As your world gets bigger, busier, bolder and more competitive at each turn, your customers are asking for more. Large window graphics. Colorful vehicle
wraps. Trade show banners that need to stand out in a crowd. How do you give them what they need and not break your bank doing it? The
answer is simple- the SEAL 65 EL.
With an affordable price tag that combines legendary SEAL performance with ease of use for new users, the 65 EL translates into a money-saving
laminator that, at the end of the day, will put more money in your pocket- and keep your customers coming back. Ideal for mounting and laminating
pressure sensitive graphics, the 65 EL comes equipped with our unique auto-grip supply shafts for easy webbing, has a manually adjusted nip to 1"
for effortless handling of most substrates and a fast 14 feet per minute production speed. Its simple controls allow new or veteran users to create
professionally finished graphics with ease. Backed by the best warranty in the industry, you won't find any other laminator on the market that fits
the bill like the 65 EL.
"The addition of the SEAL 65 EL to our laminator portfolio has allowed us to expand on the success of the 54 EL," remarks Angela Mohni,
VP Marketing, Neschen Americas. "We are excited to be able to increase our product range to provide a finishing solution to customers who
are investing in 64" print technology."
The fact is, wider and larger is the future of the industry. And the 65 EL addresses this market need perfectly in an affordable, attractive and reliable
way. It's time to make that move. And the timing, as they say, couldn't be better.
With great anticipation and fanfare, Neschen Americas introduced the SEAL® 65 Pro MD at this year's SGIA Expo. The 65 Pro MD is the most
state-of-the-art, multi-functional laminator currently available on the market. This high production machine is specifically designed to meet the needs
of the most demanding print service providers. In a nutshell, the SEAL® 65 Pro MD is the ultimate laminator for finishing professionals.
Measuring 65" wide, the 65 Pro MD uses cutting-edge technology to provide SEAL® quality and performance at a competitive price. Its new design
includes two major technological breakthroughs in laminator performance - speed of thermal encapsulation and the Easy Operator Interface™ (EOI). A
key benefit to the 65 Pro MD is that it can run thermal encapsulation with 3mil film on top and bottom at more than 15 feet per minute, nearly three
times faster than most comparable laminators in the market today. This unmatched speed, along with temperature, cooling and nip height are all
controlled through the EOI, a touch screen control panel which is mounted on a swivel pendant that moves easily from the front to the back of the
machine. Additional features include swing out auto-grip shafts, a removable front/rear image roll trough and precision pneumatic rollers.
"The SEAL® 65 Pro MD amazed every SGIA expo attendee that stopped by our booth," shares Jim Fino, Product Manager - Finishing, Neschen
Americas. "The many features and benefits built into every inch of this machine, such as the Easy Operator Interface™ and quartz infrared heated
rollers, surpass any other machine on the market. The SEAL® 65 Pro MD marries consistent, high quality graphic output with continuous, high
volume production, matching the needs of today's market."
The introduction of a new laminator also brought the introduction of a new booth design. Two interactive towers highlighted a variety of Neschen
Americas media for expo attendees to experience. Both towers were outfitted with PrintLux™ CityLight Superior, a backlit film for aqueous and latex
printers. The booth also featured SolvoPrint™ NoLite 360, which is the perfect choice for hanging display systems. Print Shield® Floor Guard® was
laminated to Nolite 360 for extra rigidity and anti-glaring, representing the perfect combination of materials for a tradeshow panel. Pure Color Fresco
AdTex™, a lightweight polyester textile with a removable and re-positionable adhesive, was featured in one tower with plenty of opportunity to handle
the media and experience its key benefits of easy installation and removal of wall graphics.
The very popular Print Shield® Anti-Graffiti could also be found, which offers protection against a wide variety of chemicals and stains. Time was very
well spent by all SGIA attendees who tested all of these products and more.
"The launch of the SEAL® 65 Pro MD, which combines 100 years of knowledge and experience in engineering and design, has been a significant
achievement this year," claims Angela Mohni, Vice President of Marketing, Neschen Americas. "Another great achievement was our overall
presence at this year's show, which was wonderfully received. Everyone's feedback was extremely positive and it's satisfying to know that our
results are nothing short of success."
