Coating 3D

Hoenle’s UV coating solutions deliver maximum efficiency, design flexibility for complex geometries and durable surfaces with outstanding resistance.

3D coating applies a UV-curable layer to three-dimensional objects, combining decorative appeal with functional benefits. Unlike digital media, which cannot engage the sense of touch, coating creates tangible surfaces that trigger emotions and enhance the perceived value of a product. With advanced UV and LED-UV technologies, highly durable coatings are achieved that meet the strictest industrial standards.

A key advantage of 3D coating is the outstanding durability of the surfaces. Thanks to the high degree of cross-linking during UV curing, they are extremely scratch-resistant, chemically robust, and long-lasting. Various processes – including dip coating, flow coating, spraying, doctor blade coating, and roller coating – ensure even and precise application, even on complex geometries. The result: resilient products that perfectly combine protection and aesthetics.

Applications of 3D coating cover a wide range of industries and materials: plastics, metals and aluminium, wood, and glass, as well as automotive interiors, diffusers for vehicle lighting (PC), IMD films, and metallised surfaces. This makes 3D coating the ideal solution wherever durable, premium-quality, and tactilely engaging surfaces are required.
