Large Format Advertising Coating Solutions

Professional UV & Water-Based Coating Systems for Wide-Format Printing, Outdoor Signage, Banners, and Vehicle Wraps

Intro Section – Why Coating Matters in Large Format Advertising

Wide-format advertising materials—including banners, vehicle wraps, outdoor stickers, signboards, KT boards, and indoor promotional graphics—require strong protection against scratches, UV fading, moisture, and long-term outdoor exposure.

Large-format digital printing (Eco-solvent, Latex, UV inkjet) produces beautiful images, but:

Colors fade under UV sunlight
Surface scratches appear during installation
PVC banners become brittle over time
Car wrap films need extra abrasion resistance
Indoor posters require matte or glossy enhancement

Coating is the simplest and most cost-effective way to improve outdoor durability and surface appearance while reducing the need for expensive laminated films.

Why Choose Coating Instead of Thermal Lamination?

1. Lower Material Cost

Film lamination (especially large rolls) is expensive. Coating significantly reduces cost per square meter.

2. Stronger Outdoor Durability

UV & water-based coatings protect against:

  • Sunlight / fading

  • Rain / humidity

  • Scratches during installation

  • Yellowing over time

3. High-Speed, Continuous Workflow

Roll-to-roll coating allows long production runs without handling sheets manually.

4. More Uniform Surface Finish

Ideal for banner factories and signage manufacturers.