Neschen Americas' family of products underscores what customers have come to expect. As customers strive to do and achieve more, so will
Neschen Americas by regularly pushing boundaries and taking its' customers feedback to heart. The SEAL® 65 Pro MD is just the latest example
of Neschen Americas continuous innovation and commitment. As always, there's more to come.
Neschen Americas is pleased to announce the latest addition to the SEAL® pressure-sensitive laminating films family - Print Shield® Base Textured
Matte.
Print Shield® Base Textured Matte is a cost effective, 3mil vinyl over-laminate specifically designed to offer outstanding protection against dirt,
moisture and abrasion. Its fine sand texture gives it a semi-matte finish that will reduce glare from direct lighting, making it an excellent choice for
brightly lit trade show graphics and roll up banner stand applications. Print Shield Base Textured Matte is flexible and works with a myriad of both
indoor and outdoor applications.
"SEAL® is excited to launch Print Shield® Base Textured Matte, which is another great example of our brand's innovation," shares Jim Fino, Product
Manager - Finishing, Neschen Americas. "We are consistently striving to deliver more benefits to our customers and Print Shield® Base Textured
Matte is another versatile product we are able to offer at a very attractive price point."
Currently available in the following sizes: 38" x 200', 51" x 200' and 54" x 200', Neschen Americas is showcasing this product so that customers can
experience it for themselves and understand how they can use it best. Print Shield Base Textured Matte pairs perfectly with Neschen SolvoPrint™ and
PrintLux™ Nolite165 6.5 mil 100% blockout polyester print media.
Sample rolls are available for customers to try the product before committing to a full size roll.
Neschen Americas extends SEAL®'s line of films by offering Print Shield® Base Textured Matte, a quality solution that effectively reduces glare from
either sunlight or overhead lighting and protects the graphic from every day handling.
Neschen Americas is thrilled for the 2012 ISA Sign Expo, which will be in Orlando, FL from March 22 – 24. A plethora of new products will be on
display to include the Neschen Americas Signage Application Kits, which were just released earlier this month. By combining Neschen brand media
with SEAL®’s finishing products, Neschen Americas has leveled the playing field making the creation of short run, customized signage profitable for
all. These kits are specifically designed for window, floor and anti-graffiti signage utilizing some of the company’s most popular products such as
gudy® window by SEAL®, Print Shield® Anti-Graffiti, Print Shield® Floor Guard and SolvoPrint™ MightyGrip Gray. The shorter roll lengths of these
products reduce overall cash outlay and inventory carrying cost of the materials. Expo attendees will be able to investigate these signage
application kits up close and personally while having a multitude of Neschen Americas experts available for questioning.
Also new for Neschen Americas are PrintLux™ Nolite 165, Nolite 370 and CityLight Superior for aqueous printers, all coming to booth #1626. At 8.5 mils
thick, CityLight Superior is a aqueous and latex printable backlit film with superior rigidity compared to thinner products currently available in the market.
This is a critical feature to avoid “sagging” when the material is displayed in a light box. The thickness of CityLight Superior also allows it to absorb the
heat used to dry latex inks producing vibrant colors. Other new products on display will be Pure Color™ Fresco AdTex™, a polyester self-adhesive textile
and SolvoPrint™ WallGrip, which is the go-to product for indoor wall graphics. Perfect for signage, retail displays, murals and trade show graphics,
SolvoPrint™ WallGrip’s specialty removable adhesive leaves no residue or wall damage.
On the finishing side, Neschen Americas is bringing the coveted SEAL® 54 EL laminator, which will be on display at booth #1522. Launched just one and
a half years ago, the industry is still marveling at the capabilities and features of the SEAL® 54 EL. For ISA expo attendees who have yet to see this high
quality, economy-priced laminator, the wait will soon be over. As a special offer, anyone who purchases a SEAL® 54 EL during the 2012 ISA Sign Expo
will receive two Neschen Americas Signage Application Kits for free.
