Frequently Asked Questions
Best UV inks for offset printing suppliers in the UK?

How to choose UV inks for offset printing machines?
When choosing UV inks for offset printing, consider your press type (sheet-fed or web), curing system (UV mercury or LED UV), substrate, and required print quality. Triwill Group’s technical team can advise on the most suitable UV or conventional offset ink formulation from our range for your specific press and application.
Benefits of using UV inks in offset printing processes.
UV inks for offset printing cure instantly under UV or LED lamps, delivering faster production speeds, immediate post-print handling, and excellent surface properties including high gloss and rub resistance. They are particularly effective for printing on non-absorbent substrates where conventional inks may struggle to dry effectively.
UV offset vs conventional offset ink differences and advantages.
UV offset inks cure instantly under UV light, offering faster throughput, excellent durability, and suitability for non-absorbent substrates. Conventional offset inks dry through oxidation and absorption and are used on standard offset presses without UV curing equipment. Triwill Group supplies both types to suit your press configuration and production requirements.
Which substrates are best suited for UV offset printing?
UV offset inks perform exceptionally well on non-absorbent substrates such as plastics, foils, and coated boards where conventional inks cannot dry effectively. They are also widely used on coated paper and board for premium commercial print applications requiring instant cure and excellent surface finish.
Safety guidelines for handling UV offset inks in a print shop.
UV offset inks should be handled with appropriate PPE including nitrile gloves and safety glasses, as uncured UV inks can be skin sensitisers. Ensure adequate ventilation in the pressroom and follow COSHH regulations. Always refer to the product SDS for specific handling, storage, and disposal requirements.
