Many common materials used in the Australian building products market have problems and limitations. For example, people love the natural beauty of timber but find unacceptable the poor durability and high maintenance of timber.
More durable materials such as aluminium and steel have in the past, only been available in plain powder coated colours, and finishes such as anodising have a cold, sterile appearance.
An ideal building material is one which has all of the beauty of natural materials such as timber and stone, and is combined with all of the advantages of strength and durability of aluminium or steel.
Decorative Imaging Pty Limited have installed the very latest European Photo-Imaging technology in their new plant near Mittagong in NSW.
Photo Imaging is a patented heat transfer process that is based on the physical reaction between special inks and a powder coated substrate.
At the correct temperature and pressure, the pigment inks transfer from a paper or film and are absorbed into the powder coating.
Because the images are first printed onto a paper or film, the photographic reproduction of any design or pattern is now possible with astonishing accuracy.
