UV printing is available for metal artwork that is not well represented by separated enamel fields. It can reproduce fine graphic detail and tonal changes without requiring raised metal borders between every part of the printed image.
This makes UV printing a process to review for multi-tone logos, complex illustrations and graphics that contain visual transitions. It is different from enamel because the image is printed onto the surface rather than placed into defined metal cells.
UV printing and screen printing should not be treated as interchangeable labels. Screen printing is generally considered for clearly defined printed elements, while UV printing can be reviewed for finer or more varied graphic content. Final selection depends on the source artwork, the metal surface and the required visual result. We do not assign unverified claims about print resolution, outdoor life or ink performance to either process.
