Are you looking to enhance the appearance of your product packaging in order to dominate your competitors? You can achieve that by using spot UV coating or super UV coating. It is the process of applying a varnish that gives a glossy appearance to your packaging and is dried in the presence of UV light. 

The two terms are used based on whether the entire surface of the packaging is coated or only the specific region. In the former case, the UV coating is termed super UV coating, and in the latter case, spot UV coating. 

Now let’s get into the details of what are the incredible benefits of using spot UV coating for your product packaging. 

1. High Gloss Print Coating:

Spot UV coating gives the shiny and most glossy look to your packaging. The region appears different from the remaining area that brings the spot to the attention of your customers. It represents the most significant part of the design that could be the name of the product or your brand name. 

The easy recognition by your customers reflects the high probability of purchase and the chances of getting high sales for your brand become more inevitable. 

2. Extreme Clarity:

Spot UV coating does not affect the readability of the packaging even it gives a glossy effect to your product’s packaging. The surface area that is treated by the varnish does not fade away the colors of the design. It simply enhances the shelf life of the custom packaging boxes while the detail of the design becomes more prominent because of the clarity of the varnish. 

3. Abrasion Resistance:

If your packaging needs to travel miles before finally being handed to your customers, it required high protection from abrasion and marking due to friction. Spot UV coating makes the surface so smooth so no mark or scratch could affect the surface of the packaging. Your product packaging will reach the customers or retail fresh without any damage.    

4. Eco Friendly:

VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds) are man-made chemicals used as solvents in paints, refrigerants, and aerosol sprays. They have various effects on human health and the environment too because of their toxicity, carcinogenic, and impact on the oxidant formation of the troposphere. 

Spot UV coating does not require any volatile organic compound (VOC) as a solvent. So, they are not deleterious to the ecosystem. 

5. Lesser Production Time:

The varnish of spot UV coating when applied on the packaging boxes, it does not need a high amount of time to dry up. The instant drying feature reduces the production time. So, the early delivery and shipping of your packaging boxes become possible. 

Difference between Spot UV and Blind Spot UV:

Spot UV applies on the specific region without affecting the readability of the packaging design while blind spot UV applies on the darker surfaces of the packaging. The method of application of UV coating for both is somehow similar but the design strategy is different for the blind spot UV. 

Wrapping Up:

Spot UV coating, super UV coating, and blind spot UV are the brilliant finishing that make your product packaging unbeatable in the market. It does not require days to apply UV coating to dry up that extends the delivery time for your packaging boxes. However, they dry up very soon without eliminating any toxic chemicals in the environment. The end appearance of the packaging is so elegant and glossy that worth your investment.
