Graphic overlays are the face of your product, the quality of the overlay can enhance the perception of your product.
At MTM Products, we have over 40 years’ experience in manufacturing and supplying bespoke graphic overlays featuring domed or pillow embossed buttons, clear display windows, light diffusing LED windows and cut-outs. Our well trained and skilled staff will work with you to ensure your bespoke graphic overlay conveys your brand image and is suitable for the environment in which your product is used.
We have the knowledge and expertise to ensure that your overlay solution enhances your product by selecting the right combination of ink, substrate and adhesive, so that your product looks good and performs well. If required, we have the inhouse capability to mount your graphic overlays on either an aluminium or acrylic plate, with cut outs as required.
MTM’s graphic overlays can be screen or digitally printed, or created using a combination of the two.
We have the manufacturing techniques and skills to ensure graphics are of high quality, display windows are crystal clear, and no light leakage around LED windows.
This expertise allows us to print complex designs with fine detail and variable data, while matching colours to Pantone or RAL colours systems, provided samples or your brand guidelines to get your desired colour.
Our range of overlay materials provide flexibility with good abrasion and solvent resistance for both indoor and outdoor applications.

Our Anti-Microbial® overlays are made using a robust hard-coated polyester that’s active 24/7 to inhibit the growth of bacteria on the surface. Perfect for medical device applications, the polyester film stays hygienically cleaner and fresher for longer than standard materials.
Glow in the dark photoluminescent overlays are ideal for industrial fire and safety signage, nurse call handsets and other medical devices. If the power goes off or the lights go out, the overlay will glow, making it visible in the dark.
Graphic overlays are often fitted into a shaped recess, requiring cut outs for switches, knobs, LED lights or numerical displays. Crystal clear windows can be added to any fascia or control panel overlay, to allow displayed information to be clear enough to read.
Embossed graphic overlays provide a tactile indicator of where to push to activate a function, with features like raised buttons that offer clear feedback for user interaction. Additionally, Braille provides independence for blind and partially sighted people.
Using state of the art equipment and innovative processes, we are able to digitally print overlays using eco-solvent inks in either complex full colour or graduated colour designs. This allows us to make them bespoke for your needs.
Autotex steel polyester gives a stainless-steel look, offers high abrasion resistance, and has the flexibility to adhere to slightly curved surfaces. Cut outs, windows and embossed buttons can be added where required too.
We can provide detailed instructions for the correct application of our labels and overlays. Proper application is crucial to ensure optimal adhesion and longevity. If you have any questions or need further guidance, our team is here to assist.
We use a variety of techniques ranging from CNC cutting and punching / laser / cutting press / drag knife and reciprocal cutting to suit the material composition of your labelling and to achieve a high-quality finish end result, no matter what your shape requirements are. We can also add holes, windows, or other design elements to suit your application needs.
