3M Reflective Film Wrap 

3M (St. Paul, MN) has developed Scotchlite™ Print Wrap Film 780mC-10R.
Engineered with wider retro-reflective viewing angles, the film's main
advancement over previous reflectives lies in its increased conformability
and self-healing properties, according to 3M. The film is designed for
repositioning, elongation and conforming without severe bruising, the
company says.
3M is also offering Controltac™ Print Film 40C-114R. This latest
addition to the Film 40-C series is versatile, removable - and now clear.
The film can be used to expand design options with knockouts or to vary
light transmission and translucency with color gradients. And it provides
the slideability, tack and snap-up. The film is designed for fast, easy,
bubble-free application.

Laminators Inc. Composite Panels

Laminators Inc. (Hatfield, PA) has introduced Omega-Bond® Premium,
a line of solid core aluminum composite panels designed specifically for
fabrication applications. The product features a 0.012-inch aluminum skin
thickness and higher-quality plastic core for fabricated projects, providing
structural strength and allowing 3D shapes to be achieved without an
inner support or frame. The product is specially treated for optimal flatness
before and after bending, by taking out all possible tension/stress from
the panel itself. The solid polyethylene core has fewer impurities and
less recycled content, which
allows for bending and cutting
without breaking the core during
the fabrication process. Applications include architectural
signage, exhibition stands, fascias,
canopies, long-term signage,
directional/informational signage,
scoreboards and billboards. The
product is available in twosided white in 4 x 8- and 5 x
10-ft. sheets.
