In this edition of the Spotlight, Univacco introduces its ‘market-leading’ 1020mm wide-format CF5.1P Lite holographic cold transfer, engineered for sheet-fed offset applications and said to enable seamless, edge-to-edge holographic effects across large-format designs.
As brands expand visual impact across larger formats, achieving consistent, high-quality embellishment has become increasingly critical. Expanding holographic effects to large-format applications presents a key challenge: maintaining uniform, edge-to-edge consistency.
Large-area applications require stable transfer performance and precise interaction between substrate, cold foil adhesive, and ink systems. Any variation can lead to inconsistencies in gloss, coverage, or visual intensity.
CF5.1P Lite is designed to overcome these challenges, enabling uniform coverage across the full 1020mm width and ensuring reliable performance in large-format print environments. The result is a continuous, seamless holographic effect, even in demanding layouts.
Its performance is demonstrated in Univacco’s 2026 Cold Transfer Calendar Collection, where CF5.1P Lite delivers consistent coverage with an ultra-high gloss foundation. This enhances light reflectivity, increasing brilliance and tonal depth while preserving fine graphic detail across complex designs.
Beyond visual impact, the collection serves as a technical reference for designers and printers. It integrates annotated CMYK overprint values on holographic surfaces, providing practical insight into how inks interact with cold transfer to produce metallic tones and colour variations.
Additional features - including fine line structures (0.25pt - 0.75pt) and defined CMYK build-ups - enable precise evaluation of print performance. By bridging design intent and production outcomes, CF5.1P Lite supports more predictable results and improved workflow alignment.
Optimized for large-area, high-impact applications, CF5.1P Lite delivers consistent visual performance and stable transfer reliability, making it well suited for premium and collectible packaging, as well as commercial printing and other advanced print applications.
