Glossary

Vinyl: Vinyl adhesive is an opaque, self-adhesive product that can be printed in high definition on our production machines. It differs from paper adhesive in that it is solid and for outdoor use.

Trimmed: We cut out lettering or logo interiors. Once applied, the product is bottomless. It differs from transparent stickers, which are printed on transparent. There's always some material inside “0s”, for example.

Tape: Stabilized paper used to apply multi-part products at once. It covers the sticker and is intended to be removed and discarded after use.

Backing white: White layer of ink applied under the colors of your logo. This option is only available for transparent vinyl.

Mass tinted: The color is the same on the view side as on the adhesive side. It differs from printable vinyl, which is white on the printed side and gray on the adhesive side.

Tarpaulin: Synonymous with banderole, tarpaulin is a canvas coated on both sides with PVC and printable on one side. The back is white.

M1 Classification: Combustible, non-flammable. Certifies that, in the event of fire, a product is non-flammable and does not give off smoke.

Eyelet: High-strength plastic eyelet reinforces the hole through which the fastening system passes. We also quadruple the thickness of the tarpaulin at this point to guarantee very good resistance.

Crimping : Crimping is the operation that mechanically joins 2 parts together. Once the eyelet has been crimped, it cannot be dismantled and is highly resistant.

Hook tensioner: The hook tensioner is used to tension tarpaulins. The webbing is tough and waterproof. The painted steel hook makes it easy to attach and remove the banner. In high winds, we recommend the version with rilsan.

Rilsan: Synonymous with clamps or Colsons or Serre Flex, rilsan is a high-resistance plastic. Once the collar has been tightened, it must be cut to remove it. It becomes unusable.
