Print into metal technology from GSM adds colour
At this year’s Southern Manufacturing show, GSM Graphic Arts will be showing examples of digitally printed anodised aluminium nameplates and control panels produced using its specialist ‘Print into Metal’ label technology. This process enables multi-coloured images to be printed into the pre-anodised surface of the aluminium which is then sealed, to provide a hard-wearing and solvent-resistant finish.
As the inks are digitally printed, the company is able to reproduce photographic quality images and detail, such as sequential numbering, barcodes and QR codes as well as multi-colour control panels and fascias. The digital printing technology provides a durable finish that has been tested for a minimum of five years’ UV durability, making it suitable for both exterior and interior applications.
Anodised aluminium is just one of the range of bespoke labelling processes offered. There is also screen and digital printing onto plastics, chemically etched stainless steel brass and laser marking.
The manufacturer of industrial labels, nameplates and graphic overlays works with a wide range of plastic and metal substrates and finishes including vinyl, polyester, polycarbonate, aluminium, stainless steel and brass.
