Hot Stamp for Fragrance and Glass Cosmetic Packaging
Market Leading Efficiency & Strong Visual Impact
How is hot stamp decoration used to decorate fragrance and other glass cosmetic packaging?
Hot Stamp equipment is often used to apply decoration, branding and general information such as ingredients or instruction -on perfume and cologne bottles as well as on glass cosmetic packaging. Visual impact plays a very large role in marketing these items.
What is unique or special about decorating on fragrance and glass cosmetic bottles and jars?
Like in most markets fragrance and cosmetic brands and their suppliers require repeatable, efficient, high quality decoration. Due to the competitive nature of the fragrance and cosmetic markets- high end visual impact is also essential. Quality decoration conveys a premium quality to packaging and allows brands to stand out from their competition.
In the past this process used to be quite costly! Glass manufacturers and glass contract decorators relied on highly expensive decorating process to apply real gold or platinum to their fragrance or cosmetic bottles to achieve “luxury” visual appeal.
Today, CER has made it possible to achieve this same strong visual impact at a fraction of the cost. At the same time, options have grown. Today we can also provide a wide range of additional metalized colors to help brands differentiate themselves.

Why is primer needed for hot stamping on glass?
Hot stamp decoration on glass containers requires the application of a screen print primer. This primer is what the hot stamp foil adheres to. Poor primer application or improper primer curing has a significant negative effect on visual impact. CER offers a specialized screen-print primer ink as well as advanced expertise to ensure this process is perfectly and seamlessly integrated into your line.
