Two Sided Aqueous High Gloss Lacquer

Two sided aqueous high gloss lacquer is a water-based high gloss coating made for packaging work that is coated on both sides of the sheet, so that both faces of the printed pack carry a bright, protective gloss finish.

Key Features

• Both-sides gloss: A bright, high gloss finish on both faces of the sheet, so the pack or card looks finished from either side.
• Blocking and marking resistance: A dried film formulated to resist marking and blocking when coated sides contact rollers.
• Deep colour on both sides: A smooth, reflective film that deepens colour and sharpens artwork on the front and the reverse of the work.
• Print protection on both faces: Durable surface films that help resist scuffing and handling marks on both sides during packing, transport and display.
• Water-based, production-friendly: Aqueous formulation for in-line and off-line two-sided coating, with drying and handling to be qualified on the converter’s line.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a two sided aqueous high gloss lacquer?

A two sided aqueous high gloss lacquer is a water-based high gloss coating made for work coated on both sides of the sheet, giving a bright, protective gloss finish on both faces, so the pack, cover or card looks finished from either side.

How is it different from a general high gloss coating?

A general high gloss coating is normally applied to one side, while a two-sided lacquer is formulated and specified for both-sides work, where drying, handling, marking and blocking between sides are critical.

Will two-sided coating cause marking or blocking?

It can, if drying and handling are not controlled. Each side must be dried sufficiently before it contacts another surface, and stacking and turning must be planned around two coated surfaces.

Can two-sided lacquer be applied in-line?

It depends on the converter’s press and coating configuration. Some lines can coat both sides in sequence in-line, while others coat each side off-line as a separate pass.
