Key Features

• Flexible cured film: Formulated to bend, fold and flex with the printed piece without cracking, flaking or losing gloss.
• In-line application: Applied by a coating unit on the press, during printing, for efficient, integrated gloss finishing.
• High gloss finish: Gives packaging, labels and commercial work a bright, reflective gloss that enhances colour and shelf appeal.
• Surface protection: A cured UV film resists scuffing and handling damage, protecting print through finishing, transport and display.
• Instant UV cure: Cures under UV lamps, so coated work can move straight to finishing, folding or packing without a drying wait.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is UV flexible coating?

UV flexible coating is a UV coating formulated to remain flexible after curing, so it can bend, fold and flex with the printed piece without cracking, flaking or losing gloss.

How is flexible coating different from standard UV gloss coating?

A standard UV gloss coating forms a harder, more rigid film that may crack on folding. A flexible coating is formulated with a more flexible cured film, so it moves with the substrate when the piece is folded, creased or formed, while still giving gloss and protection.

What is in-line coating?

In-line coating is coating applied by a coating unit on the printing press itself, during printing, rather than by a separate off-line coater. It is efficient, integrated into normal production, and well suited to high-volume packaging and commercial work.

Will flexible coating crack when a carton is folded?

It should not, when matched correctly to the substrate and folding method. Flexibility should be tested in trials on your own board, with the actual folding, creasing and gluing the carton will undergo, before a bulk order.
