Debossing on planners (Cyprus)
Debossing on planners in Cyprus — 100-ton press on PU leather and real leather planners. Runs from 30 units, 5–7 business day lead time from Limassol.
Why debossing on a PU leather planner is the most premium mark for Cyprus year-end corporate gifts
A Nicosia law firm wanted 80 branded A5 dated planners for year-end client gifts, each carrying a 60×30 mm recessed logo on the front cover. UV printing sat on the PU leather as a film; laser engraving was monochrome. Debossing at 100-ton hydraulic press recessed the logo at 0.3 mm depth into the PU leather, finished the run in 6 business days. Cost: €11.40 per planner on a Castelli A5 PU leather dated planner (12-month calendar).