With Neschen Americas’ key staff and training experts in attendance, on-the-booth training will be held during the expo to deliver the latest tips and tricks
that sign industry professionals can use to produce high quality graphics in less time and at a reduced cost. Neschen Americas is also participating in
ISA’s “Innovation Station,” which is new at this year’s expo, and sponsoring two education sessions featuring Mark Rugen, Training and Education
Center Manager for Neschen Americas. On Thursday, March 22, Rugen will present “Whippin’ the $#!% Out of Graffiti” showcasing the benefits and
features of Print Shield® Anti-Graffiti and on Friday, March 23 he will deliver “Removable Window Graphics: Stuck on Profit,” which is one of the most
popular advertising mediums being used by retailers today.
“Neschen Americas is particularly excited about this year’s ISA Sign Expo due to all of our new products,” shares Angela Mohni, Vice President of
Marketing, Neschen Americas. “Not only is innovation a theme at this year’s event, but it’s also one of our key drivers that consistently delivers value
to our customers each and every day.”
Neschen Americas Takes Its Laminating Boot Camp on the Road
–Neschen Americas is pleased to announce that its laminating expertise is being brought directly to customers. Previously, laminating boot camps were
limited to the Neschen Americas Training & Education Center in Elkridge, Maryland, but beginning this month that will change. Seven training seminars
have already been scheduled throughout the United States and Canada, with the first one being held on May 18 – 19 in Los Angeles, California.
Neschen Americas’ laminating boot camp is a two-day hands-on training seminar on its SEAL® and Neschen brand products. Students will be given
the opportunity to execute applications using SEAL laminators and consumables. Class sizes are limited to 12 students and the student to teacher ratio
of 4:1 allows for individual attention and ample time for questions and answers with Neschen Americas’ expert trainers and technicians. Speaking of
expert trainers, industry-renown Mark Rugen, Manager of the Neschen Americas Training & Education Center, will teach each and every laminating
boot camp ensuring quality and consistency.
“The best hands-on training for laminators and materials I have attended,” claims Rob Galloway of Charlotte, North Carolina, who made the trip to
Elkridge, Maryland last year.
A variety of SEAL laminators are used in the class, such as the 54 Base or 62 Base, the 62 Pro and the increasingly popular 54 EL, which was
launched in October 2010. Applications include, but are not limited to, single-sided cold lamination, roll-to-roll laminating, edge wrapping and
mounting. Products featured in the class include Print Shield® Base, Print Shield® Floor Guard, Print Shield® Anti-Graffiti and gudy® window
by SEAL.
“We have done multiple laminating boot camps in Maryland and they have been extremely successful,” states Mark Rugen, Manager of the Neschen
Americas Training & Education Center. “Customers have continually asked if we were coming to their area and we are excited to meet their increasing
demands. This decision is just another example of our commitment to training and education and how we bring that philosophy to the
market.”
Neschen Continues to Expand Its Digital Print Media Options for
INDISPLAY and More
Neschen® is excited to announce the addition of SolvoPrint™ Nolite 165, Nolite 360 and PP Banner 210 to its already extensive line of digital print media.
The perfect complement to Neschen’s INDISPLAY program, these new inkjet printable media feature a scratch resistant inkjet coating, which makes
images and colors pop brilliantly. Thanks to their lay flat capability, which eliminates edge curl, both SolvoPrint™ Nolite 165 and PP Banner 210 work well
with roll up and 4 screen display systems. SolvoPrint™ Nolite 360’s stiff construction with non-curling edges makes it an excellent choice for pop up
display systems.
SolvoPrint™ Nolite 165 and Nolite 360 are suitable for indoor, as well as short-term outdoor use. They are designed for solvent, eco-solvent and UV-curable
inks. Both products have a matte finish and SolvoPrint™ Nolite 165 is 6.5 mil while SolvoPrint™ Nolite 360 provides more rigidity with a thickness of 13.8
mil. SolvoPrint™ PP Banner 210, which can be used with solvent and eco-solvent inks, is intended for indoor use only with a matte finish and a thickness
of 8.3 mil.
