Pulse Roll Label Products has launched Coldfix, an UV curable adhesive for cold, die-less foiling.
Alan Day, sales manager says: “Coldfix is formulated to overcome the common problem of pin-holing through improved wetting of the substrate by the adhesive and the uniformity provided by UV curing. The adhesive is supplied as a single component product ready to use press side from the container. Using the cold foil process also enables the press to run at higher speeds with reduced cost as compared to hot foil applications that require longer dwell times with the higher related expense of heated dies”.
Coldfix is designed for use with the flexo process using an anilox roll to transfer the adhesive to a photopolymer plate in the selected image. The substrate is subsequently ‘printed’ with the foil, which then passes between a nip roll and on through the UV Lamp and cures the adhesive through the foil leaving the specified foiled image with excellent bond strength.
