Abstract
The invention relates to a tool which enables articles to be deep-drawn without difficulty, even when the material used is of low elasticity and/or when a decorative sheet is used to produce a composite article. The tool includes a die which has a recessed zone which extends between a die opening and a die contour or an undercut. The recessed zone is delimited on one side at right angles to an end of the die. In order to hold decorative sheet in place, a mounting is fitted on a part of the recessed zone facing the end of the die.
