PMMA

PMMA (Poly(methyl methacrylate)), better known as Plexiglas^® and Altuglas^®, is transparent and resistant. It is used in making signs, lighting strips, road signs and advertising, POS display cases, industrial components… PMMA can be screen printed, generally for window stickers (mirror printing) to add depth to the visual.

Tiflex mainly recommends the following series of solvent-based inks:

• Polycolor three ranges available: Coloriflex system (compatible with Pantone^®), OP range and quadri colours
• Selectacryl excellent lightfastness and compatible with Pantone^®
