ReTac Textures is ideal for customers wanting to create eye-catching graphics in home, business, retail and display environments. Merseyside-based print service provider, Oriel Studios, used Drytac’s ReTac Textures embossed wallcovering film to create an informative and impressive set of wall graphics for use in a nearby school.
A recent project saw it link up with a local school, Merchant Taylors’, which is merging its boys’ and girls’ premises onto one site. The school was seeking to improve its interior graphics, with Oriel Studios given the task of producing a centrepiece installation celebrating the history of both schools.
Oriel Studios managed the entire project from start to finish, taking care of everything from the initial consultation and measurements to the design, printing, and final installation. To ensure a high-quality, standout finish, they chose Drytac’s ReTac Textures Linen.
Ideal for users wanting to create graphics across home, business, retail and display environments, ReTac Textures is a polymeric self-adhesive vinyl with a permanently peelable adhesive backing, meaning it can be repositioned during installation and easily removed, even years later. Available in sand, linen, canvas finishes, the product is compatible with eco-solvent, latex/resin and UV printers.
‘We went with this product after doing a bit of product testing as we felt it gave the right finish to its surroundings and, with it being a school, the textured finish would be longer lasting against the bumps and scrapes of school life,’ said Jake Wilson, Sales and Marketing Manager at Oriel Studios.
The ReTac Textures media was supplied by Premier, Drytac’s exclusive partner in the UK and Ireland for all wide format print media. Oriel Studios used its HP Latex 800W to print all graphics in-house, before its expert team headed to the school to complete the installation in April 2025 – all of which went off without a hitch.
‘We had no issues from production or installation,’ Wilson said. ‘The product was great to install, and we were able to finish ahead of schedule.
‘The feedback from the customer has been fantastic. The project was kept under wraps to give everyone in the school a surprise when they came back from half-term, and we are still getting messages on emails and social media about how much people love the wall.’
