FOIL BLOCKING
We
have specialised, state-of-the-art spray painting equipment and employ time-served
professional spray painters. Glossbrook is happy to undertake
any spray painting as a post-moulding operation.
This
process can be utilised in those components that require opposite ‘halves’
to be sealed together. The result is a stronger and less alignment-error prone
alternative to gluing.
Print
of any colour can be added to components with hot foil blocking. As the description
suggests, the required wording, logo, etc is applied to an injection-moulded
component using special foil that is heated onto the component with hot foil
blocking machinery. The end result is rather like a transfer that lasts for
many, many years.

As
the process description suggests, ultra-high frequency sound waves are used
to vibrate the adjoining faces of mouldings to such an extent that sufficient
heat is generated to ‘weld’ these together. The process is suitable
for components moulded in some materials only – this is something
we can advise you on.

Working
in conjunction with customers and our paint suppliers, we can also undertake
R & D work to find the paint or coating that is best suited to a particular
application.
