Web tool simplifies wrap selection
An extra dimension has been added to Avery Dennison's website to help designers,
converters, and applicators of vehicle wraps and graphics choose the right material for the job. The on-line vehicle graphics product
selector is simple to use. First, choose the type of vehicle to be marked, then decide where on the vehicle the graphics are to be located, or whether an all-over vehicle wrap is required. Finally state the anticipated minimum durability. Once these baseline criteria have been established, it is easy to choose an appropriate material from the Avery Graphics range.
