Without a doubt, vinyl is one of the top materials we offer. It is popular in the sign industry because it is inexpensive and versatile. But, vinyl is not always the best material for every situation. For example, you will have a hard time getting vinyl to stick when you have flooring or walls that are porous. That is why All Star Signs offers AlumiGraphics for walls and floors in Escondido CA.
What Are AlumiGraphics?
AlumiGraphics are a foil-based medium (FBM). This material is taking the large format digital printing world by storm, and thanks to its innovative design, it has already won several awards. Heavy duty yet pliable aluminum foil is used to make AlumiGraphics. Due to its many unique characteristics, it is better than vinyl in a lot of ways. This signage solution lets you easily transform underutilized areas into affordable, mass marketing platforms.
There are grip and smooth finish options for AlumiGraphics. Grip is ideal for asphalt, concrete, tile, and other rigid walkway surfaces due to its slip-resistant and reflective properties. On the other hand, if you have stucco, concrete blocks, or brick, the non-glare, satin finish of smooth AlumiGraphics would work better. And, of course, both work great for walls.
Why Are AlumiGraphics So Popular?
There are numerous reasons why you should consider AlumiGraphics for walls and floors in Escondido CA, such as:
- No Shrinkage – When you tile your graphics, you do not need to worry about gaps or seams. For instance, when vinyl experiences changes in temperatures or moisture, it will sometimes retract and expose its adhesive then peel off.
- Holds the Shape of Any Surface – AlumiGraphics hold and conform to the shape of any surface they are installed on. In situations where other large form media have trouble, it works with the adhesive to offer a successful application.
- Easy Installation and Removal – Without leaving any residues behind, it is quite simple to remove FBM. Also, we can do quick installations, and thanks to the pressure-sensitive adhesives, it will conform to smooth and rough textured surfaces.
- Wide Temperature Range – Since it is not affected by temperatures like vinyl is, AlumiGraphics have a large service range. As a matter of fact, they even work in areas with sub-zero temperatures. This makes FBM useful in freezer units.
- Heavy Duty Construction – FBM lasts for up to a year. And, while vinyl tends to break down after a while, FBM will not deteriorate at the end of its lifespan. It is ideal for short-term or long-term use in wet, hot, or cold environments.
- Eco-Friendly – Look no further than AlumiGraphics if you need green, sustainable signage. When you are finished with FBM, you can simply dispose of it with your other aluminum recycling since it does not contain PVC or other hazardous elements.
