Free radical varnish offers savings

3 May 2011


A new UV flexo release varnish from Pulse Roll Label Products is said to offer a low cost, alternative technology to the conventional cationic chemistry normally used for peel and read booklet labels.

“This new, patented varnish means that printers can achieve savings of up to 20% in comparison with cationic technology,” says Sales and Marketing Manager Claire Seward. “The varnish has undergone extensive blocking and ageing tests, and demonstrates both high gloss and optimised scuff resistance properties with long term release comparable and often better than with cationic systems.

“The use of cationic and free radical UV chemistry on the same press means there is an ever present risk of contamination that can lead to wasted varnish. Our free radical formulation eliminates this risk making it much easier to handle press side.”
