Allure direct-print metal is the ideal solution for extremely high-quality metal prints. Traditionally the dye sublimation process has been used to attain a sellable metal print.
There are a number of notable benefits that you gain by being able to print directly to metal:
- Use the highest quality OEM pigmented inks, instead of dye inks traditionally used in the sublimation process. This will greatly improve print permanence and lightfastness.
- Highest quality inkjet coating developed by Breathing Color. Get the fantastic print quality, dmax, color density, and resolution you’ve come to expect from other Breathing Color products.
- Use a single product for gloss, satin, and matte metal prints. You will customize your finish using the laminate film, so you can reduce your inventory costs and free up storage space.
- No need for a special printer. Use the same aqueous inkjet printers you are already using for canvas and paper printing.
- No heat press. Large heat presses can cost you $10,000-$20,000+, not to mention the training required on top.
- Skipping the dye sublimation transfer process and printing direct to the metal allows for a higher resolution end product. Think fine art and photo paper prints.
