Spring Inks UV 111 (Pale) is a high-viscosity, UV-curable overprint varnish designed for conventional ink duct and offline UV coating systems. Featuring a pale liquid profile that cures to a 100% clear, transparent, and non-yellowing finish, it combines low characteristic odor with good slip properties. This coating provides excellent gloss, high mileage, and robust chemical and rub resistance across a diverse range of substrates.
Spring Inks UV 111 (Pale) is a heavy-duty, high-performance coating solution engineered for commercial printers who require precise ink-duct control and maximum film thickness. Its specialized formulation ensures high-yield coverage (mileage) while maintaining flawless optical clarity. Optimized for fast-paced production lines, it cures rapidly under lower UV light energy, providing an energy-efficient path to premium print finishing.
100% Clear & Non-Yellowing: Dries to a completely transparent, crystal-clear film that will not yellow over time, ensuring that underlying colors and bright whites remain sharp and unaltered.
High Gloss & Superior Mileage: Delivers an exceptional gloss finish with high mileage per kilogram, maximizing cost-efficiency on large commercial print volumes.
High Viscosity Control: Formulated with high-viscosity flow dynamics, making it ideal for stable, precise distribution through conventional ink ducts.
Fast-Drying & Energy Efficient: Designed for high-speed workflows; it cures exceptionally fast and consumes less UV light energy, which increases press throughput and lowers energy costs.
Tough Surface Protection: Imparts powerful chemical and rub resistance to the substrate, effectively protecting commercial packaging and publication covers from scuffing, scratches, and transport wear.
Good Slip & Smooth Handling: Provides a smooth, low-friction surface that eliminates blocking and ensures trouble-free performance during stacking and automated post-press converting.
Multi-Substrate Adhesion: Exhibits excellent, permanent bonding characteristics across a wide variety of paper and board substrates.
Low Odor Profile: Engineered with a low characteristic smell during both processing and curing to create a more pleasant pressroom environment.
