Businesses are regularly faced with the problem of having to print metal signs. Whether to comply with hazard warning and labeling regulations, to post operational notices on assembly lines, or to provide manufacturer’s information and specifications on machinery, there are innumerable requirements for metal signage.

If one hires a signmaking company to print the signs, the first option will generally be screen printing. Engraving or laser etching are other possibilities. All are expensive processes that generally are financially worthwhile only at high volumes. Often, however, a business needs just one or two of a particular sign, or perhaps a series of similar signs each with slightly different text or graphics. The result is a very high cost per unit.

For more than a decade, PrintoLUX has been developing a new process for printing plastic and metal signs. Two years ago, PrintoLUX rolled out its complete signmaking and labeling solution. The basis of the system for printing plastic and metal signs customized to the requirements of your particular business are printer hardware and software components, together with certified materials and a special ink that offers outstanding print quality and durability.

The PrintoLUX distribution network currently covers several European countries, but plans are under way to expand it internationally. Patent protection has been applied for. Users anywhere in the world will now be able to use this “Made in Germany” technology to design and print their own high-quality plastic and metal signage, easily and affordably. This system will quickly pay for itself when used on a regular basis.

PrintoLUX saw a need for innovation, and met that challenge. With the PrintoLUX system, business everywhere can now print their own metal signs on site - when they need them, in the quantities they need, and at a price they can afford.
