Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What's the difference between spot UV and full UV coating?
A: Spot UV boxes feature selective application on specific design elements, creating contrast between coated and uncoated areas. Full UV coating covers the entire surface with a consistent finish. Spot UV is used for decorative effect, while full UV primarily provides protection.

Q: How durable is spot UV coating?
A: UV coating is exceptionally durable and resistant to scuffing, fading, and moisture. The cured coating creates a hard, protective surface that maintains its appearance throughout normal handling and shipping.

Q: Can spot UV be combined with other finishing techniques?
A: Absolutely! Spot UV boxes often combine beautifully with foil stamping, embossing, and debossing. The contrast between metallic finishes and glossy UV coating creates particularly stunning visual effects.

Q: What is your minimum order quantity for spot UV boxes?
A: Our MOQ starts at 400 boxes for standard spot UV coating, making sophisticated contrast finishing accessible to growing brands. Larger quantities receive significant per-unit cost reductions.

Q: Can I get samples to evaluate the spot UV effect before ordering?
A: Yes! We strongly recommend ordering physical samples to see how the spot UV effect looks in different lighting conditions and to evaluate the tactile quality before full production.
