Graphic Overlays
Overview
A graphic overlay, sometimes called a nameplate, is a printed graphic surface that is placed over top of the internal electronics of a product. The overlay serves multiple purposes. First, it protects the sensitive materials and components from environmental conditions and wear and tear. Second, and just as important, it provides a clean, intuitive experience for the user to operate the device.
At Tapecon, we believe that the graphic overlay shouldn’t be an afterthought of your design. In fact, it may be the first and most frequently used component your user engages with. Using top-of-the-line materials and our 100-plus years of experience, we can create a custom overlay that looks, feels, and operates to perfection, and elevates the entire experience of your product.
