Grafityp printable, self adhesive vinyl
Grafityp printable, self adhesive vinyl
We offer an extensive assortment of printable vinyl from Grafityp, a renowned Belgian brand known for its consistent quality and reliable adhesives. This versatile vinyl is ideal for applications like signage, vehicle lettering, and decor, and is suitable for flat surfaces, windows, and lightly textured walls.
Our range includes both monomeric and polymeric grades with various finishes and adhesives, all compatible with eco-solvent, solvent, and latex printers.
Monomeric and Polymeric
In the overview below we divide the available printable vinyl in Monomeric and Polymeric.
Monomeric printable self-adhesive vinyl made from a single layer of PVC with a higher proportion of plasticizers, making it less stable and prone to shrinking or cracking over time, especially outdoors, but cheaper to buy. Ideal for flat, inside and short outside applications.
Polymeric printable self-adhesive vinyl is made from stabilized PVC with lower levels of plasticizers, resulting in better dimensional stability and less shrinkage, making it more suitable for outdoor and slightly curved applications, but a slightly higher investment. Ideal for applications that require more durability.
