Double Sided Glossy Coating — TWGW6040 Waterbased

TWGW6040 is a specialist water based glossy coating formulated for double-sided printing and coating applications on commercial offset presses. When printing and coating both sides of a substrate, the coating applied to the first side must remain stable and not cause blocking or surface damage when the sheet is subsequently perfected (printed on the reverse side). TWGW6040 is specifically formulated for this double-sided application, providing reliable gloss coating on both sides of commercially printed paper and board without blocking, back-trap, or surface quality issues.

Double-sided gloss coating is widely used in commercial printing for brochures, catalogues, folding carton, and other commercial print products where both sides of the printed sheet require a gloss coating finish.

Key Features:

• Double-Sided Application: Specifically formulated for coating both sides of commercially printed paper and board substrates.
• Anti-Blocking Performance: Engineered to prevent sheet blocking when perfecting (printing and coating the reverse side).
• Consistent Gloss Quality: Delivers reliable, consistent gloss levels on both sides of the printed substrate.
• Water Based Formula: Environmentally responsible aqueous formulation with lower VOC emissions.
• Offset Press Compatible: Designed for reliable in-line application on commercial sheet-fed offset presses.

TWGW6040 is the specialist double-sided glossy coating for UK commercial offset printers requiring reliable, consistent gloss coating on both sides of printed paper and board for brochures, catalogues, folding carton, and other double-sided commercial print applications.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the benefits of double sided glossy coating for commercial printing?

Double sided glossy coating ensures that both sides of a commercially printed substrate have a consistent, premium gloss finish. TWGW6040 is formulated to prevent blocking between sheets when the first-coated side is in contact with the press or delivery pile during perfecting — a critical performance requirement for reliable double-sided coating in commercial printing.

What are the differences between single sided and double sided glossy coating?

Single-sided gloss coating only coats one side of the printed substrate. Double-sided glossy coating requires a coating formulation like TWGW6040 that prevents blocking when the coated surface comes into contact with press components or other sheets during the perfecting process, ensuring consistent gloss quality and surface integrity on both sides.

What types of commercial printing commonly require double sided glossy coating?

Double sided glossy coating is commonly used in commercial printing for brochures, catalogues, folding carton, booklet covers, and other products where both sides of the sheet are printed and a gloss coating finish is required on both surfaces. TWGW6040 is specifically formulated for these double-sided coating applications.

How does TWGW6040 prevent blocking in double-sided offset printing?

TWGW6040 is formulated with specific slip and anti-blocking additives that allow the coated surface to release cleanly from press components and other sheets during perfecting, preventing the glossy coating surface from sticking or marking when in contact with other surfaces during the printing and delivery process.
