Laminated Safety Signs Help Execute Demanding Safety ProgramsLomont In-Mold Technology Helps Manufacturers Execute Demanding Safety ProgramsMT. PLEASANT, IA (September 3, 2010) Safety signs and tags manufactured with In-Mold Technology from Lomont have been proven to withstand even the harshest plant environments. They last significantly longer than standard laminated signs so plant safety personnel don’t have to worry about being out of compliance because of a sign that has faded or deteriorated. Lomont’s In-Mold Technology (IMT) process (patent pending) fuses the layered graphics and plastic together into one piece using injection molding, a process that utilizes the advanced properties of plastic materials and robotics. Exhaustive field testing in all conditions as well as internal QUV accelerated weathering and liquid penetrant inspection testing has proven that IMT signs can endure even the most corrosive sanitation regime. A leading food safety company logged nearly 1200 hours of field testing prior to approving Lomont IMT signs for its facilities. Lomont IMT custom safety signs and tags are fully customizable so manufacturers can tailor them to meet their safety program requirements. Flexible graphic capabilities – including bar coding, UPC’s, numerical sequencing & 4-color -- optimize visual management and compliance programs. IMT signs can be printed with high visibility colors that are not always available for laminated signs. Lomont IMT helps simplify the signage process by offering templates for plant safety personnel to fill in with their specific information. Graphics can be uploaded to a secure .ftp site and the company prints the signs and ships them back to the customer. ### Lomont IMT is a division of Lomont Molding, Inc., one of the premier plastic molders in the US.
