Comparing Film Types
Which film is right for your project? The right choice depends primarily on the application, surface, desired look and processing.
This overview helps you distinguish plotter films, car wrapping films, window films, decorative films and protective films.
The most important film types at a glance
Plotter films are particularly suitable for lettering, logos, labels and graphic designs. Car wrapping films are used for vehicle parts, accents and full or partial wraps.
Depending on the type, window films provide privacy, sun protection or decoration on glass. Decorative films transform the surfaces of furniture and interiors. Protective films are suitable wherever surfaces need additional protection.
Start with the application
Start by asking yourself whether you want to label, design, wrap, protect or alter glass surfaces.
Consider the surface
Glass, paintwork, plastic, furniture surfaces and walls have different requirements when it comes to the material and bonding.
