CYBERFAQ

(Week 26)

metal


We have done a variety of metal based projects and have recently created some visually striking and high impact work. This has ranged from a luxury invitation for a wedding, through to a metal folder for a high end event.


Advantages

1. Can be folded or hinged
2. There are various thicknesses, types and colours available
3. Can be screen printed, etched, through etched, surface etched, embossed and dye sublimation printed
4. Can be kept plain or lacquered




Disadvantages
1. Metal is a relatively expensive material compared to others and the cost is quite high on small production runs
2. Can sometimes become scuffed or damaged in transit or if handled incorrectly

Considerations
 has a relatively quick turnaround time compared to other materials (but please enquire with us at the time of the order) . Suitable for,  folders, invitations and tins. The suitable order size,   depends highly on the type of product.
