Varniblue Forte Coating Plate

The Varniblue Forte 115-135 is a high-performance strippable coating plate specifically engineered for inline coating applications on sheetfed offset presses. Designed for demanding commercial print environments, it delivers exceptional coating transfer, superior durability, and reliable long-run performance with both UV and water-based varnishes.

Manufactured using advanced materials and precision engineering, Varniblue Forte features a microground rubber surface that ensures excellent transfer of UV and aqueous coatings while providing outstanding print finishing results. Whether producing gloss, matte, soft-touch, or specialty coating effects, the plate delivers smooth, consistent coverage and a premium-quality finish across a wide range of substrates. The finely finished surface also enables easy cutting, both manually and with CAD plotters, improving efficiency during plate preparation.

At the core of the plate is an engineered polymer layer developed by Chiorino, offering exceptional resistance to swelling caused by UV coatings and wash-up chemicals. This advanced construction provides clean, precise cut-outs, easy stripping, and consistent peel strength from batch to batch, helping printers achieve accurate coating application and repeatable production results.

The integrated polyester base layer delivers excellent dimensional stability, maintaining accurate register throughout long and repeated production runs. This stability helps reduce downtime, improve productivity, and ensure reliable print quality in high-volume environments.

Varniblue Forte is reusable multiple times, making it a cost-effective solution for printers seeking durability, consistency, and long-term value. When paired with the Varnicomp SR compressible underlayer, it further enhances coating uniformity and transfer quality for superior finishing performance. Available in 1.15 mm and 1.35 mm thicknesses, Varniblue Forte is the ideal choice for professional offset printers requiring dependable inline coating solutions.
