same website:

impresión de todo tipo de plásticos (PVC, PP, PETC, APET, POLIESTIRENO, VINILOS, LENTICULAR...) metalizados y cartoncillos

I'm just not sure what is 'metalizado' here. Not plastic, because it would (or at least should) be inside the brackets. Just metallised materials in general? I suppose it would be paper or cardboard?
