PlastiPrint™ : for mercury vapor UV systems
Process, Mixing & Spot Colors
PlastiPrint™ is a press-ready, high-adhesion offset ink that UV cures fast and sticks like glue to almost any plastic film. Derived from our UViDec™ series metal deco inks, PlastiPrint™ will tenaciously adhere to various plastic substrates such as PVC, Polypropylene, PET and other films* too.
Often, PlastiPrint™ will not even need a primer coating to adhere well enough to pass a tape pull adhesion test. Plus, protective overcoatings adhere well to PlastiPrint™ inks, thus providing extra protection from scuffing and wear.
PlastiPrint™ inks are formulated for use with commonly used mercury vapor lamps.
PlastiPrint™ is available in 4-color process, plus many permanent and coatable mixing color bases.
*Corona treatment may be necessary prior to printing on certain films such as polypropylene
