What is UV or Ultra Violet Coating?
UV coating, or ultraviolet coating, is a very glossy, shiny coating applied to the printed paper surface and cured on a special machine using ultraviolet light. These special UV coatings harden, or cure when they receive ultra violet radiation.
UV coating makes your printed piece eye catching, and is perfect for products such as postcards, hand-out sheets, presentation folders, business cards and catalogs, or any product that can benefit from a rich, glossy and dramatic look.

What are the Benefits of UV Coatings?
Ultraviolet coating has several advantages over other coating methods such as aqueous coating or varnish. They include:

  • Very High Shine Finish
  • Good Abrasion Resistance
  • High Clarity
  • Environmentally Friendly
  • Instantaneous Drying Time with UV Light Exposure


More Ways to Make You Shine
The various kinds of coatings allow you to really make your printed piece stand out. Depending on what kind of end result you want to achieve, coatings can range from subtle to matte, shiny to nearly wet looking, as is the case with UV coating. And when the project calls for something to make the reader stop and say “wow”, UV coating is tough to beat. Use UV to make those rich, full color photos stand out, allow your strong graphical elements to pop, and really showcase your products, property or team on any print project.
