Substrates
Years of experience in sheet-fed UV litho printing allows us to print a wide range of materials often seen as difficult along with the usual standard substrates. We offer an array of sustainable materials that can be fully recyclable, compostable, biodegradable and often FSC certified. Drawing on our experience of UV inks, varnishes, and printing techniques we can pretty much print anything that can go through a lithographic press up to a sheet size of B1. If it’s in sheet format and up to 1000 micron in thickness, it’s very likely we can print it. Every material listed below can be printed with our SafeTouch coating which is effective against SARS-CoV-2 (the virus that causes COVID-19 disease), for more information click here... Safetouch
