    Crown Roll Leaf Matte Pigments

    The flat side of the pigment range. Opaque colour with the reflection taken out of it, which is where you go when foil needs to read as considered rather than as decoration — and the safest group for a light colour on a dark uncoated sheet.

    Crown Roll Leaf lists these 1 numbers in the Matte Pigments programme. We can order any of them. We have not published what they look like, because we would be guessing — and a guessed foil colour is a reprint.

    When to specify this

    Opaque pigment foil is what you specify for light or white type on dark or coloured stock. It lays a solid, fully opaque layer on the sheet — unlike white ink or white letterpress, which are translucent and go grey and patchy over a dark stock. A white pigment foil is a white FOIL STAMP, and that is what it should be called on a spec.

    Pigment colours here are photographed off the vendor's own stamped card, so they carry camera and screen shift. We match to the physical chip on your job before anything goes on press.

    Crown Roll Leaf’s own card for this programme

    One card covers the whole Matte Pigments programme — every number on this page is stamped on it. This is a photograph of real foil, not a rendering, so read it for character and let us match the physical card on your job.
