Operating from a strategic position within the Porto de A Coruña logistics zone, UVPRINTONE offers a distinct advantage for local businesses: same-day technical consultation and material testing without cross-border shipping delays. Our team understands the specific challenges of Galicia’s industrial base, including the need for corrosion-resistant prints on stainless steel components for the shipbuilding supply chain and UV-stable graphics on polycarbonate panels for outdoor telecommunications enclosures. We provide free on-site sample evaluation using your exact substrates, verifying ink adhesion under high-humidity conditions (85% RH at 40°C) before production begins. This localized service eliminates the risk of material incompatibility that often occurs with generic online printers. Additionally, our direct communication channel with the factory in Spain allows for rapid adjustments to ink viscosity or print profiles, ensuring your project meets both aesthetic and functional requirements. For businesses in A Coruña’s industrial estates—from Polígono de la Grela to Polígono de Sabón—we offer flexible pickup and delivery schedules, reducing your logistics overhead.
UVPRINTONE covers every production need in A Coruña with three core UV printing modalities, each optimized for specific material geometries and volumes. Our flatbed UV printing system processes rigid sheets up to 2.5m x 1.3m with a thickness of 50mm, ideal for acrylic signage, PVC display boards, and aluminum composite panels. For continuous roll stock, the roll-to-roll UV printing service handles flexible media up to 1.8m wide, including adhesive vinyls, PET films, and banner materials, with automatic tension control to prevent distortion. Complex three-dimensional items—such as cylindrical electronic housings, promotional pens, or automotive interior trim—are efficiently decorated via our curved UV printing technology, which uses a rotating fixture to apply uniform ink coverage. All services include white ink underbase printing for transparent substrates, varnish coating for enhanced durability, and spot UV effects for tactile branding. We also provide pre-press color proofing using a calibrated Epson system, ensuring your Pantone matches are verified prior to the final production run.
Below is a technical reference table for materials commonly processed in A Coruña, with specific application notes for local industry conditions. All specifications are based on our in-house testing under Galician climate parameters.
| Material | Thickness Range | Ink Adhesion (ASTM D3359) | Typical Application in A Coruña | Outdoor Durability (Unlaminated) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| PET Film | 50–500 µm | 5B | Electronic insulator labels, membrane switch overlays for marine electronics | 2 years (UV-resistant ink) |
| PVC Film | 80–800 µm | 5B | Floor graphics for retail stores, vehicle wrap decals for fishing fleet | 3 years (with laminate) |
| Acrylic Board | 2–25 mm | 5B | Point-of-purchase displays, architectural signage for office lobbies | 5 years (direct print) |
| Aluminum / Steel | 0.5–5 mm | 5B | Control panel overlays, nameplates for industrial machinery | 5+ years (with anti-corrosion primer) |
| Glass / Ceramic | 3–19 mm | 4B | Decorative partitions, shower screen branding for hospitality | Indoor permanent |
| Wood (MDF/Plywood) | 3–25 mm | 4B | Furniture inlays, retail display stands | 2 years (interior use) |
Our UV printing systems incorporate three technical pillars essential for A Coruña’s demanding applications. First, the dual-curing LED array operates at 395 nm and 365 nm wavelengths, enabling deep curing on opaque substrates like black acrylic and ensuring complete polymerization on thick ink layers up to 10 picoliters per drop. This yields a scratch resistance of 4H (ASTM D3363) and a Taber abrasion resistance of less than 50 mg weight loss per 1000 cycles (CS-17 wheel, 500 g load). Second, our variable dot grayscale printhead technology achieves 6-level grayscale modulation, producing smooth tonal transitions in photographic images without visible banding—critical for high-end advertising displays in A Coruña’s shopping centers. Third, the closed-loop ink circulation system maintains consistent viscosity across temperature fluctuations (15–35°C), preventing nozzle clogging during long production runs. For outdoor applications, we recommend our UV-resistant ink set that retains 90% of gloss after 1000 hours of QUV testing (ASTM G154, cycle 1), which simulates 2 years of exposure to Galicia’s UV radiation and salt spray. Color accuracy is maintained within ΔE ≤ 2.0 across the entire production run, verified by an integrated spectrophotometer.
UVPRINTONE tailors its UV printing solutions to three dominant industrial verticals in A Coruña. In the automotive and electronics component sector, we print high-contrast barcodes, serial numbers, and circuit diagrams directly onto engineering plastics such as ABS and polycarbonate, withstanding soldering temperatures up to 260°C for 10 seconds. For the building and construction industry, we offer large-format printing on tempered glass panels and ceramic tiles, using ceramic-infused UV inks that achieve a coefficient of friction of 0.6 for slip-resistant floor graphics. In the advertising and retail sector, we produce backlit films for lightboxes with a transparency of 92% and a diffusion uniformity of 85%, ensuring even illumination across the entire panel. We also support the marine and offshore segment by printing on stainless steel nameplates with a salt spray resistance exceeding 500 hours (ASTM B117), critical for equipment used in the Port of A Coruña.
UVPRINTONE provides a comprehensive service guarantee for all orders placed from A Coruña. Every job is covered by our 100% satisfaction quality check, which includes a visual inspection under 6000K daylight simulation, a cross-hatch adhesion test on a sample area, and color measurement against the approved proof. Should any defect be detected, we reprint the entire batch at no cost within 24 hours. Our standard production lead time for orders under 50 m² is 3 business days, with an express 48-hour service available for an additional 15% fee. We offer free local delivery within the A Coruña metropolitan area for orders exceeding €300, and we can arrange scheduled pickups at your facility. All printed materials come with a written warranty covering delamination, fading, and cracking for a period of 2 years for indoor applications and 1 year for outdoor applications, provided our recommended lamination and installation guidelines are followed.
