Revêtement aqueux

At BonitoPack, we believe your packaging should look as good as the product inside, and stay that way from production to customer delivery. One of the best ways to achieve that flawless finish and reliable protection is with revêtement aqueux, a popular, water-based coating option that enhances durability, boosts visual appeal, and supports eco-conscious branding.

What Is Aqueous Coating?

Aqueous coating is a clear, fast-drying, water-based finish applied to printed packaging materials. It adds a smooth protective layer over the surface, shielding it from smudges, scratches, fingerprints, and light moisture. Unlike traditional varnishes, aqueous coatings are non-toxic and environmentally friendly, making them a top choice for brands focused on sustainability.

Why Use Aqueous Coating for Packaging?

Aqueous coating offers the perfect balance of function and aesthetics. It enhances the printed colors on your boxes, giving them a vibrant, professional look while protecting them from wear and tear during handling, shipping, and shelf display. Its quick-drying property also streamlines the production process, ensuring shorter turnaround times.

Whether you’re packaging cosmetics, retail products, food items, or electronics, aqueous coating adds a refined finish that reflects your brand’s attention to quality.

Benefits of Aqueous Coating

• Respect de l'environnement: Water-based and free from harmful chemicals, making it safer for the environment and recycling processes.
• Rentabilité: An affordable way to upgrade the durability and appearance of printed boxes.
• Fast-Drying: Speeds up production with less risk of set-off (ink transfer between sheets).
• Enhanced Print Protection: Prevents ink smudging, scratches, and minor abrasions.
• Versatile Finish Options: Available in gloss, matte, satin, or soft-touch, allowing for design flexibility.

Applications in Packaging

At BonitoPack, we use aqueous coating to enhance a wide range of custom packaging boxes, including:

• Retail Display Boxes: To create a high-gloss or satin look with added scuff resistance.

• Eco-Friendly Kraft Boxes: To maintain a natural feel while improving moisture resistance.

• Food Packaging: Safe for indirect food contact and helps preserve packaging freshness.

• Luxury Product Boxes: When paired with specialty printing techniques, aqueous coating adds a premium edge.

Aqueous Coating vs. Other Coatings

Compared to UV and varnish coatings, aqueous coating is more environmentally responsible and faster to process. While it may not offer the same ultra-high-gloss shine as UV coating, it provides a more natural and smooth appearance, making it ideal for brands with organic or sustainable branding.

Whether you’re aiming for a sleek retail finish or a natural eco-look, aqueous coating delivers dependable performance with environmental responsibility.
