UV Coatings



UV Coatings offer the following advantages:
-maximum gloss
-very quick drying
-low odour after drying
-press can run with maximum speed
-high rub resistance and slip
-good water, fat and dirt resistance
-optimal resistance to chemicals
-inline coating with UV inks and conventional inks possible

Special UV Coatings:
VP 1038: for inline coating of hybrid printing inks over the coating unit ("distorted grain gloss coating"); can also be applied over the inking unit after adjustment of the viscosity; low glidability
VP 1040: for high gloss coating of paper, carton and various plastics; high glidability
VP 10169: flexible, for coating of covers; high glidability
E 450: UV silk screen print coating; high glidability

Effect Additive VP 10010:
By adding Effect Additive VP 10010 to a special ink you can achieve a "wrinkle effect" ("leatherlike effect") when applied inline with UV Coating VP 1038.
