UV Coated Printing

UV Coated Printing in Thunder Bay, Ontario

If you're a marketer, business owner or graphic designer you've probably heard the advice that you should have your print marketing materials UV coated. You probably also know that UV coating provides a brilliant glossy sheen to your business cards, postcards, flyers and other materials; and it also provides a thick layer of durability to keep your marketing materials lasting longer so you get the most bang for your marketing buck.

UV coating is basically a compound that is applied to paper wet and then instantly dried by ultraviolet light. UV coatings can vary in reflectivity and thickness, depending on the application, though a high gloss or subtle matte are typically used in premium printing applications.  Just about anything can be UV coated, though it is worth noting that UV coating typically works best on thicker paper stocks.  Typically, business cards, postcards, booklet and calendar covers, catalog covers, flyers and sales sheets make great candidates for UV coating. 

There are three main reasons why you should have your marketing materials UV coated. The first, and most obvious, is that a UV coating will enrich your design and enhance your colors. This, in turn, lends to customer confidence because you are able to print premium marketing materials. When you print premium marketing materials, it says that you are successful. And if you are successful, you probably have a good track record of satisfied customers. Thus, your customers will feel more comfortable doing business with you. Finally, UV coating protects your marketing materials so they last longer. The longer your marketing materials last, the more they can work to earn a response for you, thus you will increase your return on investment and get the most out of your marketing buck when you have your print marketing materials UV coated.
