Catalog Brochure
What is the glossy material that is used many times on matte catalogue/brochure covers for text and logos?
Many catalogues and brochures (such as those for potential car buyers) have a matte surface, yet the letters, logos, or other small details may have a bit of a glossy surface. If you rub your hands over the matte part of the cover, they will glide, yet your fingers will slow when rubbing over the glossy letters or details. The glossy material isn't really raised, yet seems to be applied on top of the matte cover, so that you can feel there is a difference. I need to get a brochure professionally printed and I am wondering what this type of printing is called. Would anyone know about this? Thanks.
That glossy material is called "UV Coating" or "UV Coated"
They're typically used on full color (4-color) printing presses, and can be seen on glossy or matte paper stocks ranging from 80# or 100# gloss text, to 12pt, 14pt or 16pt paper.
UV Coating can be used to enhance the quality of your printed piece or used for weather-proofing, as a flood uv coated printed piece will last longer outdoors

Make Your Catalog a Winner
With any kind of advertising you always want people to take the time to look at it. The worst thing that can happen is they will just turn right around and throw it in the trash.
This can be annoying enough when you are handing them a flyer or sending them a postcard, but when it comes to something a little pricier like catalog printing it can become downright disastrous.
Here are a few tips to make sure your catalogs do not end up in the trashcan.
The most important thing to be aware of is the design and layout of your catalog. Great products are going to be what the people actually buy, but the design is what will get them to bother looking through your catalog to begin with.
No matter how good your products are it would not matter if no one is going to see them. Take the time to figure out a good, eye-catching design that will best suit your needs. Decide which products you want to emphasize the most in order to put them in the best spots to give them the most exposure.
You might want to have one product take up an entire page rather than give equal space to every product. You have control over the presentation of your catalog, so use that control to make it send the exact message you want it to.
Paying attention to colors and images is another important detail.
People want to see something that is esthetically pleasing on the eyes. The more formal and plain your catalog looks the less likely it will be that people will bother to flip through it. If they do not think they are going to see anything interesting they are not going to bother wasting their time.
Find some color schemes that work well with your products. Perhaps you want to energize them with bright red, or you want to show your products are environmentally friendly and use a lot of green. Maybe Valentine’s Day is coming up and pink will be your visual crutch.
Decide what colors will work best with your brochures to set the right mood.
A great picture will also help improve your brochures. A lot of great pictures will keep people interested, which in turn will increase the odds of them paying more attention to your products.
Work with your catalog printing company to find out exactly what they can do and what might work best for your catalogs. Go to the experts to find out the latest trends in catalogs and what other companies have had success with. A catalog printing company will have a much better idea of what you need to do than you will.
Catalog printing might not be the cheapest form of marketing but it certainly has some strong advantages in its favor. You just need to be sure that your money is being well spent, and your catalogs do not end up being a waste of time.
