OPTIX® DA - Digital Acrylic
Specifically designed to provide optimal adhesion of UV curing inks without adhesion promoters, OPTIX DA delivers all the benefits of continuously processed acrylic sheet in a specially formulated product for printing. Just as with OPTIX sheet, OPTIX DA provides superior strength and is available in a variety of sizes and thicknesses. OPTIX E-DA has the same high-quality direct-to-print surface on one side with the added benefit of an abrasion- and chemical-resistant coating on the other, perfect for contemporary markerboard designs and a variety of anti-graffiti applications.
Run-to-Size Capabilities
Custom colors available.
