Maizey Plastics will display its wide range of solutions for the signage industry at the Sign Africa Expo in Mbombela, taking place on 22 February at Emnotweni Arena in Mbombela, 9am-5pm.
A product highlight includes the Omega-Skinz wrapping film, a very soft flexible self-adhesive cast film that is 3D deformable with heat. Omega-Skinz deforms very easily in both concave and over convex surfaces, such as bulges and corners, kinks and indents of vehicles. It features extra colour depth and appearance. In addition, the film is less susceptible to overstretching when mounting onto large surfaces. The film does not shrink, has a long life and is designed for outdoor applications on smooth substrates, such as automotive, sign making, 2K paints, gel coatings, glass, as well as boats and super yachts.
Omega-Skinz consists of different layers that absorb the film tensions during stretching and deformation. The top layer is a transparent PVC film, which gives the bottom layer extra colour depth. Omega-Skinz wrapping film is cast as a 2-pass or 3-pass system, whereby the different layers eventually form one homogeneous layer. The result is a strong and stable film during application, which becomes very soft and supple when heated with a heat gun or infrared lamp. Both properties are ideal for large surfaces and complex shapes such as bumpers, spoilers and door handles.
