Spectrumcoat
Quality cost effective coloured coating for point of sale packaging
Spectrumcoat is an overall coloured coating that we have developed for use mainly in the Point of Sale display industry. This coating can be over varnished to give either a matt or gloss protective finish. Alternatively, we can coat it with Liquiguard, our water resistant coating for applications such as displays for garden centres.
| Save Money | Due to the flexibility of Spectrumcoat, you will be able to offer your customer the equivalent of preprint quality at competitive prices in very short runs. |
| Save Time | By using the Spectrumcoat process, utilising our high speed coating plant, we can normally deliver more quickly than either silk screen printed board or flexo preprint liners. |
Custom Matched |
All colours are pantone matched to your exact requirements, avoiding having to buy stock colours which don't fully meet your specification. |
| Single Source | We are able to coat a wide range of materials, which means all of your requirements can be met by one supplier. |
Most converters faced with printing an overall solid colour will attempt to print on their flexo printer slotters, this is not usually successful in comparison to preprint quality. With Spectrumcoat preprint quality is easily achieved, this means the converter can simply overprint any additional wording on the Spectrumcoat coating.
Spectrumcoat is available from 500 sq. metres, matched to your pantone number. This means that expensive silk screen printing can be avoided. Spectrumcoat is a viable alternative to short runs of preprinted liners.
Specification
The minimum board size is 250 x 600 mm and the maximum is 1500 x 4000 mm. The normal materials we coat are clay coated liners, fully bleached kraft, white top kraft and brown kraft. We would recommend that pale colours are coated onto a white surface whereas the darker colours can successfully be coated onto a brown kraft liner. Both matt and gloss varnishes can be applied over any colour.
With a maximum board size of 1500 x 4000 mm, nearly all the largest dump bins can be made in small quantities. The large sheet size that we can offer you means that Spectrumcoat is cheaper than the equivalent silk screen process and quicker lead times are normally acheived due to the high speed of our coating machines.
