Custom Color Printing NYC: Neon or Fluorescent?

Custom Electric Color Stories + Brand Identity Inspiration for your

Personal and Business Stationery Printing

BURST into Futuristic Tradition

Increasingly: We encounter requests for electric, fluorescent + neon colors to be washed over the complete spectrum of NYC Business Stationery , Book Printing , and Event Invitations . Naturally, we find ourselves pressed to comment on the colloquial interchangeability of these terms.

Neon , in common use, can refer to any barrier-reef hue , typical of reflective gear, “Hazard Zone” signage, and the 1990s masterpiece, Hackers .

Truth: Neon is red , Hot Red—perhaps “Blood Orange” if you’re fancy—since it happens, in fact, to be a specific element on the periodic table.

A noble gas, Neon has become an accessible catch-all term for those of us who preferred to do their English homework during science class. SO, to create that palpable radioactive-look in a tone other than red, a color-chemist would have to travel across the elemental tetris tiles over to Xenon for blue , Argon for lilac , and on. Within the strict context of “neon” or “electric” pigments for printing , the color-monopolists at Pantone (and the trail of masterful artists before them) derive color from luminous mineral sources, like phosphor .

No one Does it like RhiRhi !Check out more Intergalactic Metallic + Fluorescent Pigments from Fenty for colorstory inspiration . Just like dye, MakeUp packs a mineral punch.

“The only place Neon could actually printed,” our worldly Print Expert explains, “is Jupiter—where the planetary pressure is high enough to mutate the gas into a solid.” Give us a few media turnaround cycles, and soon enough Publicide will be bringing you interplanetary printing .

“ Fluorescence ”, a broader and more appropriate term than “Neon”, refers to the agitated electromagnetic unions of light + element. Fluorescent Color , will present itself when stimulated by the illuminated bringer of truth: ultraviolet light. UV is just beyond the violet light spectrum visible to the human eye. The short wavelength of UV reacts with the naturally occurring fluorescent lumens in minerals, gases, + even living creatures (hello, bioluminescence ) to produce that spectacular hilighter glow we all know and roll with .

At the end of the ink barrel—ethereal plankton, exterior signage, and Pantone Color-Chips have luminous atoms in common.
