From bronze powder in 1956 to foil reels
in 1982, one Chennai family still checks every shade
against a retained master.
A family business, run on its word
STP Foils began in 1956 as Sha Tarachand Parasmal, supplying bronze powder to Chennai's printers. In 1982 it moved into stamping foils, and it was incorporated as STP Foils LLP in 2019. The range widened over the decades, and the promise didn't change: the roll you order today behaves like the roll you ordered last season. Same shade, same release, same result on press.
