The Afourdables – 3M Super Heroes
The Affordable – 3M Super Heroes
Recognising the needs of its customers in today’s stringent economic climate, when budgets can become severely strained, William Smith is giving signmakers a helping hand by reducing the price of the four most popular films in 3M’s portfolio. This means that signmakers can more easily meet their own customers’ budgets, across a wide range of signage applications, without compromising on the quality of service they offer.
Dubbed ‘The Afourdables’, these 3M ‘Super Heroes’ are 30 Series, 50 Series, 2330 Series and IJ20 Series.
30 Series is a three to five-year monomeric opaque film for interior and exterior use. Available in 39 gloss and 35 matt colours, it is suitable for application to flat surfaces on windows, signage, display graphics and vehicles.
Trek Highway Services uses 3M 30 Series for temporary traffic management signage. “It was chosen for its performance as it is easy to cut, handles well and meets the requirements of our markets. Pricing is also very reasonable,” says Paul Manning
DS Signs’ Robert Cook comments: “We use 3M 30 Series for most of our work, which is temporary For Sale/To Let boards. It was chosen on the basis of price and does a good job for the cost of the material.”
50 Series is a five to seven year polymeric opaque general purpose film for a wide range of signage and marking applications. It comes in a choice of 60 colours and is suitable for application to flat surfaces without rivets.
Stripes Bournemouth uses 3M 50 Series for vehicle graphics and general signage. Malcolm Parker says, “It’s a brilliant material, easy to weed out and easy to apply. We chose 50 Series because most customers know 3M and recognise the quality of their products. It has never let us down and lasts well”
2330 Series is a five to seven year translucent polymeric film, available in 34 colours, and offers an affordable solution for internally illuminated signs as well as window graphics. With a low surface gloss to eliminate glare, it provides uniform colour in both reflected and transmitted light.
Laura Hoult, NCS Fabrications: “3M 2330 Series was specified by our client and is used to plot text and apply to acrylic panels, which are illuminated. The quality of the material is excellent and the price is very reasonable for a 3M product,”
IJ20 Series is a one to two-year monomeric digital print film that offers a high-quality image with solvent-based piezo inkjet and electrostatic printers. It is available in white gloss, white matt and transparent gloss, all with removable adhesive and suitable for a wide range of signage applications.
‘The Afourdables’ are all available from William Smith ex-stock as full, part or split rolls, with next day delivery of full or part rolls on orders placed before 6pm.
