Self-adhesive vinyl films are a staple in sign-making—versatile, durable, and available in a wide range of colours and finishes to suit signage, decals, and graphic applications. But not all vinyl films are created equally. They’re engineered to meet specific performance needs, which makes understanding the differences in film composition, adhesive technology, and durability key to choosing the right product for your project.
