Varnish Benefits
Varnish | Traditional Protective Print Coating
Varnish is a traditional coating applied inline during printing, providing economical protection in gloss, matte, or satin finishes.
Time-Tested Protection
Varnish is the traditional protective coating for printed materials. Applied as a clear liquid that dries to form a protective film, varnish enhances colors, provides basic scuff resistance, and improves overall print appearance at economical costs.
Application Methods
Varnish can be applied inline during printing (most economical) or as a separate offline coating process. Inline application integrates seamlessly with offset printing, while offline allows for specialty effects.
