Durable and Functional Branding: High-Tack Vinyl for McArthur Supply’s Calcutta Coolers
At Mr. Postman Print Shop, we thrive on projects that combine technical expertise with creative design. One of our recent collaborations with McArthur Supply involved transforming Calcutta Renegade coolers into branded, functional assets. Using high-tack vinyl and custom finishes, we created a solution that’s as durable as it is visually appealing.
Why High-Tack Vinyl for Plastic Coolers?
Plastic coolers, like the Calcutta Renegade, present a unique challenge for vinyl adhesion. Their low surface energy (LSE) material makes it difficult for standard vinyl to stick securely. That’s where high-tack vinyl comes in:
- Superior Adhesion: Designed specifically for rough or low-energy surfaces, high-tack vinyl adheres tightly to plastic, ensuring it stays in place under all conditions.
- Durability: Perfect for outdoor and heavy-duty applications, this vinyl can withstand wear and tear from frequent use and exposure to the elements.
Custom Contour Cutting for a Perfect Fit
For this project, we custom contour-cut the vinyl to fit the cooler’s surface perfectly, including precise cuts around the two drink holders on the top. This attention to detail ensures the design integrates seamlessly with the cooler, providing a professional and polished appearance.
Textured Non-Slip Laminate: Form Meets Function
To finish the vinyl, we laminated it with a textured non-slip laminate. This specialized finish offers several benefits:
- Enhanced Durability: The laminate protects the printed vinyl from scratches, fading, and damage caused by UV exposure, ensuring the graphics stay vibrant over time.
- Non-Slip Surface: The textured finish adds grip, preventing items placed on top of the cooler—like drinks or food—from sliding around.
- Factory-Quality Look: The combination of high-tack vinyl and textured laminate gives the coolers a high-end, professional finish that looks like it came directly from the manufacturer.
A Cool Branding Solution
The finished coolers for McArthur Supply are not only functional but also serve as a unique branding tool. Whether they’re used at events, job sites, or outdoor gatherings, these coolers make a statement while showcasing McArthur Supply’s commitment to quality and attention to detail.
