At BonitoPack, we use UV coating to elevate the look and feel of custom packaging boxes, whether you’re showcasing luxury cosmetics, tech gadgets, or gourmet treats.
UV (ultraviolet) coating is a high-gloss, liquid-based finish that’s cured instantly using ultraviolet light. Once exposed to UV rays, the coating hardens to form a durable, crystal-clear layer that not only amplifies printed colors but also adds a sleek, polished effect to your packaging.
Unlike water-based coatings, UV coating offers a thicker, more dramatic shine, making it ideal for designs that demand attention on shelves or in unboxing videos.
UV coating is often used to highlight specific design elements, like logos, patterns, or images, by making them pop against a matte or soft-touch background. It creates a bold contrast and brings depth to flat prints. This makes it a favorite choice for brands seeking a sophisticated or upscale aesthetic.
At BonitoPack, we apply UV coating in full coverage or as spot UV, a technique that coats only selected areas for added dimension and style.
Compared to aqueous coating, UV provides a more vibrant, glossier, and thicker finish. It’s also more durable but less environmentally friendly. While aqueous is best for eco-conscious brands, UV coating is the right choice when visual impact and surface strength are top priorities.
Smooth and coated papers yield the best results, as they allow the UV finish to cure evenly and maintain a glossy appearance without distortion.
When applied properly and cured correctly, UV coating forms a tough layer that resists cracking and maintains its shine over time.
Yes, UV coating can be layered over matte or soft-touch lamination for contrast, or paired with embossing and foil stamping to create a multi-dimensional effect.
UV coating is not water-based, so it’s less eco-friendly than aqueous options. However, it produces minimal VOCs and is considered safe for many packaging applications.
Spot UV targets specific areas of the design (like logos or titles), while full UV covers the entire printed surface for a uniform glossy look.