Due to their inkjet coating, these new media options enhance color rendition better than uncoated film and are ideally suited for P-O-P displays, retail
signage and trade show graphics. In addition to SolvoPrint™ Nolite 165, Nolite 360 and PP Banner 210’s compelling features, they also offer various
benefits to end users and Print Service Providers (PSPs). The back of the SolvoPrint™ Nolite 165 and SolvoPrint™ Nolite 360 is a sleek looking silver
which provides 100% opacity, preventing shadows and image wash-out in backlit conditions allowing end users a variety of placement options with
various lighting scenarios. While not completely light blocking, SolvoPrint™ PP Banner 210’s silver back provides a high level of opacity. An
overlaminate is recommended to provide additional protection and increased rigidity extending the use of the media even more.
“Neschen is committed to bringing high quality inkjet products to market and SolvoPrint™ Nolite 165, Nolite 360 and PP Banner 210 are welcome additions to
our digital print media portfolio,” states Tiffany Guard, Product Manager of Inkjet Media, Neschen Americas. “These media products are extremely
versatile offering PSPs numerous benefits while expanding their range of creative display solutions.”

Banner 210 is available in rolls measuring 36” x 98’ and 60” x 98’. All products are available in sample rolls measuring 30” x 10’.
Neschen Americas showcased its latest and greatest product offerings at this year’s SGIA Expo, including SEAL® OptiMount®. OptiMount is the perfect face-
mounting adhesive when working with inkjet, photographic or plain paper media and bonding them to clear acrylics, plastics and glass. OptiMount is a double-
sided, pressure-sensitive, water-based adhesive with a carrier fi lm thickness of 1 mil. Its clear carrier creates a permanent bond to both graphics and substrates.
“SEAL OptiMount is specifi cally designed to cope with the demands of backlit applications,” states David Conrad, Senior Product Manager – Finishing,
Neschen Americas. “It is an economically-priced alternative to its sister product, OptiMount Ultra, delivering similar performance at a fraction of the cost.”
Currently available in the following sizes: 41” x 200’ and 51” x 200’, expo attendees had the opportunity to personally see SEAL OptiMount in action at
Booth #2647. Participants got an up close view on exactly howSEAL OptiMount works judging the performance and cost savings for themselves.

Dave Conrad, Neschen Americas Senior Product Manager. “We continue to work with our partners and the market to develop new products that help our

in-feed table; variable pressure capability; 1” nip and several other new enhancements making Booth #2647 a must-see at this year’s expo.
Staying budget friendly, expo attendees will also be exposed to SEAL’s OptiMount® adhesive, an economically-priced alternative to SEAL’s existing
high-quality, premium adhesive known as OptiMount® Ultra. OptiMount is the perfect face-mounting adhesive when working with inkjet,
photographic, electrostatic or plain paper media and bonding them to clear acrylics, plastics and glass. OptiMount is a double-sided, pressure-sensitive
water-based adhesive with a clear carrier that creates a permanent bond to both graphics and substrates. With OptiMount and OptiMount Ultra, SEAL
now offers quality solutions at various price points continually addressing customers’ needs.
As if premiering the SEAL® 54 EL isn’t enough, Neschen Americas will have its expert trainers on hand for on-the-booth training to demonstrate how to
eliminate waste and increase efficiencies in fi nishing. Neschen Americas’ laminating expert Brian Gibson, who has approximately 20 years of industry
experience, will show attendees the most effi cient way to web a laminator and how to utilize it to get smooth, flat, wrinkle-free results. Gibson is an authority
teaching print shop professionals how to ultimately create the best fi nish possible. In just 20 minutes, attendees will be ready to apply his tips and tricks on the
laminator in their own print shop saving time and money, while simultaneously increasing profits.
“The 2010 SGIA Expo is one of the premium shows in our industry and it is the perfect venue to debut our new 54 EL Laminator along with our latest product
offerings,” says Angela Mohni, Vice President of Marketing, Neschen Americas. “It is also an opportunity to showcase our industry experts and the
exceptional education and training that they provide, because today’s consumers demand more than quality products and services. Neschen Americas isn’t
just about meeting expectations and we are happy to demonstrate how we go above and beyond to exceed them.”
