In recent years, with the continuous development and innovation of new materials and new processes, CMF has gradually received more attention from related industrial chains. CMF has a relatively long development history abroad and has been developing for about ten years in China. CMF represents Color color, Material material and Finishing process, respectively, which are mainly aimed at surface decorative materials. With the help of design innovation, it is realized through materials and processes, so that the front-end design concept and innovation are truly implemented into products.

On the basis of CMF, it also needs to include P, that is, Pattern patterns. The design of surface decoration is always inseparable from the design and transformation of patterns. On this basis, Suzhou Impression’s core advantages micro-nano optical technology can be combined with this.

How does micronano optical technology be combined with CMF? The application of
in surface decorative materials, Suzhou Impression’s micro-nano optical technology has accumulated relatively rich experience from front-end design, mold development, and the implementation of the post-track process. Suzhou Impression’s micro-nano optical technology was first used in products such as anti-counterfeiting labels, anti-counterfeiting lines, certificate and certificate anti-counterfeiting films. At present, we have also applied our micro-nano optical technology to plastic materials and products that cannot be applied to in-Mold Decoration process through the film interior decoration process IMD (In-Mold Decoration) process, such as PC, AS, ABS, PVC and other substrates. Speaking of IMD, according to the different process and product structure and shape, it is roughly divided into three types:
1, In-Mold Label, referred to as IML-2D
2, In-Mold Roller, referred to as IMR-2D,
3, In-Mold Forming, referred to as IMF-3D
Which process is used, it is necessary to consider comprehensively in combination with materials, specific applications, performance requirements, and cost.
In addition to the IMD process, the application of micro-nano optical technology can also be achieved through nanoimprinting, including hard pressing, soft pressing, UV molding, etc. With these processes, optical texture patterns can be applied to different plastics, paper and metal materials. Micro-nano optics is a nano-scale microstructure, and the implementation of this nanostructure can be achieved with the help of different processes and methods. Suzhou Impression's holographic lithography technology is also one of them, and each process has its advantages and characteristics.
Nowadays, competition in various industries such as 3C electronics, small appliances, and automotive decoration is increasingly fierce. New appearance designs, texture patterns and reasonable costs are the competition points among brands. Suzhou Impression has experienced design technology and R&D team, which can combine customers' brand positioning and provide customers with complete solutions from design, mold development, and later technology.
