Kernow Coatings... Creative Solutions

Why Hydro?

Polyester film wouldn’t be printable if it wasn’t for its coating, and coatings are what KC specialise in. We are constantly looking at improving our coating solutions and finding new technologies, especially helping the market trend to new digital printers. Whether it’s for aqueous, solvent, UV-curable inkjet or dry toner we have a solution for most demands.
Nowadays, 95% of our coatings are water-based solutions, including for pressure-sensitive adhesives (against the more commonly used solvent system). Why? Simply because they are cleaner to use during the production process and cleaner to dispose of. But are they resistant enough? Of course! Just think about the car industry, they too use water-based solutions in their paint systems now.
So, for clean coatings
