Applique Information

WHAT IS THE APPPLIQUE (ADA) METHOD?


The Applique production process where the raised text & graphics are machined in position on the substrate panel. If the substrate is 3mm thick or greater, precise holes are drilled with small balls inserted to create each Braille Dome.

This production method, primarily used for metal signage and allows for greater customisation than our BrailleFace signs, however these signs are not as durable as BrailleFace signs as the text and figures are only adhered to the surface of the sign as opposed to stamped into the metal itself.

It is also possible to mix and match the production methods ie. using our 1.6mm aluminium as the substrate where we can punch the braille but then use the Applique method to use custom text and/or graphics.
