IMD (In Mold Decoration) means In-mold injection decoration technology. IMD is an internationally popular surface decoration artwork.

IMD is a technology that puts the printed decorative sheet into the injection mold and then injects the resin on the back of the molded sheet.

In-Mold Decoration(In-Mould Decoration) is mainly used for decoration and function control panels of home appliances, automobile dashboards, air condition panels, mobile phone casings/lenses, washing machines, refrigerators, and other applications.

In-mold decorations, in-mold labels, or IML combine graphics with injection molded plastic aimed to create seamless products without using secondary laminating processes. Kaike Technology heat or vacuum forms curved shapes that wrap around edges to produce a visually appealing product without gaps around the edges.

The unique method of combining a decorative overlay with the molding process can add durability to graphics and minimizes manufacturing costs while adding design flexibility. When a customer is using a control panel, the graphic overlay is the first thing they see and can be described as the face of a product, so In-Mold Decoration (IML/IMD) is used on controls and capacitive surfaces and provide concise and clear brand identification. Also, in-mold decorations offer a protective shield against abuse and ensures the life span of the devices.
