Solutions for all transferable vinyls
Sign makers have countless possibilities to create their vinyl graphics. There are many kinds of self adhesive vinyl and different ways of creating a vinyl graphic.
Cut VINYL
Self adhesive vinyl sheets can be cut in different shapes with a plotter machine. These shapes are called vinyl decals. Our transfer tapes just stick enough to pick up the vinyl decal and to transfer it safely onto any surface.
Without a transfer tape it’s impossible to transfer the decal properly.

PRINTED VINYL
Vinyl sheets can also be multi colour printed. In some cases after print, it’s also cut in certain shapes so again you need a transfer tape to get the decal onto a surface.
BUBBLE-FREE VINYL
Bubble free vinyl was created to reduce, guess what ‘bubbles’. The liner has a certain structure that
creates tiny air tunnels in the adhesive layer of the vinyl. These air tunnels help prevent bubbles during applications. A regular paper or film transfer tape doesn’t adhere well to these structured liners, so for this application you need a special transfer tape - AirMask.
