Alupanel A-Lite
The flat, smooth, digital surface with vastly improved ink adhesion helps to display printed colours with increased brightness and intensity.
We are thrilled to be awarded the status of an official Alupanel® Product Partner. It’s a material which we truly use in high volume, on very large projects, and it’s simply not let us down. Our clients quite rightly demand a high-quality service from us, and meeting those expectations really starts with the base material....
Full Details
Alupanel A-Lite is our new digital panel which has the same excellent specification as the whole Alupanel® range.
Made using the highest grade materials, A-Lite offers superb rigidity and impact resistance together with a smooth, flat surface. The superior Polyethylene core, specially developed paint system and unique easy-peel protective film combine with a 0.20mm alloy skin to provide a panel of outstanding quality.
Available in matt/matt or gloss/matt, both sides of the panel have a finish that has been developed specifically for digital and screen printing. This helps display colours with increased brightness and intensity with the added benefit of greater durability. The high quality film provides excellent protection and is designed to remove smoothly and easily, leaving no residue on the panel.