Also featured will be an application gallery that will showcase approximately seven commonly created applications to include reference guides on all the
materials used. Show specials and discounts will be highlighted throughout the expo as Neschen Americas staff will urge attendees to stop by often. Booth
#2647 will be a “hot spot” at the 2010 SGIA Expo and is surely not to be missed!
Neschen® is excited to introduce SolvoPrint™ Nolite 175, whose key feature is providing 100% opacity to remove shadows and image wash-out due to backlit
conditions. Its rigid, polyester film ensures the media stays flat and eliminates edge curl when used in display systems. Its scratch-resistant coating makes
graphics durable, while maintaining message clarity and attractiveness, and allows for use in short-term situations with no lamination saving time and money.
SolvoPrint Nolite 175’s matte finish and weight of 7.10 oz/yd2 makes it the perfect option for P-O-P displays, retail signage, trade show graphics and display
systems, especially roll-ups. Since SolvoPrint Nolite 175 is designed for use with solvent, eco-solvent, latex and UV-curable printers, its full-range of printer
options makes it very accessible and compatible.
Suitable for indoor and short-term outdoor use, SolvoPrint Nolite 175 lends itself to be the perfect media for INDISPLAY, an intelligent and inspired display
solution taking customers to the next level. INDISPLAY integrates Neschen inkjet media, Expolinc® hardware and SEAL® laminating films (the SEAL Print
Shield Deep Crystal works particularly well with this media increasing durability and protection).
“This 100% opaque film is your go-to media for rich graphics in large-scale, high-traffic areas where an impactful message is paramount,” states Tiffany Guard,
Product Manager of Inkjet Media, Neschen Americas. “The block-out layer, which creates full opacity 100% of the time, maintains the effectiveness of the
image when elements of the environment cannot be controlled.”

FSC is an international certification system that recognizes the highest levels of environmentally and socially
responsible forest management. SCS is one of the world’s leading FSC certifiers.
In order to receive FSC certifi cation, Neschen Americas successfully established policies and procedures to
account for purchasing certified material, as well as that material’s inventory, manufacturing and sales. Neschen
Americas also put in place additional administrative tasks related to FSC certification. Neschen Americas initially
plans to use the certification on its conVerd presented by Neschen products, a comprehensively green media

“Hands on School of Wrap” Classes held at Neschen Americas Training
& Education Center a Success
Neschen Americas recently hosted Mutoh’s “Hands on School of Wrap” class in Elkridge, MD and is happy to
report that the classes were a success. The classes were held June 7th – 8th (basic class) and June 9th
(advanced class) at the Neschen Americas Training & Education Center.
“The class far exceeded my expectations from the get go,” states Elmer Martinez, of GMedia Wraps, who
attended the course and was very impressed. “Justin Pate took the time to explain materials, tools, vendors,
techniques and more. I couldn’t believe that this system hadn’t been ‘required teaching’ by the major material
vendors.”
All of the students in attendance felt that they had made a very worthwhile investment. The opportunity to train
under Pate, an acclaimed graphic installer who teaches his exclusive Universal Graphic Installation System
(UGIS), proved to be an extremely valuable experience. The UGIS system is a more efficient, effective and
profitable way to wrap vehicles and enables students to gain a competitive edge in the vehicle wrap industry.
“Neschen Americas was pleased to make its facilities available and contribute to the success of each class,” adds
Mark Rugen, Training and Education Center Manager, Neschen Americas, who was on site for both sessions.
“Partnering with highly-respected printers, such as Mutoh, is sound business philosophy and we were excited to
take advantage of the opportunity.”
The recently launched Neschen Americas Training & Education Center is a multi-use facility, which houses
state-of-the-art presentation equipment and includes a workroom, conference room and expandable classroom
area to accommodate lectures, hands-on demonstrations and brainstorming sessions. Training and education is
a vital component to Neschen Americas’ business strategy and the organization is looking forward to many more
classes to come.
