Scodix Polymers
Ensuring reliability, high-end quality and overall performance of the complete Scodix solution
Scodix digital enhancement printing allows ordinary products and applications to become extraordinary creations and saving on costs.
Scodix polymers are clear liquids. These polymers are cured with UV lamps on the Scodix press to produce the numerous effects designed to make sure products stand out.
In conventional processes, embossing requires two dies and a separate press run after any varnishing or laminating.
Texture is a combination of how a print looks and how it feels to the touch and is directly associated with the build-up of the Scodix PolySense™ on the surface. Create high elevated surfaces together with different densities, allowing the user to turn the flat printed image into an experience for the user who touches and feels the surface.
