What is Durablack ?
DuraBlack ™ is a Co2 laser imaged aluminum used to produce,on demand, durable marking in challenging environments
DuraBlack withstands sunlight (UV radiation), abrasion, high temperatures and exposure to chemicals.
DuraBlack is made of a multi-level coating on an aluminum base, including an abrasion-resistant top layer reducing the need to apply a secondary protective topcoat.
Durablack : the only Co2 laser marking real metal specified for outdoor use
Advantages and uses of Durablack process
DuraBlack features several advantages over other laser-marking materials.
1. Durablack is easy and fast to use. It comes ready for use and requires no additional step (layer coating ...)
2. Durablack is resistant to temperature, UV, abrasion, chemicals ... to secure marking durability in harsh operating environments
3. The aluminum image on black background produces very contrasted marking for bar code and UIDs reading. Matte background reduces product reflection in combat situations.
4. The abrasion resistant top layer reduces the need to apply a protective topcoat as commonly made with laser-marking black anodized aluminum and acrylic tape.
DuraBlack is a reliable solution for long-term product labeling and monitoring.
