UV Finishes on Presentation & Enrolment Folders: Add Shine, Depth and Impact
When it comes to presentation folder printing, it’s the details that make the difference. Your folder is often the first piece of branded material a client, student or parent touches — and that first impression counts.
A simple way to elevate your folder design and make it feel premium is by using a UV finish. Whether it’s for enrolment packs, corporate proposals, or marketing presentations, UV coating adds polish, texture and a professional edge that stands out.
What Is a UV Finish?
A UV finish (short for ultraviolet coating) is a clear, shiny or matte layer applied to your printed design. It’s cured under ultraviolet light, instantly sealing the surface and creating a striking visual contrast between coated and uncoated areas.
The main form of UV finish is often referred to as a Spot UV finish.

Spot UV: Applied only to specific parts of your design — like your logo, text or a background pattern — for eye-catching contrast.
Why Use UV Finishes on Presentation or Enrolment Folders?
Adding a UV finish transforms a standard folder into a professional, premium marketing tool. Here’s why local Geelong businesses, schools and organisations love the effect:
-
Creates a high-end impression – Perfect for enrolment folders, proposals and branded presentations.
-
Draws attention to key elements – Spot UV highlights your logo, tagline or images beautifully.
-
Adds texture and depth – The tactile finish invites people to touch and engage.
-
Improves durability – UV coating helps protect against scuffs, fingerprints and general wear.
-
Enhances colour vibrancy – Gloss UV, in particular, makes printed colours appear deeper and more vivid.
Design Tips for
Effective UV Use
To get the most out of your UV finish folder printing, consider these design tips:
-
Keep it subtle: Use UV highlights to complement, not dominate, your artwork.
-
Play with contrast: Spot UV looks best over matt laminate backgrounds.
-
Match your tone: Gloss UV suits energetic brands; matte UV feels modern and minimal.
