Panel overlays are a critical element to the design aesthetic, long-lasting durability, and function of your product. Implementing single or multi-colored, sub-surface screen-printed panel overlays into your product design eliminates the need for screen-printing directly onto product surfaces allowing you versatility and efficiencies in the production process. In addition, using adhesives specifically designed for powder-coated surfaces, ensures that the panel overlay will last the life of the product.

Our engineers work with our customers to decide the appropriate features for the proposed application. Our customers can implement tactile/non-tactile options, or they can incorporate embossed or de-bossed domes, rims, and graphics. Our close tolerance screen- printing and manufacturing capabilities allow for intricate design and graphic implementation.

Engineering and Production Capabilities

• Integrated EMI/RFI shielding, membrane switches or optical fiber backlighting
• Precise, complex die-cutting
• High tolerance CNC laser prototyping
• Tactile or non-tactile keypads
• Clear, tinted or dead front windows
• Selective adhesive, UV textures, and hard coats

Our experts will work with you to design products that are eye-catching, cost-effective, and will withstand the tests posed by varying applications and conditions. This includes the requirements for UL, CSA, CE and other agency standards. We ensure that the material, whether vinyl, polyester, polycarbonate, or aluminum, will stand up to the environment in which the panel is placed. We expect our products to be exposed to harsh conditions, such as extreme temperatures, chemicals, moisture, ultra-violet rays, and choose materials accordingly. The materials can be transformed using a multitude of finishes to achieve the look and function you desire. In addition, working prototypes can be produced quickly and in a cost-effective manner using our laser cutting and digital capabilities.
