Full-coverage UV varnish

UV varnishes have a completely different composition compared to printing and dispersion varnishes. They are applied by a varnishing unit, while the individually varnished sheets are then exposed to UV light to instantly harden the layer of varnish. Gloss UV varnish is primarily used for full-coverage applications. It protects the printed material from ink streaking and increases its overall value, especially with respect to the covers of periodicals and catalogues. It serves as a replacement for full-coverage lamination in many cases.
