Coatings

Our printing presses are equipped with very flexible in-line coating units, enabling us to offer many coating options in a range of finishes including Gloss, Silk, Matt and Pearlescent. Oriel’s bespoke setup allows us to print up to two coatings in one pass. We can apply UV and aqueous coatings hassle free and our interchangeable Anilox roller system also gives us the ability to change the amount of coating required on the printed sheet to achieve the desired result. We can also apply spot coatings using either a Cyrel plate for exacting detail or simply cut and strip the coating blanket to allow for varnish free areas, like glue flaps.

Coating options include:

• UV Varnish
• Aqueous (Waterbased) Coatings
• Low Migration Coatings
• Soft Touch Coatings
• Pearlescent Coatings
• Barrier Coatings (oil / grease / water / heat resistant)
• Dew Drop (spot gloss and texture UV varnish)
• Pearlescent Dew Drop **NEW** - see below
• Latex Overprintable Lacquer
• SafeTouch Antimicrobial Coating - for more information click here... Safetouch
  
  
  

For something extra special we offer a coating finish called Dew Drop, which is a one-pass solution that really adds value. This inline spot gloss and texture UV varnish option delivers a selective spot gloss whilst achieving a tactile look and feel to the none-gloss areas. We have recently developed a new version of our signature Dew Drop finish which includes a gold or silver shimmer, called Pearlescent Dew Drop. Ask an Account Handler for more information on any of these finishes that are truly luxurious.
