Type plates for Arcabo chalets, printed in the aluminium and milled to size.

Printing on metal

A type plate that has to withstand chemicals needs something different from a photo exhibition or a facade. We print on aluminium in three ways. Below you see which suits your application.

Alu-Inprint

The ink is not on the aluminium but in the wear-resistant top layer. That makes the print resistant to chemicals, graffiti and high temperatures. We mill it to shape as standard, with bevelled edges and (countersunk) holes if you wish. For type plates, labels, name badges and signs that need to last for years outdoors.

HD Metal

With sublimation, the ink is fired into the coating. That gives a deep colour and a razor-sharp image, in matt or gloss. The finest way to show a photo on metal: for exhibitions, galleries, wall decoration and indoor wayfinding.
