At Advertising Vehicles, we don’t shy away from complex projects. Instead, we embrace them as opportunities to showcase our skill and innovation. Our work with Velux, an international skylight and roof window manufacturer, is a testament to our ability to handle intricate designs and deliver exceptional results.
Velux approached us with a unique request for their van wrap. They wanted a design that incorporated multiple colors and finishes, each serving a distinct purpose in the overall aesthetic. While many of our competitors may not have the expertise to tackle such a project, our team saw this as an exciting opportunity to demonstrate just what we could do.
The Vehicle Wrap Process
When working with Advertising Vehicles, you have an entire team of fleet graphics professionals dedicated to your project. Once Velux decided to wrap their 2023 Mercedes Sprinter van in a stunning tri-color design, the Advertising Vehicles team jumped into action to tackle the project.
Our team was able to take the design from Velux and make it come to life with the diligent work of our design and project management team. We were able to find vinyl that accurately reflected their brand colors and sent two press proofs to confirm that these colors were exactly what Velux wanted.
A Variety of Vinyl for Velux
Velux provided an eye-catching design that incorporated three different types of 3M vinyl:
IJ180CV3 with 8520 Matte Overlaminate (Grey and Black): This combination provided sleek, modern base colors for the van. The matte finish added a sophisticated touch, ensuring the vehicle would stand out on the road without a glaring sheen.
IJ180CV3 with 8518 Gloss Overlaminate (Red): For the bold red elements, we used a gloss laminate to make the color pop. This high-contrast choice created a striking visual impact, drawing attention to key branding elements.
3M 680 CR-10 (White Text and Door Logos): Reflective vinyl was used for the white text and logos on the doors. This material ensures high visibility both day and night, enhancing brand recognition and safety.
With matte, gloss, and reflective vinyl finishes on the van, it was crucial that the installation process went exactly to plan. The team had to perfect the placement of the vinyl panels to ensure that the layering looked seamless and place the reflective decals in the exact spot to replicate the client’s desired look accurately. The installation team at Advertising Vehicles did a phenomenal job ensuring that the vehicle wrap followed the layout perfectly. Check out the process in the animation below!
