Spot UV

Spot UV is a screen printing process popular in the design and packaging markets. Spot UV gives a shiny coating to specific areas (spots) of artwork to create a stunning contrast while providing a luxurious touch to ensure your design stands out from the crowd.

At GLC, our Spot UV gloss coatings are all 100% recyclable.

Using high speed, automatic cylinder spot UV presses, GLC will apply a clear gloss, pigmented, or matt coating to specific areas of your design to enhance its features— sometimes producing a 3D effect.

It can be applied directly onto the print or on top of a matt lamination. Specific patterns can be incorporated into the design in clear gloss, such as linen, leather or dew drops giving the design an entirely new dimension.

Whatever your design, Spot UV can help bring it to life.
