Roland DG expands DIMENSE interior decoration line with 8 new substrates, 13 paint colors, 4 decoration kits; media options now include Type II-compliant materials for commercial applications

Irvine, Calif. – Roland DG Corporation, a leading manufacturer of wide-format inkjet printers, printer/cutters, vinyl cutters, and other advanced digital imaging devices, has announced the global availability of 8 new printable substrates, 13 paint colors, and 4 interior decoration kits to the DIMENSE digital printing solution, which enables the production of high-value dimensional surface decoration with textured printing.

DIMENSE is a digital print solution consisting of an inkjet printer combined with special texture-forming media, a structural ink to control the texture, and CMYK water-based ink that is safe for use indoors. After printing, the media is heated by the printer’s on-board heater, causing areas not coated with structured ink to foam. This interaction between the hardware, media, and ink results in stunning textured output, including three-dimensional wallcoverings and other interior design elements, with incredible visual and tactile appeal.

Ryugo Nimura, President of Global Sales and Marketing at Roland DG notes, “Our innovative DIMENSE solution enables on-demand surface imaging with unique textures that add high value to interiors such as hotels, high-end retail environments, restaurants, museums, and corporate offices.”

Eight new types of dedicated media are now available, including new substrates which allow embossing up to 0.078 of an inch (2 mm) high for sharper and deeper dimensional effects. These media are available either in a non-woven or a textile-based canvas version. For the U.S. market, media that is compliant with the U.S. Type II standard, which defines the durability and performance of wallpaper for commercial applications, is now available. Additionally, media options with twice the scratch-resistance of standard material have been added for use in high-traffic environments.

One of the main features of DIMENSE is the ability to create awe-inspiring artistic effects that go beyond digital printing by manually painting on the embossed output. To provide a ready-to-use solution, thirteen compatible paints are now available, including metallic colors such as gold, silver, and copper as well as special effects paints like matte, sand, and velvet, expanding creative possibilities.

In addition, four new application kits are available, containing the necessary tools for post-processing such as painting and applying finished wallpaper. The kits come with manuals and instructional videos that clearly guide users through the process, so ideas can take shape quickly and easily.

“In recent years, creating unique experiences and styles has become critical for designers and businesses,” said Nimura. “In hospitality and commercial spaces, creating a distinct and unforgettable environment that impresses visitors is increasingly important. In offices and residential spaces, there is a growing interest in creating environments that embody a company's identity and personality. DIMENSE offers a one-of-a-kind solution to meet these needs, and these new accessories will further expand the capabilities of users. We look forward to continuing to expand our line of DIMENSE-related products to provide new creative possibilities and excitement to people around the world.”
