On-site Dec-EL Screen Printing service

Why use Eltherington?

The Dec-EL plant is one of only a few rotary screen printing lines in the World that can coat onto aluminium coil. This line provides an alternative to the application of vinyl tape and is especially suitable for medium to large volumes where longevity of coating (weather resistance) is important. Products produced from this facility are for the following applications:

• Caravan, motor home and holiday home exteriors
• Roof and wall cladding.
• Display and signage.
• Commercial interior cladding.
