slide 4: Evermore for Less and Less
Winning a project proposal means being able to deliver more for less. This
CEU will explore ways to bring dazzle to your projects and delight clients
by using materials that:
Offer fresh stunning
visuals at a fraction
of the cost of
materials
typically specified to
deliver the same
impact
Are more durable
and easier to care
for than
traditionally
specified materials
In most cases
installation is
quick easy and
may go on top of
existing surfaces
minimizing hassle
and mess
slide 5: Design Trends
Vibrant Color
Greater Visual
Impact
Playful Substrates
slide 6: About Fusion Imaging Digital Printing
Any high resolution image
can be formatted for the
Fusion or digital printing
process. The Fusion process
literally fuses the color or
image into the substrate
A variety of substrates can
be used depending on the
application and the
properties of the material
slide 8: Substrates - Aluminum
• Easy to clean and
install
• Satin gloss and
white coated
finishes available
• Light weight
• Resist stains and
scratching
• Sleek and
modern
slide 9: FRP
FRP panels can either
be smooth or textured
and are available in a
variety of thicknesses
and sizes. This
substrate is great for
food preparation
areas bathrooms and
other wet areas.
slide 10: Ceramic Tile
Ceramic tile can be
fused or digitally
printed with your
images or custom
design. Ceramic tile
is great for
applications such as
floors murals and
signage
slide 11: Wood
An image can be fused
or digitally printed
onto plywood or
hardboard. Our fusion
process preserves the
look and beauty of the
wood and on
hardboard it gives a
vibrant photo-realistic
image.
slide 12: Glass
Glass can be imaged
for backsplashes
tabletops doors
countertops and wall
applications. Solid
color or translucent
glass can be created
with the infusing of
color. Translucent
glass may be backlit
slide 13: Fabric
Using the fusion
process with fabric
is ideal for unique
wallcoverings
furniture wraps
upholstery artwork
and displays. Several
different weights
and weaves can be
used
slide 14: Acrylic Clear PVC Polycarbonate
These substrates
may be fused or
digitally printed for
backsplashes
tabletops door
cabinet inserts and
other interior
applications where
translucency is
desired. These
substrates can be
backlit.
