4. Product Safety Information - Toner Reactive Foils

The Foil Edit toner reactive foil products are decorative craft foils designed for use with laser-printed toner and a compatible laminator or foiling machine. Please read the safety information below before use.

Intended Use

·       For decorative craft, stationery, card making, invitation and packaging design projects.

·       For use with laser-printed toner on paper or card only.

·       Not suitable for direct food contact or direct application to skin.

·       Not a toy. Adult supervision is required if used by children.

Usage Instructions

·       Print the design using a laser printer or toner-based printing method. Toner reactive foil will not react to inkjet ink.

·       Place the foil over the toner-printed design with the reactive side facing the toner.

·       Use a compatible laminator or foiling machine and follow the equipment manufacturer's instructions.

·       Do not feed loose foil directly into a printer.

·       Allow laminated/foiled items to cool before handling.

Warnings and Precautions

·       Keep out of reach of children under 8 years of age. Foil rolls and small offcuts can present choking or entanglement hazards if misused.

·       Keep away from food, beverages and pets. Do not ingest.

·       Keep away from open flames, excessive heat and direct sunlight.

·       Do not leave a laminator or foiling machine unattended while switched on.

·       Use in a well-ventilated area and follow your laminator or foiling machine instructions.

·       Store in a cool, dry place and keep packaging away from small children.

Risks Associated with Improper Use

·       Using foil with inkjet printing will not produce the intended foiling effect and may result in wasted material.

·       Incorrect temperature settings may cause poor adhesion, foil transfer issues or damage to the laminator/foiling machine.

·       Misuse of foil rolls or offcuts, including wrapping around body parts, may cause injury.

·       Touching hot equipment or freshly heated materials may cause burns. Allow items to cool before handling.
