Challenge:
OMX Graphics faced an ongoing challenge in meeting customer expectations for visually striking, durable designs. Their graphics needed to offer a high level of detail and realism whilst also withstanding extreme conditions such as dirt, water, and UV exposure. Prior to partnering with Substance, OMX spent considerable time searching for a material provider capable of delivering the top-tier quality required for their high production standards.

Solution:
The solution came in the form of Substance’s premium materials. OMX began using Substance’s products, including Ultracurve 1500 Gloss, X1 Gloss, X1 Matte, X1 Silver, and X1 Holographic. These materials proved easy to work with and brought immediate benefits to both the production process and the final product. As OMX Graphics stated, “Our product demands high-quality, visually striking designs, and Substance’s ‘tools’ have enabled us to elevate the quality of our graphics to the next level.”

The durability, flexibility, and premium finish of Substance materials ensured that OMX Graphics could consistently meet and exceed their customers' demands for both aesthetic appeal and long-lasting performance. In addition, their custom motocross graphics have set new standards in the industry.

  • Increased Customer Satisfaction: OMX saw a 15% to 20% rise in customer satisfaction, largely due to the improved quality of their products, fewer complaints, and more repeat business.

Additional Benefits:
Substance’s innovative materials, such as their chrome and holographic vinyl, have enabled OMX Graphics to push creative boundaries and offer cutting-edge designs that set them apart from competitors. The ease of use has also meant that the OMX team could focus more on creativity rather than dealing with technical challenges, further enhancing their reputation as a leader in the motorsports graphics market.

Conclusion:

The superior performance of Substance’s materials continues to help OMX maintain its position as an industry leader, whilst allowing the brand to innovate and explore new design possibilities.
