Print UV 2025 is just around the corner, and Harris & Bruno is ready to dive into everything coating and embellishment. This event is the premier gathering for sheetfed UV printers, bringing together the best in print technology, techniques, and finishing solutions.
At Harris & Bruno, coating isn’t an afterthought, but it’s what makes great print even better.
From high-performance chamber/anilox coating systems to the latest in digital embellishment, we’ll be sharing how our technology helps printers achieve exceptional quality, efficiency, and profitability in their UV finishing workflows.
Precision UV Coating for Sheetfed Printing
UV coating is more than just protection. It’s a way to elevate print with stunning gloss, matte, soft-touch, and textured effects. Whether you’re producing commercial print, packaging, or specialty applications, achieving flawless, high-end results starts with having the right coating system in place. Harris & Bruno’s ExcelCoat series delivers unmatched control, efficiency, and consistency, making it easier than ever to meet customer demands while keeping production streamlined.
Our ExcelCoat ZR and ZRB chamber/anilox systems give printers the ability to precisely meter coatings for consistent results while also offering quick-change capabilities that reduce downtime between jobs. These systems are built for performance, allowing printers to scale production without sacrificing quality.
the zrx: The Next big thing in digital embellishment
The demand for high-impact print is growing, and digital embellishment is at the forefront of that transformation. More than just adding shine, embellishment creates a tactile experience that makes print more engaging and memorable. The ZRX brings this concept to life by allowing printers to add raised spot gloss, textured effects, foil embellishments, and even personalized details, all without the need for dies, screens, or lengthy setup times. Additionally, the ZRX exclusive xMatte application is making waves with its first-ever-seen embossed-like finish.
At Print UV, we’ll be discussing how digital embellishment is changing the game for commercial printers, giving them a way to differentiate their offerings, increase margins, and create print products that truly stand out. Whether it’s high-end direct mail, luxury packaging, or specialty marketing materials, digital embellishment provides an edge that captivates customers.
Maximizing Efficiency Through Automation
In today’s fast-paced print environment efficiency is critical. Harris & Bruno has always focused on developing solutions that help printers get more done with less effort. By automating key coating and embellishment processes, printers can reduce waste, increase uptime, and maintain high-quality output without constant manual adjustments. Our automated coating control systems ensure precise application with minimal operator intervention, while fast-change anilox technology makes job transitions seamless.
Automation in UV finishing isn’t just about speed, but also about consistency. With the right technology, printers can eliminate variability in coating application, ensuring every sheet looks just as good as the last. Whether it’s a short-run specialty project or a high-volume production job, automation allows printers to maintain the highest quality standards while optimizing efficiency.
A Nod to High-Speed Web Coating: The ZRW

Designed for inline or nearline UV and aqueous coating, the ZRW delivers flawless results at speeds of up to 1000 feet per minute (300 meters per minute). Its robust chamber/anilox system ensures precise coating application at high speeds, making it an ideal choice for web printers looking to add efficiency and consistency to their finishing process.
For printers working across both sheetfed and web production, Harris & Bruno offers a complete range of coating solutions to meet diverse production needs. Whether it’s a fully automated sheetfed coating system or a high-performance web coater, our technology is designed to help printers achieve the best possible results, no matter the application.
