Spot Holographic Effects
Flood Holographic Effects
Stunning graphics, delivered affordably with Cast and Cure technology. Affordable, sustainable embellishment is achieved through Breit Technologies' innovative process.
Cast and Cure creates luxurious visual and tactile effects for packaging, collectibles, trading cards, gift wrap, and labels. This sustainable embellishment method offers inexpensive decorative coatings that produce ultra-high gloss, matte, or holographic effects on a wide range of surfaces.
Economic Benefits
Impressive ROI
Anyone sourcing large quantities of holographic material in any form should consider the advantages of Cast and Cure technology. Not only does it allow for creative applications of holographic effects in both flood and spot areas, but the cost benefits are remarkable. Since the film is reusable, it typically costs only 5-10 cents on the dollar compared to traditional holographic materials, offering an impressive PAYBACK ROI.
Sustainability
Worlds most sustainable holographic process
Cast and Cure technology creates its unique decorative effect by embossing ultraviolet coatings and varnishes. No harmful VOCs are emitted during this process, ensuring a commitment to sustainability. Additionally, because Cast and Cure avoids laminated metalized films, it does not compromise the native recyclability of a package. The ability to reuse Cast and Cure film multiple times makes it an economical choice. A wide range of sustainable UV coatings and varnishes can further enhance the sustainability of finished pieces while achieving stunning holographic effects.
Cast and Cure ™ Inline and offline application
Casting and curing equipment
One of the most exciting aspects of Cast and Cure is that for many applications NO NEW EQUIPMENT IS REQUIRED!
There are many existing cold foil equipment systems that can apply Cast and Cure.
Breit Technologies also offers specialized inline and offline equipment for many print environments. These solutions cover a wide range of printing processes including but not exclusively narrow web flexographic, sheet-fed and digital.
Flexible Packaging Casting
High performance packaging embellishment at low cost. Breit Technologies has introduced new Cast and Cure finishing equipment for flexible packaging. This new system enables low-cost decoration on a wide range of flexible packaging substrates. Traditional flex pack embellishments can be prohibitively expensive. Our new equipment optimizes application and re-use of Cast and Cure material, reducing the cost of embellishment to a fraction of a penny per MSI.
Sheet-fed casting
Narrow web casting
Dedicated offline embellishment. Our recently redesigned Offline Cast and Cure finishing unit is
designed with embellishment in mind.
This new unit is easily retrofitted
into a wide range of machines. With its small footprint this unit can be
installed inline with screen printing units, offline coating equipment and
digital/inkjet UV varnish application presses.

Narrow web casting
Use existing cold foil processing equipment! One of the most exciting aspects of Cast and Cure is that for many applications NO NEW EQUIPMENT IS REQUIRED!
We recommend systems from a wide range of cold foil equipment manufacturers and can provide processing guidance for most narrow web systems.
Wide web casting
Sheet Fed Integration (ScreenPress)
Sheet Fed Integration (ScreenPress)
Effective application in challenging environments. Decorating in wide web applications has traditionally been difficult due to inherent dimensional instability of many film materials. Our equipment allows for effective operation, despite these limitations.
Our recommended wide web systems decorate these materials with all of the same benefits available in narrow web and sheet fed applications.