SEAL Brand Launches New Print Shield Anti-Graffiti
SEAL® brand, the leading producer of pressure-sensitive laminating films, is proud to introduce Print Shield®
Anti-Graffiti. This product safeguards prints, which may become vulnerable to graffiti by making them washable
and resistant to a very large number of detergents and solvents. Print Shield Anti-Graffiti consists of a high-
performance, PCTFE film, which protects images printed on UV or solvent ink-jet printers from a wide variety of
chemicals, such as paints, permanent marker and acrylics. It also allows easy removal of most other stains and
chemicals that may find their way onto the graphic.
Key benefits of Print Shield Anti-Graffiti include maintaining a long-lasting professional look while being easy to
clean with common, economical cleaners. The PCTFE high-performance film only measures 1 mil and is
completely stain, flame and chemical resistant, as well as plasticizer and stabilizer free. This unique film offers the
highest moisture barrier of any clear, flexible film on the market, which means true protection against graffiti, unlike
anything else that is available in today’s digital print and finishing market place.
“The Print Shield Anti-Graffiti is the perfect weapon to combat vandalism concerns. Our unique high-performance
film offers true graffiti protection and reduces harm to the environment,” says Neschen Americas Senior Product
Manager Dave Conrad. “We want to offer solutions that not only enhance the visual impact of an image, but
extend the life and performance of graphics as well, and Print Shield Anti-Graffiti does exactly that.
”Given its application variety, Print Shield Anti-Graffiti is expected to become a finishing standard for digitally-
printed output. Applications include, but are not limited to, rigid indoor and outdoor displays, outdoor signage,
wall murals and point-of-purchase/tradeshow displays. Designed to be used in conjunction with inks that have

it arrives at its next destination just pop it up and watch the wrinkles disappear!
New Line of Neschen Brand and SEAL Brand Self-adhesive Vinyl
Neschen Americas’ SEAL and Neschen Brand Products are excited to announce the launch of the new
Neschen and SEAL brand self adhesive vinyl product lines. There are three performance tiers in each line
to fit virtually any application: Neschen SolvoPrint ProGrip, SuperGrip and MightyGrip and SEAL Digital Vinyl
Elite, Capital and Performance. The tiers are primarily distinguished by outdoor durability and vinyl grade, while
thickness, opacity and price point are also important to consider based on project requirements.
For long-term premium performance, they have Neschen SolvoPrint ProGrip and SEAL Digital Vinyl Elite.
Available in a matte finish, these 3.4 mil thick calendered polymeric vinyls features their best outdoor durability
rating of 5-7 years. The 98% opacity level eliminates the need to use gray adhesive to block out most applied-
surface show through, while the tight dot gain and high white point provide brilliant image quality. They are
available with either permanent or removable adhesive. SolvoPrint ProGrip and Digital Vinyl Elite are ideal for
wraps or other long term signage applications on vertical, flat and slightly curved surfaces.
Neschen SolvoPrint SuperGrip and SEAL Digital Vinyl Capital are the go-to SAVs that can be counted on for a
wide variety of projects. These 3.0 mil, calendered, semi-polymeric vinyls feature a permanent adhesive and
outdoor durability of 4-5 years. They provide an excellent solution for general signage applications on vertical,
flat and slightly curved surfaces. These products are available in a gloss finish.
Neschen SolvoPrint MightyGrip and SEAL Digital Vinyl Performance are the economy SAV solution for shorter

Neschen Launches New Earth-Friendly ProNature Program
Neschen brand proudly announces the launch of ProNature. This environmentally conscious program spotlights
the company’s long history of developing and offering display graphic options produced utilizing the most
environmentally friendly methods possible.
ProNature is based on Neschen’s long standing history of environmentally friendly practices. Long before the
advent of the "green" movement they employed common-sense business practices that were closely aligned
with the founders’ conservationist ideals - including energy efficiency, product recycling and utilization of
renewable resources whenever possible. These methods are the Neschen way, and are the basis of our
environmental awareness.
