    As a leading China packaging box supplier, Shanghai DE Printed Box supplies the paper printed box, corrugated printed box and custom paper bag with the aqueous coating.

    Glossy Aqueous Coating

    Matte Aqueous Coating

    The matte AQ coating gives the paper printed box a matte look outside. It is like the matte varnishing, which softens and flattens the images slightly and adds a feeling of luxury.

    The matte black corrugated printed box is covered in a soft touch aqueous coating, with a high-gloss spot UV applied on the radio itself, as well as a few specified areas such as the side of the box.

    Aqueous Coating, AQ coating, is a water based coating applied on the print surface of the paper printed boxes. Like the varnish coating, it protects the print surface from rough-handling, scuffing during the transits and distribution.

    The AQ coating is usually applied on all-over the printing surface of the box, which offers a better protection than the Gloss Varnish Coating. The Spot AQ coating are not very common due to the high costs and worse sharpness of the print color than the Spot UV.

    The aqueous coating is widely used on the retail packaging box, electronics packaging box and cosmetic packaging boxes.

    Characteristics of AQ Coating

    The Aqueous coating dries immediately on the production line. One one hand, it shortens the turn-around time, making it very ideal for the short-run printing. On the other hand, the blemish to the print during the drying process in the traditional coating is avoided due to the instant drying. Aqueous coatings help hide the surface flaws and roughness in the blank areas of cheap papers.

    Beside the print protection, the Aqueous coating has also some special characteristics.

    • More environment friendly than the Varnish coating.
    • Resistant to become yellow. Even after years, the color print on the box surface remain vivid and astonishing.
    • Fast drying to reduce the production turnaround time.

    The AQ coating or varnishing is widely used on the litho-laminated E flute corrugated box and corrugated mailer boxes. It gives the custom paper box a glossy or matte look outside.
