At ScanCom, we are proud to announce a significant milestone in our ongoing commitment to setting new standards in the outdoor furniture industry. With the successful implementation of our DuraBoard® Premium production line and the introduction of advanced Digital Printing capabilities, we are excited to unveil our latest innovation: high-quality digital printing on aluminium surfaces. This breakthrough not only enhances our production capabilities but also opens up a realm of design possibilities, reinforcing our drive to be industry leaders.
Unmatched Quality and Productivity with Digital Printing
The transition from thermal transfer printing to digital printing technology marks a pivotal shift in our production processes for patterned aluminium. Unlike the traditional paper transfer method, digital printing provides several competitive advantages:
- Higher Productivity: Digital printing significantly speeds up the production process, allowing us to meet growing market demands efficiently.
- Superior Quality: The precision of digital printing ensures consistently high-quality outputs, with intricate patterns and vibrant colours that stand out.
- Enhanced UV Resistance: Our digitally printed aluminium products boast superior UV resistance, ensuring longevity and durability even in the harshest outdoor conditions.
This technological advancement is a testament to our dedication Operational Excellence and to our continuous improvement and innovation, enabling us to deliver products that exceed industry standards.
A Result of Collaboration and Expertise
In mid-May, we successfully ran our first zero series for the first pattern on aluminium, a significant achievement made possible through the hard work and collaboration of our R&D, Product Management, and Operations teams. This pattern is just the beginning of our journey into the endless possibilities that digital printing on aluminium offers.
The testing of ScanCom’s first pattern exemplifies our commitment to customization and quality. Every aspect of the design process has been meticulously refined to ensure that the final product not only looks stunning but also performs exceptionally well. As we move into mass production in June, we are excited to showcase the potential of this innovative technology.
Expanding Horizons with Customization and Durability
One of the most exciting aspects of our new digital printing capability is the ability to imprint countless patterns on our products with just a printing file. This flexibility allows us to offer a wide range of design options without compromising on durability and functionality. Whether it's a sleek modern look or a rustic natural finish, the possibilities are virtually limitless.
Currently, we are in the process of developing the first prototypes for various other patterns on aluminium, paving the way for even more unique and eye-catching designs. This innovation not only differentiates ScanCom in the competitive market but also expands the choices available to our customers, ensuring that there is something for every taste and preference.
A Promising Future of Innovation and Responsibility
At ScanCom, we are dedicated to creating innovative and responsible products that meet the evolving needs of our customers. The introduction of digital printing on aluminium is a promising step forward, offering new avenues for development and improvement. As we continue to explore this technology, we are excited about the potential for future unique launches that sets us apart in the industry.
