UV Printing Services in Toronto With Unmatched Colour Consistency
Tower Litho runs UV printing services on a Heidelberg XL 106 UV
Press, the third of its kind ever installed in Canada. Because the
press checks and adjusts colour balance every 16 sheets, the first
sheet off a run and the thousandth sheet off the same run look
identical — a level of consistency that standard offset printing
can't match.
What UV Printing Is and Why It Holds Up Better
UV printing cures ink instantly under ultraviolet light instead of
letting it air-dry the way standard offset ink does. That instant
cure produces sharper colour, faster turnaround, and a finish that
resists scuffing and fading noticeably better than conventional
printing — which matters for anything that gets handled a lot before
it reaches the end customer, from packaging to point-of-sale
displays.
Substrates We UV Print On
Paper Stock
Standard and premium paper stocks for marketing materials, packaging
inserts, and commercial print runs.
Synthetic Materials
Synthetic substrates for applications that need extra durability or
weather resistance.
Board and Rigid Substrates
Board and rigid stock commonly used for packaging, signage, and
point-of-sale displays.
Experience Behind the Press
Our pressmen average over 20 years of experience, which is what
turns a capable machine into a consistent result. They know how to
set up the Heidelberg XL 106 for whatever substrate you're
running, so a UV print job comes out right on the first pass instead
of needing a second attempt.
FAQS
What is UV printing?
UV printing cures ink instantly using ultraviolet light instead of
letting it air-dry, producing sharper colour, faster turnaround, and
a more scuff-resistant finish than standard offset printing.
What substrates can you UV print on?
We UV print on paper, synthetic stock, and board substrates, among
others, depending on your project's requirements.
Is UV printing more durable than standard offset
printing?
Yes. Because the ink cures instantly under UV light rather than
absorbing into the material, UV prints typically resist scuffing and
fading better than standard offset.
How many UV presses like this exist in Canada?
Our Heidelberg XL 106 UV Press was the third of its kind ever
installed in Canada, which gives us in-press colour control most
commercial printers don't have.
