Digital Printing

Digital Printing technology has exploded in last few years to such an extent that it will become the predominant tool in future sign making. The printing application equipment has dramatically evolved as well as the ink composition technology. We now have available UV resistant ink which will really change the content of outdoor signs. With digital printing any picture real or modified can be printed making special effects or uniqueness increasing easy.  

Currently outdoor color printing is still a bit more expensive than using vinyl for for very simple lettering and logos. This price gap between vinyl application and digital printing  is much less when more colors are used. In fact digital printing can be a less expensive option when more than 2 colors or more complex lettering or logos are used. Digital printing for many applications will have an obvious quality advantage with its photo like imaging.

The sky is the limit for indoor large format color printing. These prints can be mounted on just about any flat surface for very effective POP (point of purchase) advertising or as pictures for setting a theme in your store or office.

We manufacture digital prints for application on just about any substrate including banners, wood (MDO), plastic, acrylic, metal, and coroplast.  We laminate all prints with a clear film which helps it resist scratches, moisture and gives it more UV light protection.  The cost of a large digital print mounted on a substrate is about the same as with vinyl lettering especially if several colors are needed. Call us for consultation and pricing for your project.

To specify and order your digital prints:

Think about what you would like it to say on your sign and the size you want. Contact us by phone, fax or email to provide the information needed for customization of your sign. A fax with a sketch or picture is a very effective way to communicate ideas. Before construction of your sign is started, our professional graphic designers will be in contact with you using layouts by fax or email to verify the details of your custom sign. That way we can insure we are making just what you want. After we verify the details for sign with you, we will begin construction and then ship it to you. You will be contacted when your sign is shipped. We normally use Airborne Express for shipping. All major credit cards are accepted.
