Skins® Rubbert gives headphones, laptops, tablets and a host of other electronic gadgets a new twist. 

Easy to start, consistent, high quality, Rubbert feel

Transforming packaging with such a soft touch rubber coating isn't difficult. You simply replace your current overprint varnish with Skins® Rubbert industrial non-slip coating.  

This Skin has a proven track record. He's easy to use with standard equipment, whether you use a flexo, gravure or offset printing press. He can be applied in thin layers and high-speed processing is possible. 

Print performance

Thanks to his high transparency and low reflectivity, color depth, text and image visibility are all enhanced. Colors can be given different gloss levels by overprinting.  

Skins® Rubbert loves being printed on multiple substrates, like PE, BOPP, Aluminum and PET. But it's on paper where Skins® Rubbert performs best. 

This rubber feel is available as a waterborne skin, making it FDA/FCC/Swiss Ordinance compliant and potentially recyclable. It can be used for all markets; food and non-food. 

Formulation

This rubbery varnish is easy to apply, stable and can be applied using conventional flexo or gravure systems. The formulation accommodates a broad range of printing techniques as well as 100% UV and non-UV jobs.
