FAQ's
What does ‘PP’ mean?
‘PP’ commonly stands for “pages” in the context of booklets or documents, indicating the total number of pages.
What is the difference between flat and raised 3D spot UV?
Flat spot UV involves applying a glossy, transparent coating to specific areas of a printed surface, creating a subtle shine without raising the printed elements. In contrast, raised 3D spot UV adds an elevated dimension to selected areas, providing a tactile and textured effect in addition to the glossy finish.
Why isn’t spot UV possible with gloss lamination?
Spot UV and gloss lamination serve similar purposes in enhancing print materials, but cannot be combined because the gloss lamination process covers the entire surface uniformly, including the areas where spot UV is applied. Spot UV requires specific areas to remain uncoated to create contrast, making it incompatible with gloss lamination.
What kind of designs work well with spot UV?
Spot UV works well with designs that have high contrast, such as bold typography or intricate patterns, as it creates a visually striking effect by adding a glossy, raised layer to specific areas. Logos, text, or images with fine details can also benefit from spot UV to enhance visual appeal and create a tactile experience.
How does matt or soft-touch lamination compliment spot UV?
Matt or soft-touch lamination compliments spot UV by providing a smooth, velvety finish to the overall design, creating a tactile contrast to the glossy and raised areas enhanced by spot UV. This combination not only adds visual interest but also enhances the sensory experience, making the printed material both visually and texturally appealing.
What is the difference between matt and soft-touch lamination?
Matt lamination provides a flat, non-reflective finish, giving a subdued appearance and adding durability. Soft-touch lamination, on the other hand, offers a tactile, velvety feel, enhancing the perception of luxury and sophistication while also protecting against wear and tear.
