A Heritage of Metalizing Flexible Substrates

In 1974 our engineers built the world’s largest vacuum metalizer, allowing the company to metallize 80” wide. Since this time, our metalizing division has grown to serve a diverse group of industries and applications ranging from label material, packaging, and specialty applications. Dunmore has continued to expand vacuum metalizing with the addition of new metalizing capabilities and improvements.

Metallizing, Metalizing, Metallising, or Metalising?

In American English usage, both metallizing (with two “l”s) and metalizing (with one “l”) are used interchangeably; neither version is wrong or misspelled. Similarly, in British English, both metallising or metalising are used, though metallising (with two “l”s) seems more prevalent.
