The challenge

The surface challenge

Printing on a low-surface-energy plastic means risking ink that bleeds, dries poorly or rubs off at the slightest friction. The problem is not the ink — it is the surface that fails to hold it.

Plasma raises surface energy right before printing. The ink wets, grips and holds. The treatment fits directly on the line.
