Custom Spot UV Labels
Spot UV applies a glossy clear coating to selected areas of a label, creating contrast between the raised shiny highlight and the surrounding matte or soft-touch surface.
It is an economical way to add premium detail — glossing a logo, product name or decorative element without the cost of foil. Spot UV works on paper and film labels and combines well with lamination.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between spot UV and lamination?
Lamination covers the whole label with a protective film layer; spot UV adds a glossy raised coating to selected areas only. They are often combined — full lamination plus spot UV accents.
Does spot UV work on clear film labels?
Yes, though the visual effect differs because the substrate is transparent. We review your design to place spot UV where it will create the strongest contrast.
Is spot UV more expensive than lamination?
Spot UV adds a selective coating step, so it carries a small additional cost compared to full lamination. It remains one of the most affordable premium-finish options.
