What is Spot UV?

Spot UV is the application of varnishes to distinct sections of a printed document, like logos or text, to achieve a glossy and subtly raised effect. While typical varnishes cover entire pages for a shiny or matte finish, Spot UV employs an extra plate to overprint varnish onto specific areas of the design. The ‘UV’ in Spot UV signifies the use of ultraviolet exposure to swiftly dry the varnish coating, resulting in a noticeable shine effect.

Why choose Spot UV for your business?

Spot UV adds a touch of sophistication and versatility to your branding. Here are some positive points:

  • Visual Appeal: Spot UV provides a glossy, raised finish that captures attention, making your business cards stand out in a crowd.
  • Professional Impression: The high-quality look and feel of Spot UV convey professionalism, leaving a positive and lasting impression on clients and prospects.
  • Textured Contrast: The glossy effect creates a textured contrast against the matte surface, drawing attention to specific elements like logos, text, or graphics.
  • Durability: With a robust 450gsm thickness, these cards are durable and long-lasting, ensuring they withstand the wear and tear of daily use.

File Format

File format must be either PNG or PDF.

Artwork Size & Ratio

Artwork must be sized to the banner size required or an equivalent ratio (e.g., 2:1). This is to limit any resizing of your banner, which could lead to stretching and pixelation.

Resolution

The ideal resolution of the artwork will be greater than 150dpi, but a lower resolution may be acceptable. We will double-check this for you before it goes to print.

Purchasing Multiple Items in One Order

If you are supplying multiple files for an order, please email us with a breakdown. This needs to include your order number and a description of which files are for which product. Where necessary, please specify quantities.

Our Pinky Promise

Order with Confidence

At Essex Banners, we ensure that every order meets the highest standards before production. Our rigorous multi-stage checking process guarantees that your products are printed correctly, using the right materials and specifications. From the moment you place an order, our team carefully reviews your artwork and cross-references it against your order details.

Most of our products are produced in our state-of-the-art European facility, where quality control remains a top priority. While our ordering system is highly automated, we still conduct several manual checks at each stage to ensure accuracy.

Our Quality Control Process

Every order goes through multiple verification steps before printing. Our file checking service ensures that your design files match your order specifications, giving you peace of mind that your products will be produced exactly as expected. If we find any inconsistencies, we will notify you before proceeding.

Step 1: Initial Order Review

As soon as you place your order, we carefully compare your artwork files with your order details. This includes checking:

  • Artwork size and dimensions
  • File format compatibility
  • The correct number of design files

If anything doesn’t align with your order, we will put the job on hold and contact you immediately to resolve the issue.

Step 2: Pre-Press Verification

Once your order passes the initial review, it moves to pre-press, where our team prepares it for production. This involves:

  • ✔ Converting your artwork into the correct format for printing
  • ✔ Assigning a unique tracking code to monitor progress
  • ✔ A final quality check to ensure no errors have been missed

If we detect any potential issues, we will contact you before printing to make the necessary adjustments.

Step 3: Printing & Tracking

Your design is then printed alongside similar jobs using the same material. Each order is given a unique identification code that allows us to track it throughout the factory. This code helps ensure that:

  • ✔ The correct material is used
  • ✔ The correct quantity is produced
  • ✔ The finishing specifications match your order

Your product is then sent through our advanced print presses for production.

Step 4: Packing & Final Inspection

Once production is complete, your order moves to our packing department, where:

  • ✔ The order is double-checked against the original request
  • ✔ Items are wrapped securely for protection
  • ✔ Packages are labeled and prepared for shipping
