Reverse UV Matte (Frosted) is a premium printing technique that combines matte coating with spot UV gloss to create a striking visual and tactile contrast.

Reverse UV Matte

The process works as follows:

  1. 1. The entire printed surface is first coated with a matte or frosted varnish.

  2. 2. A high-gloss UV coating is then applied only to specific areas, such as logos, patterns, or images.

  3. 3. This creates a non-reflective frosted background with shiny highlighted elements that stand out.

Because the glossy areas are applied after the matte base, it’s called “reverse UV”. When a frosted matte varnish is used as the base, the result is known as Reverse UV Frosted.

Key Features & Benefits

  • *Eye-Catching Contrast – Glossy details pop against a matte or frosted background.

  • *Premium Tactile Feel – Smooth gloss elements combined with a soft, anti-slip frosted texture.

  • *Enhanced Durability – Resistant to fingerprints, scratches, and smudges.

  • *Luxury Brand Appeal – Instantly elevates the perceived value of packaging and print materials.

  • *High-end gift boxes

  • *Cosmetic packaging

  • *Electronics and gadget boxes

  • *Luxury brochures and invitations

Conclusion

Reverse UV Matte (Frosted) is more than a finishing option – it’s a branding tool. It combines visual sophistication with a premium hand feel, making it perfect for packaging and printed materials that aim to impress.
