Engineering Coated Solutions: General Data’s Coated Products Capabilities

Posted On
Business Unit

For more than a decade, General Data’s Coated Products Division has specialized in the development and production of engineered coated solutions. From wide-format UV acrylic laminates to digitally printable media and advanced toll coating services, our focus has always been the same: delivering reliable, high-performance coated products designed around real-world applications.

By combining experienced engineering support with flexible coating technologies, General Data helps customers solve both straightforward and complex coating challenges—without compromising quality, performance, or turnaround time.

GenKote UV acrylic laminates are designed for durability, consistency, and ease of processing. Produced on two wide-format coaters up to 61 inches, these high-performance constructions deliver excellent adhesion and peel strength across a wide range of environments. 

Permanent UV acrylic adhesives provide long-term durability when exposed to moisture, sunlight, temperature extremes, and chemicals. For applications requiring clean removal, removable UV acrylic options offer dependable performance without residue. GenKote constructions are optically clear, non-blushing, heat resistant, and approved for direct skin contact. They are also REACH, RoHS, and Prop 65 compliant—offering a more environmentally responsible alternative to solvent-based adhesives with comparable performance.

Jet-Kote digitally printable media supports today’s growing demand for short-run, high-quality digital printing. These inkjet print receptive paper and film products are compatible with most aqueous pigment and dye-based inkjet inks and are available in a range of surface finishes.

Jet-Kote materials are engineered with high-performance facestocks and adhesives and include BS5609-certified solutions for demanding labeling applications. In addition to aqueous inkjet, Jet-Kote coatings support laser, UV inkjet, latex, eco-solvent, solvent, and HP Indigo platforms—providing converters with flexibility across multiple print technologies.

General Data’s toll coating and processing services are built around customization and collaboration. From early-stage product development and R&D engineering through production and finishing, our team works closely with customers at every step.

Capabilities include wide web UV acrylic adhesive coating, UV and aqueous topcoating up to 61 inches, and multiple coating methods such as direct and reverse gravure, flexography, and Mayer rod. Additional services include overlamination, corona treatment, slitting, lab services, and wide web flexo printing. This integrated approach allows General Data to deliver press-ready materials tailored to specific performance and production requirements.