As a result, the bulk of Neschen innovation is dedicated to developing and marketing products that are made
and can be disposed of in eco friendly ways. These products must also meet the company’s rigorous standards
for quality and performance. A few examples are the SolvoTex Cotton Premium Light S and SolvoTex Cotton
Premium Heavy S print media, whose primary component is a 100% natural and renewable resource that is also
biodegradable. Neschen water based adhesives performance equals that of their solvent based counterparts -
including carrier-free gudy® eco, the 100% environmentally degradable and recyclable mounting adhesive.
"Neschen has always seen the benefits of being a conservationist organization and have always utilized those
ideals in our business and manufacturing processes," says Angela Mohni, VP of Marketing. "It is the responsible
thing to do and it simply makes good business sense. As we move into the future, the initiatives encompassed
by the ProNature program will continue to play a fundamental role in the decisions we make and in the products
that we manufacture and market."
Neschen Americas, the industry leader in inkjet printable textiles, announces the launch of their new and
improved dye sublimation textile media. All aspects of the Neschen® DirectTex™ and TransferTex™ lines have
been reviewed in order to achieve the best product versatility, bold color reproduction and sharp image detail
for applications ranging from exhibit panels and flags, to retail displays and more – all at updated competitive
price points. New products have also been added to round out the offering, including DirectTex Knit Banner
Light, DirectTex Poplin Superior, TransferTex Sutton Twill and TransferTex Kelly Linen.
Neschen DirectTex™ and TransferTex™ media address both direct print and transfer dye sublimation technologies.
DirectTex products feature special coatings that allow printing direct to the fabric before sublimation, eliminating
the need for transfer paper. DirectTex products can also be used with the traditional transfer method for maximum
versatility. Neschen TransferTex textiles are designed for use with traditional, transfer dye sublimation. This
process involves printing to transfer paper and then sublimating onto the textile with the use of a heat transfer press.
"We have undergone a detailed review of our DirectTex and TransferTex product lines," says Andreas
DeGroot, Senior Product Manager for Neschen inkjet media, "We added four new products, enhanced
product performance, and restructured price points to offer our customers new, competitively priced solutions
for a broad spectrum of dye sub applications."
Neschen DirectTex and TransferTex dye sublimation media are available in roll sizes ranging from 61 in. to 122
in. wide, with roll lengths of 164 ft. to 328 ft., depending on the material. 35 in. x 23 ft. sample rolls are also

SEAL Donates Films for Outdoor Photo Exhibition in Montreal, Canada
Neschen Americas and SEAL brand products is proud to announce their participation as a vendor/sponsor
for the Lachine Canal Outdoor Photo Exhibition in Montreal, Canada. The exhibition, which was created and
directed by Boreal Communications, is part of Montreal Green, a project that celebrates nature within the urban
landscape with the objective of raising awareness to protect natural spaces amidst the pressures of urban
development.
The project started with two photographers traversing the island of Montreal to collect powerful images testifying
to the enormous natural beauty and bio-diversity of southern Quebec. Eighteen, 44 x 66 inch, large-format
images were produced from the photos (courtesy of Epson Canada, using an Epson Stylus Pro 9880 printer
and Premium Luster paper). The images were mounted to 3/4-inch MDF using SEAL® Print Mount® Ultra
and were over-laminated with SEAL® Print Shield® Standard UV Luster. Print Mount Ultra is a premium
pressure-sensitive adhesive that offers excellent lay-down performance, a smooth finish, and an aggressive
bond. It is an ideal choice for mounting prints to substrates such as MDF in an outdoor application. Print Shield
Standard UV pressure-sensitive laminating films improve the look and durability of images displayed in high-traffic
public venues. In addition to physical surface protection and a high-tack bond, the film offers protection against
UV light for graphics on display in direct sunlight. The Luster finish was chosen for its blend of wear-resistance,
color enhancement and glare control for easy viewing.
The mounting and laminating was done by Lamination Visuel Inc. using a wrap-around technique in which the
laminate is wrapped around the edges of the substrate to protect against water/moisture invasion. The finished
images were then mounted in kiosks along the north side of Lachine Canal at the Atwater Market Place.
Neschen welcomes NEW Neschen Apollo Flag™ to the Pure Color Media Family. The new flag media is
engineered to be sturdy and lightweight, allowing for the creation of dramatic messaging. It features a
specialty coating that delivers photo realistic imaging with a wide color gamut, fast dry time, and excellent
scratch resistance.
