How much is inconsistency costing your IML production?

An In-Mold Labeling (IML) prototype may meet all design expectations, but before moving into mass production, it’s important to evaluate how the process will perform under real production conditions.

Anticipating potential variations early in the process helps you make better decisions, avoid costly adjustments, and prepare your project for production at scale.

November goes macro!

For the 2026 KURZ USA calendar, rock strata become a layered story of time and tension.

LUXOR® 220 gold highlights elevated planes, while LUXOR® 359 deep red intensifies depth between geological layers. Structured embossing recreates the tactile irregularity of stone. Not flat color, but dimensional terrain.

Surface becomes landscape.

Because when Hinderer + Mühlich precision stamping dies meet KURZ foil technology, complex layered textures don’t lose their character in production - they gain controlled, repeatable dimensional strength.

An unexpected opportunity can become the start of a great career journey.

Clay (Sterling Temple) joined KURZ more than four years ago, when he had the opportunity to become part of the team at our production facility in Lexington, North Carolina, without knowing at the time where that first step would eventually take him.

Since then, his journey has taken him from production to customer service and, ultimately, to his current role as Mid-Atlantic Sales Representative. This path has given him the opportunity to experience our business from different perspectives and use that experience to better understand our customers’ needs and support them throughout their projects.

How can a single foil create depth, contrast, and movement?

With Micro-Embossing, extremely fine structures incorporated into the tooling shape the foil surface during stamping, creating patterns that interact with light and change as the package moves.

This allows a single foil color to create different visual effects, emphasize specific elements, and add depth to the surface.

But these possibilities begin long before stamping. The precision of the tooling and its integration with the artwork, foil, substrate, and production conditions are essential to bring the intended effect from concept to a consistent application.

That’s why, with Hinderer + Mühlich, tooling becomes part of the creative process, making it possible to design not only the shape of the decoration, but also how it interacts with light.
