Opaque white

Through the application of opaque white the substrate is covered and optimal printability is ensured. Opaque white is employed particularly in case of metallized labels. It also guarantees color-fast printability on transparent plastic films or on coloured substrates.

Through the use of innovative titanium oxides, opaque white is provided with a very high grade of whiteness and is characterized by a very good overprint capability with conventional and UV inks. Applied out of the coating unit before printing a sufficiently good coverage is achieved with just one application. The opaque white is dried immediately by the dryer after the coating unit which improves the subsequent printability.

TerraEffekt offers waterbased and UV opaque white for application out of the coating unit.
