Avery Dennison digital media - making your media choices easy

Whether you’re printing large format print every day, or just about to start, you may be looking for ways to streamline your processes and make your print room work smart. Many factors contribute to producing the best prints for your customers and by making the right choices around the media and lamination film you use, you can stay right on track.

But with so many digital media options, how do you know you’re making the right choice? Here, we take a closer look at Avery Dennison digital print media and discover a smart way to achieve a smooth-running print room whilst saving time and money too…

How to choose the right media for your application

There are many Avery digital products that can be used across a number of application types. Products such as Avery Dennison MPI 2800 Digital Gloss White HOP and Avery Dennison MPI 2001 Digital Gloss White Removable can be used for multiple applications - indoor and outdoor signage, vehicle graphic panels and window graphics. These types of products may be perfect for many of the print jobs you produce.

For more specialist applications, such as vehicle wraps and apolar substrates, it’s time to turn to specifically designed digital media products. Avery Dennison manufacture many printable vehicle wrap products, which are designed to conform and apply easily to surfaces with rivets and corrugations.

Difficult slightly structured and apolar substrates can be easily tackled with Avery Dennison MPI 3026 Digital Matt Supertack, which has a Supertack adhesive, giving more reliable adhesion.

How long do Avery digital products last after application?

Durability is also a big consideration when choosing large format digital media. Your customer may be looking for their print to be used for ‘as long as possible’, or they may only need a temporary solution. A number of durability options can be found in the Avery digital media range - from 6 months (Avery DOL 5900 Floor Lamination Film) to 6 years (Avery MPI 1105 EARS Super Cast Vehicle Wrap) and 10 years (Avery SP 1504 Easy Apply PVC-Free Wrapping Film).

Should digital prints always be laminated?

Laminating digital prints adds much needed protection from all sorts of environmental factors, such as scratches, dirt and UV damage. Laminating helps the prints last to their full potential and can also help to make prints look more vibrant. Lamination is strongly recommended for these reasons.

Simplify your digital media choices…

To make it even easier to achieve the best possible print results with Avery Dennison digital media, digital and laminate bundles are the perfect choice. Digital bundles are made up of a roll of printable media and a roll of lamination film – matched specifically to be used together.

Why choose a digital media bundle? There are many advantages to choosing Avery Dennison digital bundle products…

Bundle products are more cost effective than buying print and laminate products separately.	Using the matched digital media and lamination products helps to achieve the best possible print and expected durability results.	It’s easier to keep on top of stock levels – the stock will be used at the same time, so the same amount will be left, then you can simply re-order.
