Direct Colour Printing is here! With our continued investment in new cutting edge digital printing innovations, we have the in-house capabilities to print onto just about any material including hard-to-print materials such as metals & glass.

This new UV Ink bonding printing technique is amazing! Our team at Inscribe have been designing and printing some incredible sample works from the direct colour printing machine. We have successfully printed on stainless steel, which is very difficult to print on as it has natural abilities to resist bonding.

We can also produce textured 3D printing, introducing the future of feel & touch in a printed image object, bringing the print closer to life objects. Another innovation is our ability to produce Braille letters. Images and Braille dot points are now as simple as click and print. We are applying this to just about any of our wayfinding sign systems.

Many other new features with direct printing are emerging. For a glimpse into the future of printing, contact us for a free sample pack. We are taking orders now!!

How durable is the print/ink ?

Depending on what material we print on you can get some variance in results but in a NUT shell very durable. Our lab tests have provided enough data to pass all basic and even extreme cases of touchier.That said the print is resistant to almost all nasty chemicals like acetone, hydraulic fluid, 100% Alcohol, paint thinners and an assortment of chemical fuels. The print is also scratch resistant to normal wear and tear and seems to retain colour vibrancy. It’s even fire resistant yes! a naked flame for a period of over 30 seconds did not do much to the print. The test have proven it takes a bit of effort to remove the print. As this is a new formulated technology a free samples on request are available for your own quality assurance and testing.
