Key Features

The CTSH grade is a free releasing transfer product with good adhesion onto offset cold transfer adhesives, both UV curing and conventional drying. It has a very receptive surface facilitating in-line or off-line over-printing with UV curing and conventional drying offset inks, so providing the opportunity to create a wide spectrum of eye-catching, multi-coloured holographic effects. Good fine detail, solid area coverage and high brilliance or gloss.
