Next-Gen UV Coatings Provide Water Resistance and Protection for Labels

Next-Gen UV Coatings Provide Water Resistance and Protection for Labels

Flexographic and digital converters can now achieve true submersion water resistance on paper, film, synthetic and rigid plastic stocks printed with hybrid, HP Indigo, or UV inks.

S-OneLP brings you two high-performance UV coatings engineered to meet that challenge. Applied as a protective layer, Kustom Koatings’ KK810 (Gloss) and KK812 (Matte) shield labels and prevent water, rub, and chemical damage giving labels added durability and long-lasting shelf-appeal.

With KK810 (Gloss) and KK812 (Matte), you can confidently expand into applications where labels face direct water exposure. Unlock opportunities in refrigerated food, beverage, health & beauty, paint, home improvement and automotive markets. Elevate your offerings with coatings designed to protect, perform, and drive shelf appeal.




Benefits to Your Business

Hear from one of our customers, Jason Zaleski, Digital Supervisor of Specialty Printing & Packaging Technologies, about the positive impact KK810 and KK812 made on label production. 

“For one of our largest customers, we print labels affixed to plastic containers that sit in the refrigerated fruit/produce section of markets around the country. We had issues with thermal imprinted expiration dates and lots numbers rubbing off the labels due to moisture from the refrigeration sections. This problem occurred at the stores due to handling the containers or the products rubbing against each other on the shelves. To solve this challenge, S-OneLP collaborated with Kustom Group to create Kustom Koatings KK810 and KK812. These UV coatings are thermal transfer receptive and moisture resistant. These products have been a tremendous improvement for us economically and  a production time saver as well.”
