The ID MARK Process

ID-MARK sheets are photopolymer resist coated sheets of aluminum and polyester. The resist cures when exposed to UV and rinses away with simple tap water in the unexposed areas, leaving behind spot color graphic images. Applications include signs, labels, plaques & awards, prototypes, nameplates and more. Specialty ID-MARK photo luminescent and retro-reflective substrates are available as well for use as safety and emergency signs for when the lights go out!

  1. Create artwork using any software
  2. Print film through which the ID-MARK sheet will be exposed
  3. Expose sheet to UV light in a suitable exposure device
  4. Rinse or Develop sheet with water
  5. Dry sheet and laminate, depending on the end use application
