Focus on Wide Format Printing THEMAGICTOUCH
Taking the sign industry to the next level T
heMagicTouch in the UK, under its DyeSubMagic sublimation brand, confirms the high level of interest shown in the new Duraluxe HD metal at Sign & Digital UK held at the NEC, Birmingham.
This unique powder coated aluminium sheet offers certified UV resistance
together with anti-graffiti properties delivering innovation for full colour outdoor signage as never seen before. Traditionally, full colour sublimation transfer decoration of aluminium panels have not been suitable or acceptable for outdoor use due to poor durability against the effects of UV, graffiti and weathering.
The blank gloss sheets are 1.2mm thick and printed with sublimation ink transfers applied with a suitable professional transfer heat press. The finished product comes with a certified minimum five-year guarantee for use outdoors.

The Duraluxe sheets are available in various sizes up to 2.4m including an oval size specifically produced for the growing photo memorial market. The unique patented double powder coating
process also enables the panels to be trimmed and shaped easily avoiding any flaking or sharp edges. The process is compatible with most recognised sublimation ink brands including Sawgrass, Jtec, Kiian, Sensient, STS and Epson. Duraluxe takes aluminium sublimation panels for the sign industry to the next level with high-definition colours designed to withstand years of exposure to sunlight and severe weather. Only Duraluxe combines the scratch-resistance and durability of powder coating with the depth and colour vibrancy of multi-layer imaging. The company confirm the current range of Sawgrass SG400 (A4), SG800 (A3) and VJ628 (24in) are considered the best value and consistent image quality for transfer production available.
