Formulated with ultra-small matte particles, KK0011 delivers improved performance on roller coaters over conventional UV coatings. The KK0011 matte UV coating from Kustom Group was developed to meet the needs of an S-OneLP customer, a large New Jersey printer. Its production needed a solution for smaller roll to roll coaters and smaller anilox to deliver a smooth matte appearance while maintaining consistent viscosity and lack of buildup on the edge of rollers or doctor blades.
“In order for us to keep the matte coating from separating after being in the bucket for a while we would need to add a special vehicle. With the help of Kustom Group and S-OneLP, they were able to formulate this matte coating specifically for our application with great laydown properties, no separation, and good mechanical resistance! Thank you for creating the KK0011 matte UV coating for our Indigo Department.”
KK0011 is a versatile solution for converters and print shops seeking a soft, low-gloss aesthetic. With a typical 15–20 gloss reading at 60°, it provides a smooth matte appearance with non-burnishing characteristics, helping printed pieces maintain their finish throughout handling and distribution. This coating can also be used over UV offset inks, offering strong rub resistance and dependable cure response.
This formulation features low thixotropy and excels as a protective matte for custom designs with quick production turnaround. KK0011 offers efficient, predictable laydown, ensuring equipment produces an even, consistent coating. While not intended for imprinting, foil stamping, or gluing applications, Kustom Koatings offers another coating version for these functionalities.
