographic Metallic PVC Foil is a multi-functional decorative card material that combines the properties of PVC with metallic or holographic optical effects.
Unlike conventional white PVC card sheets, this material provides an additional visual layer that can create reflective, rainbow, iridescent or metallic effects on the finished card.
The printable surface allows card manufacturers to combine holographic effects with customized graphics, logos, text and brand elements.
Depending on the project, Wallis can provide different decorative effects, including:
Holographic rainbow
Metallic silver
Metallic gold
Mirror
Iridescent
Brushed metallic
Light-beam
Geometric holographic
Custom optical patterns
The final visual effect depends on the material structure, printing method, ink system and card construction.
