ABOUT ALDUS MACHINES

Engineering Excellence. Built on Decades of Experience.

 

ALDUS MACHINES, the machinery division of ALDUS GROUP, combines the expertise of STARFOIL and NEWFOIL to deliver advanced machinery, technical know-how, and reliable after-sales support for the print, packaging, and label finishing industries.

The foundations of ALDUS MACHINES date back to 1983, when STARFOIL established itself as a specialist manufacturer and supplier of hot stamping and converting equipment. Over the following decades, the company developed extensive expertise in hot stamping, die-cutting, foil converting, spooling, slitting and cutting technologies, with machines now operating throughout the world.

Originally founded in the United Kingdom in 1982, NEWFOIL has evolved into a successful international organisation with extensive expertise in advanced finishing solutions. The acquisition of NEWFOIL by ALDUS MACHINES in 2023 further strengthened this expertise by adding one of the industry's most respected names in roll-fed hot foil stamping and embossing systems for the label and narrow web markets.

Together, the two brands now offer customers an even broader portfolio of solutions covering both sheet-fed and roll-fed finishing applications.

Today, ALDUS MACHINES offers an integrated portfolio that includes:

  • Sheet-fed Hot Stamping Machines
  • Roll-fed Hot Foil Stamping Systems
  • Die-Cutting & Creasing Equipment
  • Foil Spooling & Slitting Systems
  • Foil Cutting Machines
  • Core Cutting Systems
  • Installation, Service, Training and Technical Support

Our customers include commercial printers, packaging converters, label manufacturers, foil producers and distributors across Europe and international markets.

As part of ALDUS GROUP, ALDUS MACHINES combines the flexibility of a specialist engineering business with the strength of an international organisation. Continuous investment in innovation, engineering excellence and customer support ensures that our solutions continue to meet the evolving demands of modern print and packaging production.

At ALDUS MACHINES, we believe that exceptional machinery is only part of the equation. Long-term customer partnerships are built on technical expertise, responsive service, reliable support and a commitment to helping customers achieve sustainable productivity and lasting commercial success.
