Typically, running high-volume printing and converting jobs demand the use of wider webs operating at high speeds. This enables providers to provide a competitively priced product. Both water-based and UV chemistry has proven to provide packaging manufacturers with many performance, quality and appearance benefits. One such visual benefit is created when applying a UV flood or UV spot coating over an image to greatly enhance eye appeal.

Advantages of using UV chemistry on Wide Web packaging applications include:

• Faster process speeds

• Flexibility to print or coat on a variety of substrates

• Instant Cure

• Chemical and Scratch Resistant
