Three grades of vinyl, one laminate. That is the whole shelf.
We print on vinyl made in the U.S.A., in three grades: economy, premium and air-release premium. Our premium vinyls are 100% polymeric, with no monomeric or blended plasticizers, so they stay flexible, resist shrinkage and come off clean years later. Economy is a polymeric hybrid built for shorter jobs. The vinyl comes in white, clear and holographic chrome.
- Made in the U.S.A.
- ASTM E-84-17 Class A fire rating
- Clean removability
- Gloss or matte laminate on any vinyl
