Perforated Window Vinyl (50/50 & 70/30)

Tiny holes let people inside see out while passers-by see your design. Choose 50/50 for balanced visibility or 70/30 for richer print quality.

Specialty film printed on both sides, so the image is readable from indoors and outdoors.

• Key benefits: Two-sided messaging without sacrificing light

Clear Vinyl

Graphics printed on optically clear film allow daylight to flood in while your brand stays front-and-center.

• Use cases: Elegant logos on office glass, subtle retail branding, decorative accents
• Expected lifetime: 2–5 years

• Key benefits: Maintains natural light, sleek modern aesthetic

Frosted Vinyl

Frosted (etched-glass) vinyl diffuses light and softens views, delivering privacy with a sophisticated finish.

• Use cases: Conference rooms, healthcare facilities, spas, front-door lites
• Expected lifetime: 5–7 years
• Installation: Moderate; bubbles and seams minimized by a pro
• Key benefits: Upscale look, customizable patterns, glare reduction

Why Consider Lamination?

A clear over-laminate acts like automotive clear-coat: it blocks UV rays, fends off scratches, repels dirt and moisture, and deepens color—helping many installations stay vibrant for years longer. Lamination is recommended for long-term or high-traffic applications (opaque, perforated, dual-view, clear, frosted) and may be unnecessary for temporary clings. Our team will advise on the best option for your project.
