A range of Sheetfed and Web Offset duct varnishes for many applications.


Aquacoat
Aquacoat
Aquacoat waterbased coatings produced by GSB Chemical Co. Pty. Ltd. are fast drying protective sealers for application over suitable oil based inks.

They can be formulated to produce high gloss levels, through satin finishes to matt finishes. Dependant on end user requirements. The Aquacoat series exhibit very low taint and odour characteristics which make them eminently suitable for the food packaging industry when applied over appropriate low odour inks.

The very fast drying property of emulsion coatings enables rapid handling of varnishes prints to be achieved. The use of spray powder may be eliminated and when used in conjunction with a hot air knife or warm air blower, high stacks of set off-free sheets can be obtained because these coatings do not contain any hydrocarbon solvents and no emissions which are unfriendly to the environment are released into the atmosphere.
