NuCoat Launches PRESSCoaT

Press release from the issuing company

NuCoat, Inc. has developed a line of new press ready image coatings designed specifically for the narrow web label and tag marketplace. PRESSCoaT is preformulated to integrate easily into your production whether it is Flexo, Gravure, or Rod Coating.  

Our coatings allow you to make products on demand bypassing the need for costly and often outdated face sheet materials. Utilizing the same narrow web press you have in-house, our technicians can help you add the Direct Thermal or Inkjet Coated Surfaces you need in today’s digitally produced and fast paced market places.

To make the transition from inks to coatings, you will need our expertise and specially formulated coatings. NuCoat has the ability to make its coatings more narrow web press friendly by enhancements in viscosity and stability on the shelf through its unique manufacturing and formulating techniques.
