Correx Boards
Hi
I’ve been asked to quote for 10, 20, and 50 correx boards with full colour graphics. How would you do it;
Print vinyl and apply or screen print?
Signs are 30 inches x 24 inches.
Cheers for any suggestions.

Unless you are geared up for this sort of work i would just back out of it, or quote high and then you have a result. for the quantities you are looking at 10 would be expensive anyway you do them. but if they are tru full colour they really need to be printed directly onto the fluted in large numbers to make it viable. BTW correx and the like come in 8×4 so the optimum size is 32×24

A flat bed digital print direct to substrate would probably cost around £25m2 for the print + apprx £4.50 for an 8 x 4 board so apprx cost for 6 full colour boards would be £80 , an Inca Eagle flat bed could probably print an 8 x 4 board in about 10-15 mins once they had the artwork , similar machines are around, if your stuck for someone in your area to get a quote fromlet me know , if you shop around you might get it cheaper than that , Digital print to Vinyl would cost a similar amount but the hassle of applying it unless you had a laminator would not be worth while.

i would not have thought they would need laminated? 😛 anyone say different? 😀

I think Cammy means that you might use a laminator to apply printed vinyl to the correx nik 😉
My opinion would be to get a price for prints direct to the correx aswell – I use http://www.jkndigital.co.uk/ quite often and they should be able to sort it out easily for you.Nigel
