Question

What's the difference between Raised Foil and Raised Spot UV Pocket Folders?

Answer

Both add a raised, dimensional accent you can feel, but they create very different looks. The choice comes down to whether you want shine or subtlety.

FinishLookFeel
Raised FoilMetallic and reflective (gold, silver, copper)Luxurious, eye-catching
Raised Spot UVClear, glossy, no metallic colorModern, subtle, tactile
  • Choose Raised Foil when you want the accent itself to be a color and a focal point that literally shines and commands attention.
  • Choose Raised Spot UV when you want dimension and gloss without the metallic pop, creating a shiny-versus-matte contrast while the printed color shows through.

Both raise the same physical texture off the surface. Foil reads as premium and decorative, Spot UV reads as sleek and understated.
