Applied Innovation

Here is how it works—a film web is embossed with a pattern and supplied on a roll. PaperWorks lays down a UV-curable coating on the substrate and the pattern film is nipped to the substrate, creating a laminate of substrate, coating, and film. The laminate structure passes under a UV lamp to set the coating and then the film is lifted off the substrate, leaving its pattern in the cured coating. The embossed pattern film is then rewound and reused multiple times.
