Narrow Web

If your organization utilizes narrow web label (NWL) printing, you need high-quality inks and coatings to ensure superior visual appeal and durability. At Magnum Inks & Coatings, we offer a comprehensive assortment of narrow web printing inks and coatings that you can rely on to achieve the sleek and stunning results you desire. We offer NWL water-based and ultraviolet (UV) inks optimized for diverse applications.

What Is Narrow Web Label Printing?

Narrow web label printing is a printing process that allows companies to focus on small print runs instead of printing high label volumes at rapid speeds. Narrow web printing is a rotary process with multiple in-line converting methods and includes any web 16 inches wide or less.

In wide web flexo printing, companies must order high volumes of labels to justify the printing run. Narrow web printing relieves businesses of this scaling challenge by accepting orders no matter how little a company needs to be printed, making it ideal for smaller companies with less exhaustive printing needs.