This 100% transparent polyester textile is sturdy with paper backing and is lightweight (3.2 oz/yd2). The
satin finish provides a unique look that is ideal for flag creation, window draperies, wall hangings, indoor
and outdoor banner display, retail signage, and POP display- anywhere eye-catching visuals are required.
The Apollo Flag is the product of choice for bright color printing with great bleed through.
The Apollo Flag is designed for use with most solvent, eco solvent, and uv printers in the market. The
paper backing features allows it to be printed without the use of a mesh printing kit. Available sizes include
42” x 100’, 54” x 100’, 64” x 100’. Sample rolls (20” x 10’) are available.
SEAL® proudly introduces the new ProSEAL® 44 pouch laminator. According to SEAL, the new
ProSEAL 44 makes one-step mounting and laminating even easier than before. With a preset single heated
roller and a new dual pressure floating nip design, users can feed pouch-laminating materials up to 1/4” thick
and are assured of correct roller temperature and pressure for optimum results. No special adjustments or
settings are required. Plus, the new ProSEAL’s open architecture makes it easy to clean and operate,
while maintaining maximum safety.
Additional features include a low profile space-saving footprint, reverse mode, silicone rollers for minimal
maintenance and a 1-year/90-day warranty on parts/rollers. When combined with SEAL Laminating
Pouches, Pouch Boards and Mounting Boards, the ProSEAL system offers on-demand, one-step mounting
and laminating for a wide range of indoor graphics applications up to 44” wide. These include mounted and
laminated posters and prints, mounted presentations, short-term displays, signs and more.
According to David Conrad, Senior Product Manager for SEAL and Neschen brand equipment, “Mounting
and laminating adds value to posters, prints and photos making them display-ready. The ProSEAL 44 is
positioned to economically bring these value-added benefits to a wide range of businesses and institutions.
It works especially well as a quick, professional way to display posters and prints, or as a nice complement to
medium-format desktop printing and proofing systems.” Conrad goes on to explain that photo studios, picture
framers, quick printers and service bureaus can use the ProSEAL system to supplement their current retail
offerings, and that schools and offices can benefit from ProSEAL’s “inhouse creative and presentation
capabilities.”
The new ProSEAL 44 pouch laminator is ETL approved and made in America by SEAL, a world leader in
professional laminating technology. MSRP for the new unit is $2,495.

According to SEAL, the new Ultra Plus laminators are aimed at entry-level to intermediate-level image finishers
working in low to mid-volume environments. With productivity enhancements, they will replace the current SEAL
Ultra laminator line. MSRP’s range from $6,495 to $8,995 depending on the model selected.
The key improvements that give these new models their "Plus" designation include the dual heat option and the
addition of an automatic take-up shaft for removing release liners. In addition, the 44 Ultra Plus dual heat and 44
Ultra S Plus single heat laminators operate on 110V power. This allows small shops to expand their range of
services, offering heat-assisted or heat-activated finishing solutions, such as encapsulating, without the expense
of installing 220V electrical service.
Standard features that carry over from the previous Ultra line include: touch-pad controls, adjustable speed -
up to 5 fpm for heated units and 10 fpm for cold machines, 3 pre-set temperature selections, 8 pre-set nip
openings - from 0 to ½-inch, easy-clean silicone rollers, auto-grip supply shafts, foot controls, an on-board quick
reference guide, comprehensive safety systems, and a space-saving portable design.
"Our goal in developing the new Ultra Plus units was to expand capabilities and enhance some of the volume
production related features, while maintaining a very cost-effective, compact line of laminators for local and
regional sign/display producers," says Dave Conrad, SEAL brand Product Manger for equipment. "We’re
confident we have succeeded."
The SEAL Ultra Plus laminators are CE/ETL/CSA certified, are backed by authorized SEAL technical and
applications support, and come with a one year limited warranty (180 days on rollers). They will be available for
shipment immediately following SGIA. Customers can contact SEAL brand for more information and a free
