Thursday, 2 April 2020 swissQprint’s Karibu features new varnish effects Uniquely featured and highly versatile roll to roll printer Karibu has been upgraded to enhance roll media by means of effect varnish. Specially developed for the Karibu, the varnish can be applied in a multitude of ways, used as an overall cover or in multilayers for tactile effects. It can be printed simultaneously with the process colours or as partial or full overprint in various gloss levels from matt to high gloss. In addition to enhancing the visual appearance, the varnish also fends off water and solvents to a certain extent and it even increases abrasion and scuff resistance, hence prolonging the lifespan of a print.
