Spandex bolsters Avery Dennison range

Sign-making and display industry trade supplier Spandex has extended its portfolio of Avery Dennison films to include two new short-term matt promotional films, MPI 3026 Matt Supertack and MPI 3010 Matt, and the latest range of ‘extended-life’ window films.

The new products are available with immediate effect. The extra-strong Supertack adhesive of the 95-micron MPI 3026 ensures reliable adhesion to challenging surfaces, including structured walls and substrates such as polyethylene and polypropylene.

According to Spandex the product offers excellent printability and is easy to handle, cut and apply.

The 80-micron MPI 3010 series has been extended to include a new matt film for indoor applications. The films offer improved whiteness for vibrant colours to provide greater opportunities for a wider range of cost-effective applications on large and flat surfaces.

Spandex UK general manager Leon Watson said: "The two new promotional films are an important addition to our Avery Dennison portfolio. They are ideal for Avery customers who are looking for a quality short-term, cost-effective solution for applications such as exhibition and POS displays.

"The Supertack film is perfect for promotions on interior walls. Since the launch of the films we have had a number of customers placing orders but we are expecting more as these products prove to be a good solution for economical applications where print quality is paramount."

Spandex is also now stocking the latest range of ‘extended-life’ Avery Dennison window films, which the supplier said can quickly and cost-effectively transform indoor architectural glazed walls, doors and partitions.

Key to the upgrade is the increase of indoor durability of Avery’s polymeric and cast technology products, with the Crystal and Dusted glass films now offering a two-year extended lifespan of up to nine years.

The Etched and Frosted options offer an increase in durability from nine to 15 years, which makes them suitable for high-performance, long-lasting applications.

Spandex also stocks Avery Dennison’s self-adhesive vinyls and a variety of its digital, vehicle wrapping, reflective, fluorescent, translucent and overlaminate films.

The business also supplies specialist materials from brands including 3M, Arlon and Mactac as well as equipment, accessories and materials designed to complement the displays range.

Furthermore, it has recently expanded its range of ImagePerfect materials with ImagePerfect Self-Adhesive Wall Textile (IP 2324) and self-adhesive outdoor media product IP2555 StreetApp.
