As material technologies and technical textiles develop, there is an ever increasing number of specialised and creative digitally printable materials available to the industry, and so it’s easy to forget that there is a still a very real requirement for staple sign and graphics products.
As material technologies and technical textiles develop, there is an ever increasing number of specialised and creative digitally printable materials available to the industry, and so it’s easy to forget that there is a still a very real requirement for staple sign and graphics products.
As media specialists, we feel it’s also important to talk about the product development that’s been taking place around self-adhesive materials and look at the options open to sign makers.
Our self-adhesive portfolio consists of high quality and competitively priced products that are manufactured in Europe. We are a UK distributor for Intercoat, which is ideal for high-quality, every day sign making. Manufactured in Germany, the premium quality Intercoat range includes self-adhesive matte and gloss vinyl, which is perfect for a wide variety of applications from stickers to product labelling, or signs, badges, window and retail graphics. Window film and protective over-laminates are also available to complement the core graphics products.
Intercoat is printable on any wide format latex, eco solvent, solvent or UV printer, and it’s the ideal choice to form the core stock for any sign maker or graphics professional. The premium quality right across the range ensures a consistent result, so print companies can trust it to deliver.
We’re also a distributor for DECAL which is ideal for those more specialist applications. DECAL is the only range in the market that is resin adhesive coated giving a very high tack system, with less shrinkage than other PVC films and a glossier finish. It’s excellent for signage and flat surfaces with a durability of around 5 years for indoor applications and 3 years when used outdoors.
