METALFX®:
AN INSPIRING NEW PRINTING PROCESS!
Transcontinental Printing is proud to be a certified printer for the new and exciting MetalFX® Technology, a Universal Process and Spot Metallic Color System that allows millions of metallic colors to be printed, all by adding only the one MetalFX® base silver ink to the usual CMYK mix.

The 2006 Transcontinental Calendar was printed with the MetalFX® Technology.
|
MetalFX® works on the basis that CMYK inks are transparent, so when printed on top of specially modified silver inks (the MFX® Base silver) it will allow the silver to show through the CMYK, and thus create the illusion of unlimited metallic colors, but only with one additional metallic color.
MetalFX® is a revolutionary concept for the printing industry and was born from an idea to create dazzling print effects, while minimizing the cost implications often associated with the printing of metallic colors. The process is therefore inspiring to designers and economical for brand owners.
