Rolling Nanoimprint Lithography vs. Hot Embossing: Which Is Best for Your Application at Scale?
Hot embossing and rolling nanoimprint lithography (RNIL) both replicate nanoscale patterns through physical contact, but they’re built for different applications. This guide compares feature resolution, pattern fidelity, and scalability between the two processes and breaks down which technology fits photonics, energy, and automotive applications at industrial volumes.

OUR TECHNOLOGY
Accelerating the Industrialisation of Nanostructured Surfaces with HoloPrint® technology
Many nano-enabled products fail to scale because laboratory processes cannot be reproduced under industrial conditions. Stensborg addresses this gap with IP-backed Rolling Nanoimprint Lithography (RNIL), combining mechanical precision with localized UV curing at the nip point to enable continuous, high-fidelity replication.
The patented HoloPrint® optical nip architecture delivers focused UV curing directly at the imprint interface, enabling accurate replication of sub-100 nm structures across rigid and flexible substrates. The result is a scalable manufacturing process with improved yield, reduced material waste, and the throughput required for high-volume production of functional nanostructures.
