Classification/Tag:Two-Component/UV-Curable/ Screen Printing
Features:UV-curable ink for glass bottles and other glass substrates, offering excellent chemical resistance. UVGL base coat for hot stamping can achieve a metallic effect.
Limited resources and energy efficiency arekeywords often mentioned in the glass sector.Current regulations like the European Directive 94/62 indicate the change from ceramic enamels towards UV curing. Experts agree: In glass printing, UV-curable inks are on the road to success.
Application
The most important benefit of UVGL: Highest resistances without additional post baking! The economic implications are obvious - the absence of oven drying leads to significant time (seconds vs. hours curing time) and energy savings (not uncommon to reduce by 65%).
Application Substrates
• Restaurant and container glass (drinking glasses and bottles, cosmetic flacons, etc.)
• Large area flat glass for interior decoration (tabletops, cabinet doors, showers, mirrors, gambling machines)
