Over the years, the process of metal decoration has improved considerably. Traditionally, the process involved forming shapes, such as cylinders for aluminum cans, out of sheets of metal that had been pre-printed with the necessary information. While the process is efficient and affordable for large runs, the main drawback is that it is unable to accommodate short runs. For ad specialty companies and manufacturers that require a short run solution that offers quality and affordability, digital heat transfers are the ideal solution.
Metal decoration using digital heat transfers
For limited runs, digital heat transfers are the perfect image transfer method that will allow you to transfer your logo or copy directly to your metal product. Using pressure, heat, and time, digital heat transfers permanently affix to your metal product and your image will be rendered beautifully in stunning color and with a photo-quality finish.
The benefits of digital heat transfers for metal decoration are many and include:
- 1. Affordable short runs. For on-demand metal decoration, digital heat transfer is the only option.
- Variable data. If you’d like to include unique identifiers into your label, digital heat transfers can make it happen. In fact, every image in your run can be made unique with information such as batch numbers, QR codes, copy, or barcodes.
- Photo-quality finish. All digital heat transfers are printed in four colors plus white, rendering a gorgeous, high-quality image that will make your logo stand out.
- Dry process. Because digital heat transfers utilize a dry process, they require no cure times and your product will be ready for shipment as soon as the label has been applied.
