“We’re seeing many good clients interested in our more innovative products like protection films and laminates that are more creative," Ian Parsonson, MD Hexis Australia, told Wide Format Online. “Our latest digital printable cast film, SKINTAC THE190EVO, has been a big positive for us at the show."

THE190 EVO is a low tack, high performance vehicle wrap film that is quick to install due to its Take Heat Easy technology, which is compatible with all printing systems. It is highly conformable, versatile and has an excellent gloss finish. THE190EVO may be used in combination with high performance Hexis cast laminates making it suitable for vehicle, boat or interior decoration.

“General signage guys are looking for something that’s a little bit different that still has a good margin,” said Parsonson. “Everything’s far more competitive today but there are opportunities where businesses take a different tack to their signage that’s more decoration-motivated. There’s a bigger margin and less competition in that area because not everyone’s into it. 

“Obviously our textured laminate films provide opportunity for more creativity with a broader sales aspect, so they’re not just selling signage at the front of a building but they take it right through inside for shop fitters and things like that. It can achieve greater results than similar products that are more rigid and don’t have to conformability and 3D effects of some of this stuff.”
