Polycarbonate Film

Polycarbonate film is known to be highly impact-resistant, scratch-resistant, optically clear, hard-coated, and flame-retardant. It is ideally suited for applications such as membrane switches, cluster panels, nameplates, face shields, decals, and more.

Floor Film

Floor film is available in a variety of temporary and long-term use materials. It can be placed on indoor and outdoor floors and placed on a number of different surfaces. Floor film is available in slip and scratch-resistant options and offered in a variety of adhesive grades. Our industry-leading floor film products include brands such as Floor Appeal, Alumigraphics, and VersaGraphics 360.

Overlaminate and Adhesive Films

Overlaminate and Adhesive Films are primarily used in printed applications for mounting, laminating, and encapsulating. These films are applied to the top or front side of an image or product to provide protection from abrasion, moisture, and other potentially damaging effects in both indoor and outdoor environments.

Polyester Film

Polyester Film exhibits good chemical resistance, is tough, durable, and has great dimensional stability. PET film can be die cut or laser cut, and some specific PET film is also FDA approved. Some common applications include cluster panels, ID tags, membrane switches, nameplates, faceshields, and more.

Polyethylene Film

Polyethylene Film exhibits great tape adhesion, lightweight durability, and is resistant to water, rot, wrinkles, and chemicals. Because of these characteristics, PE film is commonly used as a protective barrier application for renovations, pest control, agricultural coverings, and others.

Rigid Vinyl Film (PVC)

Rigid Vinyl Film, also known as polyvinyl chloride (PVC), comes in rigid and flexible forms. It is a thermoplastic polymer known for its excellent flame retardance, strength, and impact resistance, making it the perfect solutions for construction, packaging, signage, and bank cards.
