UV printing

A UV printer also prints white ink and varnish, so it can print on dark and transparent surfaces. The print resists scratches and sunlight.

What we print on

Materials the UV printer can print on. If yours is not on the list, just ask.

1 /

White ink

  • Dark surfaces
  • Clear surfaces

In ordinary printing, white comes from the paper. Black plastic or clear film has no white paper behind it, so the UV printer prints white as a separate ink.

That way you can print white text on a black frame, or a white base under a colour image on window film so the colours do not look see-through.

2 /

UV varnish

  • Gloss
  • Matte

Gloss varnish makes colours pop. Matte removes the glare that makes text hard to read under lights or in the sun.

3 /

Stickers and films

  • Stickers
  • Clear film
  • Gold and coloured films

Stickers for products and packaging, clear film for glass, gold and coloured films for decoration.

4 /

Perforated window film

  • Shop windows
  • Car windows

Film with tiny holes. From outside you see the image, from inside you can still see out.

5 /

Plastic

  • Signs
  • Plaques
  • POS materials

Door signs, information plaques and POS materials for shops. We print directly onto the plastic, with no sticker in between.

Price and durability

We price by how many metres of material the job takes. The more tightly the stickers or signs are laid out, the less each one costs.

When you do not need UV printing

If the lettering needs only one colour, such as white letters on a shop window or a car door, plotter-cut film is usually enough. Then UV printing is not needed.

UV printing pays off when the image has many colours, gradients or a photo. It is also the right choice for printing on dark or clear material, or when you need varnish.

Frequently asked questions

How much does UV printing cost?

€20 per running metre. We price by the length of material the job takes, so lots of small stickers on one metre come out cheap.

Can you print white on black?

Yes. The UV printer prints white ink, so it can print on dark and clear surfaces.

Is UV printing suitable outdoors?

Yes. It resists UV light and scratches.

Gloss or matte varnish?

Gloss if you want richer colours. Matte if the print will be under lights or in the sun, where glare would make it hard to read.

Can I order a single piece?

Yes, there is no minimum order.

Do I need to come to Kuldīga?

No. We agree on the layout and price remotely and ship the finished work by courier or post across Latvia.
