UV Matt Coating for Flat, Premium Print and Packaging

A uv matt coating is a UV-curable overprint coating that gives printed sheets a flat, non-reflective, premium finish. It is the general-purpose matt grade in the UV coatings range: the coating printers use when a job calls for matt without a specialist requirement for soft touch.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a uv matt coating?

It is a UV-curable overprint coating that gives printed sheets a flat, non-reflective, premium matt finish. It is applied as a liquid layer on a coating unit and cured instantly under UV lamps into a hard film with a micro-rough surface that scatters light creating the matt effect.

When should I choose matt over gloss?

Choose matt when the design calls for a soft, understated, premium finish — luxury and professional packaging, book and catalogue covers, premium labels and corporate print.

How is general matt different from soft-touch or screen matt?

General matt gives a flat matt appearance without a specialist tactile or textured effect. Soft-touch matt adds a velvety feel; screen matt adds a heavier, textured film applied by screen.

Can matt-coated sheets be foil stamped?

Not reliably with a general matt grade. If foil stamping is required, specify a foil-stampable matt grade, and discuss foil type and stamping setup with Triwill.
