The saying is, "Good things are worth
waiting for", and this is certainly true for "EMBOSSALL". Yes "The future is
here, so "Get out of the Stone Age". Many of you in our trade of embossing &
foil stamping may have heard it through your current suppliers that an
alternative "counter die material was in the works", and or it was definitely
needed. Especially since the seemingly main product currently in use requires
mixing powders and liquids, while trying not to be overcome by their volatile
fumes and us veterans know, this has been out since the stone age. Well the
future is upon us and thanks to over a decade of research and development "EMBOSSALL"
was created. Yes, one of our Stone Age veterans created a way to make counter
dies easier, non-hazardous and with no volatile fumes. As many of you know this
is greatly welcome news to out industry. Remember when many
suppliers discontinued the powder and liquid product? That's because it is
"hazardous" and UPS & FEDEX imposed hazardous handling charges to ship and of
course these charges raised our cost, and our awareness to the fact that it is
hazardous, but now the future is here. EMBOSSALL "The Original Putty Counter
Die
Material" is a non-hazardous material and has no volatile fumes, user friendly,
easy to apply and fast.
EMBOSSALL was created to help press
operators make counter dies easier. The original concept was envisioned by
veteran owner/operator in California, Rick Arce of Ace Embossing. He felt that
there must be an easier way. Especially when hand mixing powders and liquids
came with no accurate measures. But, instead required hand and eye measuring,
precise timing or else oops! Start over. (Not to mention wasted time, materials
and volatile fumes.)
So the idea was to start with a material already in a putty stage. OK, now we know of putties, but how do we get it to harden and fast! That's when Rick realized he would have to partner up with a lab. The lab agreed and thought it was a workable idea. But it seemed that every time the putty was getting better and possibly working, the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) would change regulations and we would have to start all over again. But in the last few years, Rick contracted with a different lab. The new lab's expertise was a perfect match. Their knowledge of non-hazardous putties was ideal. Although it has taken a few years and revisions along the way, EMBOSSALL has been in use on live jobs for two years, and is now ready to be made available for industry use.
