Various graphic design by transfer foils

IMD (In-Mold Decoration) is a technique where a design printed transfer foil film is loaded into a mold, and the design is transferred onto the surface of the molded product during injection molding.

IMD (In-Mold Decoration) process
IMD (In-Mold Decoration) process

Transfer foils are manufactured through multicolor printing using gravure printing. Also, metallic gloss colors can be processed using aluminum vapor deposition. With such multicolor processing technology, the range of design possibilities greatly expands.

  • Geometric patterns
  • abstract designs
  • metallic hairlines
  • metallic colors such as gold and silver

IMD (In-Mold Decoration) technology is suitable for the production of a variety of cover panels.
Furthermore, it is also possible to achieve surface designs that incorporate tactile sensations such as “smoothness,” “moisture,” and “softness.”

Additionally, at Nissha, we have an in-house design department and a system in place to propose original designs that reflect our customers' voices.

IMD (In-Mold Decoration) realises one-stop manufacturing of decorated molded products

IMD (In-Mold Decoration) is a technology that provides molding and printing in one stop.
Not only the graphic patterns of the display window frame, but also product logos and button marks can be transferred at the same time as molding.

In addition, by printing the frame part on the molded product surface, a seamless shape without steps can be achieved. As a result, it has become possible to provide hygienic products without dust accumulating in the steps.

Clear plastic molding for display

In IMD (In-Mold Decoration), by combining transparent resin molding and decorative transfer, display window frame parts can be manufactured in a single process. In other words, display panels can be manufactured with a simpler process than two-color molding.
Additionally, a hard coat layer is provided on the transfer foil surface, allowing us to offer display panels with excellent scratch resistance.

Furthermore, the transparent window part is manufactured considering optical characteristics. Optical specs required as display characteristics, such as welds and retardation, are quality checked during the design and manufacturing stages to meet customer requirements.
