Techprint is a leader in specialty printed graphics, providing a range of superior capabilities, such as embossing. Our embossing service will add character to your electronic devices by adding a three-dimensional design on the surface. Our team of skilled embossers will ensure your design specifications and requirements are met and accurately transferred to any plastic surface you desire.

Embossing is an embellishment technique that creates a raised and more pronounced effect on a surface. It has a wide range of purposes, which enhances or adds function to a material that may have otherwise been flat and plain. Embossing is the process of making a little air pocket in the print for buttons. It is a stylized method of printing that can be applied to almost any material, adding texture and visual appeal. At Techprint, we use embossing for graphic overlays and keyboards and keypads. 

The embossing process differs slightly from other decorative techniques, as it doesn’t require a transfer paper or printing process. It’s an additive process that alters the material through pressure and heat to create a raised design.

This specialty printing technique is widely used in numerous industries, such as Hospitality, Automotive, Aerospace, Medical, Electronics, and more.

Techprint has two fully automatic machines that are dedicated to the highest of quality in embossing.

Typical applications for embossing:

  • Graphic displays
  • Keypads
  • Graphic overlays

  • Logos
  • Control panels

Embossing offers a wide range of benefits that go beyond aesthetics. It can be used as an effective branding tool, adding an extra layer to the surface it’s applied on, making it stand out.

Other benefits of embossing include:

  • Functionality: The most important benefit it offers is its ability to improve the functionality of an object. For instance, graphic overlays with raised elements make it easier for users to find and navigate through the components of an electronic device.
  • Increase usability: Embossing can provide ergonomic advantages to an electronic device, such as making it usable even in low-light situations where the users can pick out keys by touch.
  • More tactile feedback: Providing a more tactile feel is another embossing element. It reduces missed attempts of pressing keys, which increases user satisfaction and accuracy.
