Find the right solution for you
ACTEGA’s UV coatings are designed to be used with a range of different films and substrates.
Our coatings are benzophenone-free and are formulated to reduce yellowing, odor, and curl. They boast excellent resistance to cracking and good scratch and abrasion resistance; they are also highly water-resistant, slip-resistant, and boast strong adhesion and flexibility—they bond particularly well to polyester substrates. In addition, they are suitable for vacuum metallization.
