Spandex Extends Popular ImagePerfect Range of Materials
Friday 12. September 2008 - Fourteen new colours added to successful, seven-year durable ImagePerfect 5700P portfolio
Spandex, the pioneering one-stop supplier of complete and innovative solutions to the digital printing, sign-making and imaging industries worldwide, has extended its popular ImagePerfect range of signage materials by adding a selection of stunning new colours to its premium quality 5700P series. The enlarged portfolio meets the needs of customers who were looking for the ImagePerfect signage range to offer colours which were previously unavailable, but are now in demand.
The expansion of the 5700P series – a high quality, 70?, flexible, self-adhesive polymeric gloss vinyl – comprises an additional 14 colours, all of which are available from stock. As a result, the increased ImagePerfect 5700P series dramatically enhances the level of choice and flexibility for sign-makers and means that Spandex now offers 80 of the top selling colours in the EU.
The new ImagePerfect 5700P colours complement a successful range that has been designed to produce captivating results in many outdoor sign and display applications, such as vehicle liveries and container identification. As with the 66 existing products in the 5700P range, the new films are particularly suited to computer-controlled cutting equipment where better cutting and both fast and very easy weeding is achieved, thanks to a high quality, specially-engineered release liner combined with 25 years of solid manufacturing experience in this market. Furthermore, use of this durable liner ensures that the ImagePerfect 5700P range also benefits from extended product lay-flat and optimum release properties.
As a result, in addition to high product quality, users benefit from greatly improved time and cost efficiencies which contribute to enhanced workflow and delivery times, as well as to increased profit margins.
In addition, improved longevity is afforded in product applications at temperatures from -30°C up to + 90°C, thanks to premium-grade polymers which provide up to seven years of surface-wear. A strong and long-lasting bond is assured by use of a repositionable, solvent-based adhesive, while a specially-selected plasticiser formula guarantees ease-of-handling without comprising durability or versatility.
“These new additions to our popular ImagePerfect range reflect our commitment to providing our customers with the widest choice of products and brands in the market” says Roland Keller, Executive Director of Aftermarket Product Management. “Their introduction once again strengthens the opportunities available for sign-makers to create vibrant and captivating graphic arts projects that increase revenue flow, and we expect them to be well received when they are showcased at the forthcoming Viscom shows in Europe”
The new ImagePerfect 5700P products, which are available in rolls and by the metre, are supplied in widths of 61cm and 122cm, or 38cm and 76cm perforated. The 80 colour options form part of Spandexs growing ImagePerfect portfolio of sign-making and digital materials and include black, white, transparent, and black and white matt. ImagePerfect comprises an extensive collection of high-performance, wide format banners, vinyl, mesh, backlit, window films, semi-rigid specialities, overlaminates and flex materials, as well as specialist canvas and textile materials.
