It is a technology that produces transfer foil directly from design data using an on-demand printing system. The characteristic feature is that it does not require the plate-making process typical of conventional gravure printing or silk printing, allowing for immediate production of transfer foil. There are two types of on-demand transfer foil (ODF: On Demand Film): one for in-mold forming transfer and the other for heat transfer, both of which excel in small lot production and short delivery development.

NATS (air transfer) refers to a three-dimensional decoration technology that allows for the wrinkle-free application of pre-printed films (transfer films or laminate films) onto products with three-dimensional shapes (such as plastic, metal, and glass) by adding heated steam (super steam) to vacuum or pressure techniques in post-processing. This technology has established stable production. There are various names for three-dimensional decoration technology, but OMD (Out Mold Decoration) is the general term, which is further divided into OMR (Out Mold Release: transfer) and OML (Out Mold Laminate: laminate). In recent years, as global efforts towards carbon neutrality have progressed, there has been increasing attention on the transition from wet methods to dry methods (OMD technology).

In-Mold Release (IMR) is a three-dimensional decoration technology that creates products by simultaneously transferring a pre-printed design film (transfer foil) onto molded items during the injection molding process. It is possible to install the precise "foil feeding device" required for IMR on almost all "molding machines" worldwide, and if "dedicated molds" and "dedicated films (transfer foils)" are available, the establishment of IMR technology is feasible. In recent years, amid global efforts toward carbon neutrality, this technology has garnered attention as a necessary method for transitioning from wet processes to dry processes (IMR technology).
