Creative designs with products and services printed on glass vinyl are a good marketing practice that will help to attract more customers.
The graphics printed on vinyl for a storefront are what we call storefront window graphics. The graphics are colorful and contrasting images and words that are representative from a type of business. Graphics can be food or drinks if our customer is a restaurant business; clothes on a retail store or many other businesses based on services offerend to the public.
Storefront window graphics are commonly temporary sales that invite to special events, discounted sales or the presentation of new products.
The main idea of a storefront glass wrap is to let people driving the store or walking in the parking lot what is happening on the business. Large storefront glass panels mae possible the visibility of the new products or season sales.
The type of vinyl used to print and apply on glass depends on the duration the vinyl needs to be on the glass, this means, if it is permanent or temporary.
The desired time that the sale or special store discount is schedule or for permanent product display.
Glass requires special vinyl material with a non-permanent adhesive. The removability of vinyl on glass requires experience.
No. 1 – Glass cannot be heated in only one area.
No. 2 – The vinyl cannot be pulled in a 90-degree direction.
No. 3 – The moment a customer decides to advertise or cover the glass with vinyl our customers are guided with the right information.
The most important terms to consider are durability or life expectancy, adhesive removability and need of a UV lamination and lamination finish, matte or gloss.
