  • One-of-a-kind film, Arlon IllumiNITE Wrap, is redefining wrapping with reflective films.

    One-of-a-kind film, Arlon IllumiNITE Wrap™, is redefining wrapping with reflective films and it’s been added to the ever-growing portfolio of innovative materials at William Smith.

    Thanks to FLITE Technology, the wrap is effortlessly installed and its superior repositionability minimises bruising and chatter lines, resulting in optimal reflectivity and allowing graphics to command attention during the day and night.

    The premium digitally-printable reflective film gently conforms to irregular and smooth surfaces and can be combined with an overlaminate to protect and enhance graphics.

    Ideal for decals, full and partial vehicle graphics, and fleet markings, the 125-micron wrap is easily removed and has an exceptional gloss finish when used with Series 3220 Overlaminate.

    Arlon has also added a matt overlaminate to Series 3270. Suitable for use with SLX Cast Wrap, this premium cast overlaminate boasts a 7-year durability and can be used in deep channels, rivets, compound curves and even on smooth wall surfaces.

    Designed to extend the life of graphics by up to two years, the overlaminate shields graphics from outdoor elements, thanks to added UV stabilisers. It is constructed from a 50-micron cast vinyl film with a clear, permanent pressure-sensitive adhesive.

    As well as SLX Cast Wrap, this protective Matt Overlaminate is ideal for use with DPF 6100XLP and DPF 6000XRP vinyls, for vehicle and fleet applications.

    "The additions to the Arlon range have cemented our commitment to supplying the UK with the best quality materials," said Chris Bradley, Head of Marketing at William Smith, part of the William Smith Group 1832.

    "The IllumiNITE Wrap™ with FLITE Technology provides an excellent way to ensure graphics can be seen clearly 24 hours a day and with effortless installation, it’s a brilliant film to work with."

    Not sure ‘one-of-a-kind’ holds fast, the vastly expensive 3M 780mc on my racks are testament to that, however, I’m certainly keen to try it and see if it loads better into my latex without fingers appearing from the edges – as 3m does! ..

    Their Flite technology adhesive system is one of a kind Hugh, which is on this new reflective which makes application and removal very easy. I have not used this reflective but its the same adhesive system Arlon has on their new wrapping film also.

    Ah ok, a technicality! I think the £m 780 has the controltac adhesive but, I am keen to give this a go as an alternative to 3m, I guess it comes down to price.

    3m is way over rated. That SLX Arlon is the job easy used & great finish [emoji106]
