DataLase Coatings
DataLase manufactures and supplies a wide range of laser-reactive coatings, optimised to deliver highest print quality and lowest running costs.
DataLase WBF Coating
DataLase WBF Coating is designed for use in the paper and corrugated printing industries in either flexographic pre-print or post-print processes, or lithographic presses equipped with water based coating units.
Developed as an alternative to print & apply labelling and high resolution inkjet printing of shipping data onto corrugated boxes (e.g. GS1 compliant barcodes, variable price/weight information, variable contents/ingredients data), DataLase WBF Coating addresses the challenges faced by brand owners and retailers seeking novel solutions to their mandatory shipping data needs.
DataLase WBF Coating formulations have been optimised to provide unsurpassed product stability and excellent flow properties. When used in combination with an appropriate CO2 laser marking system, DataLase WBF Coating helps eliminate label backing waste and/or hazardous ink disposal from supply chains by removing the need for consumables in production/manufacturing environments.
DataLase WBF Coatings can be used for Case Coding in a variety of box labelling applications including Shelf Ready Packaging (SRP) and e-commerce, on either brown or white paper and board substrates.
DataLase UVF Coating
DataLase UVF Coating is designed for use on narrow web printing presses and offset litho presses equipped with UV curing coating units.
Suitable for use on both synthetic and paper substrates, DataLase UVF Coating can be used to help address the challenges faced by production/manufacturing companies with Product Coding applications, such as printing expiry dates and lot numbers onto primary packaging labels. DataLase UVF Coating formulations have been optimised to provide unsurpassed product stability and excellent flow properties. When used in combination with an appropriate CO2 laser marking system, consistent high quality, high contrast, permanent black-on-white coding can be achieved.
DataLase UVF Coating can be used for food & beverage, home & personal case, pharmaceutical, medical and industrial label applications.
DataLase SB Coatings
DataLase SB coatings are designed for use in the flexible packaging sector in either solvent-based flexographic or gravure printing processes. The patch can be surface printed or reverse printed for subsequent lamination to provide anti-counterfeit tamper proof coding.
An alternative to continuous inkjet (CIJ) and laser ablation of variable data coding onto flexible substrates (e.g alphanumeric text, expiry codes and lot numbers). DataLase SB coatings address the challenges faced by brand owners and retailers seeking highly-legible machine-readable tamper-proof codes that require 100% traceability.
Coding & Marking solutions based on DataLase SB coatings help eliminate consumables from the production environments and are scruff/rub resistant reducing potential rework and waste. When used in combination with an appropriate CO2 laser marking system, DataLase SB coatings can help increase throughput and improve productivity through less servicing and maintenance of coding and marking equipment.
DataLase SB coatings can be used for product coding applications in a variety of markets including food & beverage and pharmaceutical on a range of flexible substrates.
DataLase UVO Litho
DataLase UVO Litho is designed for use on offset litho presses equipped with UV curing units.
Suitable for use on coated and uncoated folding box board, DataLase UVO Litho can be used to help address the challenges faced by production / manufacturing companies with product coding applications, such as printing expiry dates and lot numbers onto primary and secondary packaging applications.
DataLase UVO Litho formulations have been optimised to prove unsurpassed product stability and excellent flow properties.
When used in combination with an appropriate CO2 laser marking system, consistent high quality, high contrast, permanent black-on-white coding can be achieved.
