Think green with new Decal PVC Free media

Wide Format Solutions

Amari Digital Printing Technologies has announced the immediate availability of the Decal PVC Free range of substrates, offering printers the opportunity to add a host of environmentally friendly qualities to their graphics output.

Comprising two vinyl options and one laminate, the new range is free from heavy metals, phthalates, plasticisers and isocyanate containing compounds, but offers the same feel, appearance and quality of conventional PVC.

However, unlike PVC materials, the Decal PVC Free products are made with water based adhesives, and are therefore free of volatile organic compounds. Not only do they reduce the ecological footprint and protect human beings, they also maintain all the properties that generate decal effectiveness.

Decal PVC Free P PE 65 UVP is a new vinyl available in Matte White and Gloss White options. Supplied in rolls measuring 1370 mm x 50 metres, it offers outdoor durability of up to four years – opening up all sorts of application opportunities.

The second vinyl comes in the form of Decal PVC Free P PE 65 UVP Gloss Clear. Also available in rolls measuring 1370 mm x 50 metres, it can be applied on smooth, flat and slightly curved surfaces and has an outdoor durability of up to four years.

Finally, the new range features Decal PVC Free P HT 65 UVP Gloss Laminate, which, also supplied in rolls measuring 1370 mm x 50 metres, has an outdoor durability of up to four years and can be printed with water based, solvent, eco solvent, UV-LED and latex ink technologies.

All the new products comply with the European regulation REACH, which controls the production and use of chemical substances and minimises their impact on human health and the environment.
