Water-Based Printing Inks, Varnishes and Adhesives
JLJ Coat provides international sales and technical support for published water-based printing inks, functional varnishes and coatings, and structure-specific laminating and transfer adhesives. Product matching starts from substrate and process, then requires actual-job review.
Seven published productsSubstrate and process firstTrial confirmation required
Printing inks
Water-based inks by printing process
Choose the ink family from the press process first, then confirm substrate, transfer, drying, color target, and downstream requirements.
Water-Based Gravure Ink
For treated-plastic-film gravure trials with application-specific matching.
Varnishes and functional coatings
Surface protection, finish, and tactile evaluation
Use the actual printed substrate and target sample to evaluate protection, appearance, coating method, drying, and handling.
Water-Based Overprint Varnish
WOP inline gloss finishing for printed paper and paperboard packaging.
A0126 Water-Based Matte Print-Receptive Varnish
A0126 for a uniform matte, subsequent-print-receptive surface on paper, treated film, pearlized film, or a verified synthetic material.
Water-Based Soft-Touch Varnish for Paper and Treated Film
24-10-33 tactile water-based varnish for sample-led soft-touch and matte-finish trials on paper, board, and treated film.
Water-based adhesives
Structure-specific lamination and paper-transfer routes
Choose L-2455 for the published metallized PET-to-paper wet-lamination route or JD Series for a qualified paper-transfer or peel-transfer structure. Both require actual-material trials.
Water-Based Laminating Adhesive for Metallized PET Film
L-2455 for trial-based wet lamination of metallized PET film to paper or paperboard.
JD Series Water-Based Transfer Adhesive for Paper
JD Series for structure-specific paper transfer lamination and peel-transfer trials.
Additional water-based varnish, coating, and adhesive grades are evaluated according to substrate, process, and supporting technical documentation. Unpublished grades are not presented as ready product pages.

Choose by substrate
Start from the material being printed, coated, or laminated
Substrate names are routing inputs. They do not mean every grade, treatment, print structure, or end use is already approved.
Paper and paperboard
Start with flexographic ink for flexo print, WOP for a transparent gloss finish, A0126 for a matte surface intended for later printing, or 24-10-33 for tactile soft touch.
Review paper and board applicationsCorrugated board
Corrugated board is one supported paper-and-board substrate for flexographic ink evaluation. It is not presented as a separate core market.
Review flexographic inkTreated plastic film
Review gravure ink for treated-film print trials or soft-touch varnish when the treated coating side and complete structure are known.
Review treated-film applicationsMetallized PET film to paperboard
Use the L-2455 route only for the verified metallized PET-to-paper or paperboard wet-lamination structure.
Review L-2455Transfer paper and verified transfer film
Use the JD Series route only after the transfer paper, PET or metallized transfer-film construction, coated or release side, and transfer process are identified.
Review JD Series transfer adhesiveSurface finishing and tactile coating
Compare WOP for transparent gloss, A0126 for a matte print-receptive surface, and model 24-10-33 for tactile soft touch.
Review A0126 matte print-receptive varnishChoose by process
Use the real production method to narrow the product family
Press, coating, transfer, drying, cooling, and downstream conditions remain part of the trial decision.
Flexographic printing
Water-based flexographic ink for paper and board routes; coating applications require the exact varnish and delivery setup.
Gravure printing
Water-based gravure ink for treated-film evaluation, with substrate side, transfer, drying, and downstream structure confirmed.
Inline coating
Review overprint varnish when the printed paper or board, underlying ink, coating delivery, and target finish are defined.
Offline coating
Model 24-10-33 can be evaluated through an offline coating route using the actual substrate and target surface sample.
Matte coating before a later print step
A0126 can be evaluated by flexographic, gravure, roller, or offline coating when the actual substrate and intended subsequent printing step are validated together.
Wet lamination
L-2455 uses roller or gravure coating for the published metallized PET film-to-paper or paperboard structure.
Paper transfer / peel transfer
JD Series is the published water-based transfer-adhesive route for qualified paper and transfer-film structures; it is not a universal transfer coating.

FAQ
Product selection questions
Should I choose flexographic ink or gravure ink first?
Start from the printing process actually used on the job. Then confirm the substrate, transfer setup, drying capacity, print structure, target color, and downstream requirement before discussing a sample.
Can one listed product be assumed to work on every substrate?
No. The listed substrate directions define where an evaluation can start. Final suitability must be checked with the actual material, printing or coating process, drying setup, target result, and trial method.
Are additional water-based coating or adhesive grades available?
Additional grades may be evaluated according to the substrate, process, and supporting technical documentation. An unpublished grade is not presented as a ready public product page or as proof of a fixed specification.
Send your substrate, process, and target result for product matching
Include the current structure, machine speed, drying setup, issue, estimated usage, and whether reference samples are available. Final suitability remains subject to document review and trial confirmation.
