Tactile UV / Raised Print

Give print a surface people want to touch.

Create controlled raised textures, patterns, lettering and surface effects that invite touch and add perceived value.

Controlled relief, from subtle to bold.

Raised UV can guide touch, create contrast and make selected details more memorable, layering physical emphasis directly onto the printed surface.

Raised textures

Subtle relief that rewards a closer touch.

Patterns

Repeating relief that adds depth across a surface.

Lettering

Type you can feel, built for logos and headlines.

Surface effects

Combined gloss and relief for a distinct finish.

Specialist examining raised UV proof under raking light

1. Define the effect

We agree which areas should be raised, how bold the relief should feel, and what the texture needs to communicate.

2. Prepare the artwork

Artwork files are built with separate texture layers so the raised areas are communicated clearly to production.

3. Select the right production route

Substrate, quantity and intended use determine the most suitable production method for the job.

Questions before you commit to raised UV.

Raised UV can be planned into artwork and adapted to many print applications, subject to material, scale and production testing.

  • What artwork files are needed for raised UV?
    Raised UV needs a separate texture layer alongside your standard artwork, marking exactly where and how strongly relief should be applied.
  • How do we choose the right raised effect?
    We review your artwork early and recommend an effect and intensity that suits the material, scale and intended handling.
  • Which applications are most suitable for tactile UV?
    Packaging, point-of-sale, art, signage, samples and decorative graphics all suit raised UV, with the right route chosen per application.
  • Can Sensory Works help test the effect before production?
    Yes, we can produce sample panels so you can see and feel the finish before committing to full production.

Thank you. We will be in touch shortly.
