General information

Full Description
The company, located in the South of Italy, has more than twenty years’ experience in indelible digital printing.
Thanks to their production techniques, they guarantee their customers the inalterability of the products treated over time, regardless of weather conditions, U.V. rays or temperature variations. The company’s production system is based on the following steps:
1) Their ad-hoc developed software system allows each order to be tracked and ensures accurate and customized processing according to each customer's photographic requirements
2) Images are printed on transfer paper with high-strength ceramic toners. Subsequently, they are screen-printed with specific fluxes
3) Images are turned into decals, ready to be applied to ceramic, glass or steel supports.
4) Each decal is fused to the selected support, subjected to specific temperatures: 900°C for ceramic, 730°C for enameled steel, and 600°C for crystal. This step ensures the perfect fusion between the support and the decal, creating an indissoluble union. The colors penetrate the ceramic and are protected by the glaze of the support, ensuring unlimited resistance over time.
