ORAFOL Americas has introduced several new products this year, focusing on car wrapping and digital vinyl graphics printing materials. At the FESPA 2024 trade fair, they showcased new colors for their ORACAL® 970RA Premium Wrapping Cast films, including Turbo Turquoise, Enchanted Violet, Citrus Fury, and Riviera Rush, all available in both standard and sparkling versions.
Additionally, ORAFOL has enhanced their ORACAL® 970RA+ car wrapping films with ProSlide technology, which improves repositionability and ease of application. They also introduced the ORAJET® 3971RA+, a PVC-free premium digital printing cast film made of thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU), which, when paired with the ORAGUARD® 279 laminate, offers a sustainable solution for high-quality car wraps.
These new products highlight ORAFOL’s commitment to innovation and sustainability in the graphics industry. The ORACAL® 970RA Premium Wrapping Cast films offer several significant advantages, particularly suited for high-quality full and partial car wrapping:
- Wide Range of Colors: The 970RA series now includes 133 different colors, including new shades like Turbo Turquoise, Enchanted Violet, Citrus Fury, and Riviera Rush. This extensive color palette allows for greater customization and creativity in vehicle designs.
- ProSlide Technology: This feature enhances the repositionability of the films, making them easier and quicker to apply. The ProSlide technology allows installers to adjust the film without stretching or damaging it, which is particularly useful for complex curves and contours on vehicles.
- Dimensional Stability: The 970RA films are known for their excellent dimensional stability, which ensures that they maintain their shape and appearance over time, even when applied to curved surfaces, beading, and rivets.
- RapidAir® Technology: This technology facilitates bubble-free application, which is critical for achieving a smooth, professional finish. It allows air to escape during installation of vinyl graphics, reducing the risk of bubbles and wrinkles.
- Durability and Protection: The films are designed to be durable and provide protection against environmental factors such as UV radiation, weathering, and physical abrasion. This makes them suitable for long-term applications and ensures the vehicle’s appearance remains pristine.
- Ease of Use: The combination of ORAFOL’s ProSlide and RapidAir® technologies makes the 970RA films user-friendly, reducing the time and effort required for installation. This is particularly beneficial for professional wrappers who need to deliver high-quality results efficiently.
Overall, the ORACAL® 970RA Premium Wrapping Cast films offer a versatile and reliable solution for vehicle wraps, combining aesthetic flexibility with practical benefits for both installers and end-users.
