Applying varnish on labels can make them more resistant to various environmental factors such as moisture, heat, and abrasion. Varnish is a clear or translucent coating that is applied to the surface of the label to provide additional protection.
There are different types of varnish that can be used on labels, including:
- Gloss varnish: This type of varnish provides a high-gloss finish to the label, which can make it more resistant to abrasion and scratches.
- Matte varnish: This type of varnish provides a matte finish to the label, which can reduce glare and make it more difficult for dirt and fingerprints to stick to the label surface.
- UV varnish: This type of varnish provides additional protection against UV rays, which can cause fading or discoloration of the label over time.
- Scratch-resistant varnish: This type of varnish provides additional protection against scratches and abrasion, making the label more durable.
- Water-resistant varnish: This type of varnish provides additional protection against water, which can cause the label to become smudged or unreadable if it gets wet.
Applying varnish to labels can greatly improve their durability and resistance to environmental factors. It's a great way to add an extra layer of protection to ensure that your labels last as long as possible.
