CMA pioneer Duratrans alternative

Following its big splash at FESPA 2015, CMA Imaging has revealed that its new environmentally-friendly Perfect Trans sign-making media has seen month-on-month sales growth in the UK. The product reportedly offers the effect of Duratrans RA4 silver halide film without its drawbacks.

“Formerly products that tried to emulate the quality of Duratrans tended to fail because they lacked the ability to maintain the ability to combine strong colour depth with the back-lighting effects essential to bring these applications to life,” states Mark Sanderson, managing director of CMA Imaging.

CMA Perfect Trans has been based on the end criteria needed to generate similar results but without any chemicals or darkroom working


He adds: “CMA Perfect Trans has been based on the end criteria needed to generate similar results but without any chemicals or darkroom working.

"As a result our material meets the growing need for greener products that are cost-effective and enable print companies to maintain and increase their margins.”

Sanderson says the material is ideal for back-lit applications and light-boxes, is fully recyclable does not need over-laminating to produce a glossy finish.
