Spectratek's holographic decorative films are engineered
for ease of use, blazing color, performance
under inking, and durability. Just set any of
our thirteen diffraction patterns next to holography
from any other manufacturer and the difference in quality
will be obvious. Spectratek's diffraction patterns are richer
in color, depth, and clarity. Notice
that our embossed holography is always "On".
|
 |
| Whether
your viewing angle is straight on or almost 90°, the apparent brightness
of our product never weakens. Michael Foster's proprietary mastering
technology enables him to optically engineer Spectratek's embossed
holography to perform consistently regardless of viewing angle,
distance, or overprinting. |
 |
|
|
 |
|
We
strongly suggest for those printers, who are considering the use
of embossed holography from any other manufacturer, to print a
sample on the holographic product they are thinking of buying.
The sample's optical performance after printing will no doubt
have been greatly muted; the prismatic colors will look
duller and milkier, the overall contrast will be
diffused, the eye catching "action" of the holography
largely subdued.
|
|
Unfortunately dozens of printing and packaging companies
have discovered this feature of poorly made holography the
hard way. In folding carton and bag constructions,
holographic film laminated to paperboard is far more beneficial
than holography embossed directly on paperboard. Cartons
and bags made with film to paper or paperboard laminate
gain durability because polyester films are water repellant
and have a high tensile strength. The bottom line
is that all of Spectratek's holographic products outperform
the competition on every level.

Listed below are some of Spectratek's converted holographic
decorative film products, their general specifications,
and some of their sample end uses. Please keep in mind
that Spectratek can recreate all of our diffraction gratings to
incorporate such things as eye-marks for die-cutting, other
embedded holographic images, or non-holographic metallic
finishes where volumes warrant. If the conversion you seek
is not listed here, please
contact us as we have built our business on finding solutions
to almost any application architecture. Click on the images

Since 1987, Spectratek has offered a full line of pressure sensitive
adhesive film product for label printing, stickers, and signage
applications. It is more than likely that the first diffraction
pattern or 3-D hologram you ever saw was Spectratek's product.
We use only premium liners guaranteeing that the adhesion quality,
coating integrity, and surface flatness of our PSA
product are unmatched in the decorative film market. Our stock
PSA liner weights are 50 and 90Lbs, although the
full gamut of weights, (20Lbs - 150Lbs), are available
upon request. All of our roll format PSA films, regardless of
liner weight, are available in 1 or 2 mil films
with standard web widths of 24" and 39".
|
 |
|
 |
The stock master roll lengths for 50Lb PSA lined film,
(recommended for Flexo automatic labeling equipment), and 90Lb
PSA lined films are 5,000' and 2,500', respectively.
Lengths for other liner weights may vary. Conversion to smaller
roll lengths and widths is available per customer specifications.
For 90Lb PSA lined films, or greater, sheeting is available.
Please contact us for further production information. Spectratek
has also made available a number of specialty adhesive products
that include: PSA coated film with a clear PET liner, Nylon thermal
adhesive coated film, and film laminated to static cling vinyl.

Our line of holographic paper laminate can be used for any paper
application. Uses for this line include, but are in no way limited
to: gift-wrap, Christmas decorations, bags,

paper is constructed by laminating embossed and metalized 48
gauge, (1/2mil), ultra-clear polyester film to premium
quality paper substrate.
|
|
|
Our paper laminate is available on 30, (prime label stock),
60, 70, 80, and 100 pound paper stock.
Paper laminate rolls are available in web widths of 39.5"
and 54.5". Master roll lengths for 30lb prime label
stock and 70lb paper laminate are 6,500' and 3,500'
respectively, although we will convert to longer or shorter lengths
upon request. One mil paper laminate is available upon
request.

Spectratek's
holographic film to paperboard laminate is taking the packaging
world by storm. The gaming, video, cosmetics,
confections, food and beverage, health
and beauty, and trading card industries are all employing
the electric power of holography. |
|
| It
was in part to accommodate the soaring growth of this industry that
Spectratek's recently began and completed stage one of it's production
build out, more than tripling our capacity. Folding carton,
clamshell, and insert packagers around the world have
discovered how easy it is to give their customers the seductive,
elegant, and dramatically alive look that only Spectratek's holographic
film paperboard can provide. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
 |
The
most stunning look in all of packaging is when our holographic film
to paperboard laminate is used in combination with paperboard emboss/de-emboss
stamping. Lucas Films, Sega, Barbie, and Schick
have all used this technique in their packaging, giving their branded
names holographic highlights that glow electrically. Only Spectratek's
performance films can provide such dramatic effects. |
|
|
Our paperboard laminates are available with ½ mil film bonded
to 10, 12, 18, and 24-point board; 8,
14, 16, and 20-point paperboard laminates are available
on request. Spectratek will supply converted sheets to customer specifications,
the maximum width being 54.5".

Spectratek understands the complex material construction involved
in the creation of heat and cold seal flexible packaging
for domestic and international consumption. Capri Sun and McDonalds
have both taken advantage of Spectratek's ability to emboss striking
three-dimensional holography for their branded products.
