DigitalDistinctions DigitalDistinctions The great possibilities of architectural design are now even more possible. DigitalDistinctions by Viracon combines the durability of ceramic inks with the versatility of digital printing into one proven solution for all glass-printing applications. A stunning new technology that’s as beautiful and imaginative as it is functional. DESIGN WITHOUT LIMITS DigitalDistinctions by Viracon finally removes the limitations of screen-printing. Now, you can print a vast number of colors on glass with complete predictability, repeatability and ceramic ink durability. Plus, you’ll enjoy the benefits of greater UV resistance, transparency, and scratch resistance, while applying Viracon’s solar control coatings directly over the digital image. The artistic possibilities of DigitalDistinctions would mean nothing if it didn’t also meet or exceed functionality requirements. In fact, digital in-glass printing enhances the functionality of glass and the energy performance of your building by optimizing light diffusion and transmission, energy efficiency, solar control and the support of carbon emission reduction. Functionality has never looked this good. COLOR TEXT IMAGE & PATTERNS Why Architects choose DigitalDistinctions by Viracon: + Virtually unlimited design possibilities. + Low-E coatings can be applied to the ceramic ink. + Optimized energy performance. + Enhanced durability and beauty of ceramic ink.

DigitalDistinctions DigitalDistinctions Technical Requirements • Maximum dimensions (Insulated and Monolithic Products): 84" x 165" (2134mm x 4191mm) or 96" x 144" (2438mm x 3658mm) • Maximum dimensions (Laminated Products): 84" x 165" (2134mm x 4191mm) • Minimum dimensions: 24" x 24" (610mm x 610 mm) Sample charges are based on the complexity of the project (if sample is required) All digital prints must be approved by the architect or by the building owner after viewing a full size mock-up. A waiver letter must be signed if no mock-up is approved. DigitalDistinctions ADDITIONAL INFORMATION • Digitally printed glass is to be viewed from a distance of 15 feet under natural daylight conditions. Color and reflectance may vary when viewed under a uniform, opaque background. This is not considered a defect. • Variations in perceived color may occur with any ceramic ink. Those variations will be more apparent with white or light colors than darker colors because of unavoidable light transmission. Furthermore, due to the inherent variations in ceramic ink thickness, light colors are more readily influenced by the colors of the materials installed behind the glass. • While Viracon will take every precaution to control color uniformity, Viracon takes no responsibility for variations in color or thickness that are within quality standards. • Pinholes, fisheyes, color concentrations, streaks from the printing process, and paint particles are allowed. • An indefinite border of up to 1/32” (0.8mm) is acceptable. An indefinite border refers to the sharpness of the print pattern and is dependent on the image printed. An indefinite border is characterized as ‘ghosting’, halo or saw-tooth print. • A maximum of 1/32” (0.8mm) variation in dot, hole or line location is allowed. • There will be a 1mm nominal clear edge (paint free) around all edges. • There will be a 3/8” (9.525mm) clear edge (paint free) border required around all edges where coating deletion is required. • Images or patterns may be located up to 1/16” (1.6mm) off parallel from locating glass edge. Images or patterns may be up located up to 1/8” (3mm) off parallel from edges other than locating glass edge due to glass tolerances. • All fabrication, such as cutting to overall dimensions, edgework, drilled holes, notching, and grinding shall be performed prior to applying the digital print. DigitalDistinctions IMAGES/FILES A signed document declaring that the Buyer has rights to any images or patterns that will be printed will be required. High resolution electronic design files must be supplied by the Buyer. Vector based files are highly preferred. Acceptable file types are EPS, PDF, JPEG, TIFF, AI, CDR, PSD, DWG, and DXF. Original file format preferred. Design files should be: • Drawn to scale • Show glass sizes or depict glass edges • “As viewed from exterior.” Buyer shall be responsible for the accuracy of all documents, data, glass takeoffs, shop drawings, specifications, architectural drawings, and electronic design files furnished by Buyer to Viracon. Viracon shall not be liable for any errors or omissions in documents, data, glass takeoffs, shop drawings, specifications, architectural drawings, and electronic design files furnished by Buyer, including but not limited to drawings not drawn to scale, not accurately depicted glass sizes, not depicting glass edges, or that do not depict proper orientation of the glass. <strong>VIRACON</strong> // COMPONENTS & ENHANCEMENTS 029
