Unlike other materials, Print Armor aluminum panels do not crack, peel, and are exceptionally resistant to fading over the years.
Print Armor technology completely covers the surface of aluminum panels with a thermoplastic protective layer. This layer is resistant to scratches, graffiti, and UV fading.
The 2nd generation offers increased scratch resistance and allows for printing on three-dimensional surfaces.
For example, for interpretive panels, this means an image printed right onto the sides of the panel, for an exceptional finish.
Durable: 10-year warranty against excessive fading due to UV rays.
Anti-graffiti: The panel can be easily cleaned in the event of vandalism.
Satin finish: In addition to adding an aesthetic touch, it also limits unwanted reflections.
For all types of pedestrian signs (non-reflective) such as information signs, interpretive signs, directional signs, and custom signs.
Over the past twenty years, many of our projects have been exposed long-term and have shown excellent resistance to aging and minimal discoloration.
Print Armor Gen2 technology is designed with a sustainable approach. It is made from a 100% recyclable material, which helps reduce its environmental impact at the end of its life.
In addition, its high durability and resistance to weathering, impacts, and UV significantly extend its lifespan, thus limiting frequent replacement and waste production.
