 What is a UV Printer?

UV printers use an ink that is cured with ultraviolet light, allowing for crisp, durable prints on a wide range of surfaces—including the dimpled texture of a golf ball. No distortion, just a clean, high-quality finish.

Why did we choose UV printing for our biodegradable golf balls?

  • Perfect for uneven surfaces, ensuring your logo looks sharp.
  • The most eco-friendly promotional printing option available.
  • UV-curable inks don’t emit harmful volatile organic compounds (VOCs).
  • Uses less ink than traditional printing methods, reducing waste.

By bringing UV printing in-house, we control the quality and environmental impact from start to finish—because sustainability is at the core of everything we do!

How Does a UV Printer Work?

We’re pumped to have an in-house UV printer! It gives us full control over the printing process, ensuring top-quality custom golf balls while keeping things eco-friendly. We get asked all the time how it works, so let’s break it down.

1️⃣ Design & Upload – We start by uploading your custom logo or text to the UV printer.
2️⃣ Loading the Balls – The printer can handle up to 72 golf balls per print job. We load them onto the print bed, ready for action.
3️⃣ Printing Magic – The print heads spray eco-friendly UV ink with flawless precision. It’s fast—blink and you’ll miss it!
4️⃣ Instant Curing – UV LED bulbs cure the ink instantly, making the design durable and long-lasting.

UV printing is not only high quality but also environmentally responsible. UV inks are cured with light (not air), contain no harmful VOCs, and the LED bulbs are energy-efficient. This is why we chose UV printing—it’s the best option for your custom golf balls and for the planet!
