Thermoforming

Expand into value-added applications

With HP Latex R Printer series, you can give your point of sales applications an extra dimension with thermoformed prints, amazing colors, and the glossiest of whites.1 Achieve the same look across rigid and flexible campaigns using one technology and say goodbye to print and mount. Thermoformed prints are designed to resist color density loss.
 
There is increasing demand for customized and digitally printed applications. Latex Inks bring considerable advantages to printed thermoforming applications due to its flexibility and temperature resistance. It can provide thermoformed prints with rich, deep colors that don’t fade when stretched into deep-draw forms. A wide range of substrate can be used in thermoforming, and the end product can range from prototypes, point of sale material, and blister packs to industrial parts.
