Here are five inspiring ways to use digital UV printing technology to a fresh look to your home, office, or business environment.
- Wallpapers and blinds
Wallpaper is actually the most obvious use of digital printing in interior decoration. If we look at the past, the appearance of wallpaper has been very tacky and old-fashioned, but thanks to the new modern designs and digital on-demand printing have changed this. As a result, wallpapers and blinds are now considered as an integral part of home decor. Nowadays, suppliers can provide wallpapers of almost any design according to their own designs or they can also customize or personalize according to the customer requirements. There is no limitation of color, design, fabric, etc. all this is completely possible due to digital UV printing.
- Wall Decals
While wallpapers completely cover the room or walls, decals, on the other hand, are useful in adding custom graphics to the walls, sometimes adding small unique decals gives more attraction than applying the wallpaper to the entire wall. Wall decals are a great way to customize the room especially if you are looking to give a special theme to a room, for instant if you want to design a kid’s room, you can use decals of cartoon characters and give it a unique look. Wall decals are simple and can be easily applied which saves a lot of time and required minimum effort.
3. Glass
UV digital printing has made it possible to print on unlimited applications and glass is one of them. An added advantage of digital UV technology is that the printed design stays for years that means it is scratch-resistant, waterproof, and weather resist also. This application is very useful in interior decoration as the designers can become more creative. For example, glass panels can be used to add an artistic or contemporary feel to architecture and interiors. You can use glass prints to completely transform bathrooms, conference rooms, offices, hotel lobbies, and walls. Glass can add that extra touch to the interior if used in a creative way.
- Tiles
With UV printing not only glass but you can also print directly on ceramic tiles. Who likes to see plain white tiles anywhere in their home, office, kitchen, pool, etc.? With the direct printing capability of UV flatbed printers, you can open a new world of opportunities. Print-on-demand allows designs to be more creative as they can print any design they want and brings new interior decorating potential. Also, there is another benefit if the place where you have bought original tiles ran out of the specific design. Digital printing technology can be used to reproduce small batches as required.
5. Wood
We have started with wallpapers and blinds which are the most used decorative application created using the digital UV printing in interior decoration and we are ending with the most exciting one: wood. While wallpapers and blinds are the most obvious decorative applications that you will see anywhere but wood is something that is not that common, mainly because it gives a different mood and look in the home or business environment. Like any other flat surface, UV printing can also print directly on the wood. This can be done on small wooden boards, decorative items, or large pre-manufactured plywood or veneers. Printing directly on the wooden doors is also possible with the large format UV flatbed printers. This gives restaurants, cafes or hotels new options to incorporate unique printed wood elements into their interior design. Without digital printing technology, this would be virtually impossible due to the manual labor required.
