Cast or Calendared


What type of vinyl do you use?


WE USE ONLY THE BEST—PREMIUM CAST VINYL



In all our outdoor signage, we use cast vinyl as opposed to calendared vinyl. Why? Cast vinyl is the right choice for automobile and other exterior signs because of its dependable lasting power and conformability to contoured surfaces.


Cast vinyl film is created by mixing the necessary ingredients together into a liquid, then pouring the concoction out into a casting sheet to be heated in an oven. While in the oven, the solvents are removed and the result is a thin, durable film.


Another huge distinction between cast and calendared vinyl is the life expectancy of each. Since cast vinyl is manufactured very thoroughly during the mixing and heating stages, it holds up to UV rays and direct heat much better than calendared.
