In mold decoration (IMD)
Walico's IMD technology is processed first by printing on a film, thermo-forming the film, then mounting the formed film on the injection mold cavity. Resin will then be injected and molded on the back of the film, therefore combined with the ink layer.
The characteristics of IMD include:
-- Scratch resistant and long service life
-- Graphic clarity
-- Dust and moisture resistant
-- Dimensions design flexibility
Vacuum forming
Combining its expertise in the printing and molding technology, Walico is capable of printing on flat films and then transforming the films to 3D shape by vacuum forming. The end product looks professional, and has a high price-performance ratio. This technology is great for making display products for a vending machine or point-of-purchase (POP), and it is excellent for gift or advertising products.
