Digital Printing Coating Solutions
Professional UV & Water-Based Finishing Systems for Digital Print Shops & HP Indigo Users
Why Digital Printing Needs Professional Coating?
Modern digital printing—whether toner-based (Xerox, Ricoh, Konica Minolta, Canon) or liquid electro-ink (HP Indigo)—faces three universal challenges:
▪ Easy Scratching & Poor Durability
Toner and electronic inks sit on the paper surface → friction causes scuffing.
▪ Weak Adhesion on Coated Stocks
On glossy, cast-coated, art papers, ink adhesion is weak → coating or primer is required.
▪ High Production Cost of Lamination Films
Film lamination is fast but expensive for small jobs, and creates plastic waste.
That's why thousands of global print shops are shifting to UV coating + Primer coating + Water-based coating as a flexible, lower-cost finishing method.

For high-volume digital printers.
2) Corona Treatment
Solves adhesion issues → mandatory for digital toner & Indigo.
3) Primer Coating (HP Indigo Special Primer / Toner Primer)
Improves surface anchoring → prevents peeling & cracking.
4) Water-Based Coating (Gloss / Matte / Soft-Touch)
Low cost, eco-friendly, suited for book covers & marketing materials.
5) UV Coating (Gloss / Matte / Textured)
High hardness (up to 5H), scuff-resistant, ideal for commercial prints.
6) IR/Hot Air Drying System
Fast-drying for water-based coats & primer.
