Advertising on a car and decorating it with wrapping foil – is it eco-friendly? The question is very important. Especially that ecology matters these days very much. As always, the answer depends on what criteria we take to try to answer the question.

The properly wrapped car is much less vulnerable for rust, scratches, color fading. Generally it ages much slower. The thin layer of foil can save a lot of car’s body working to bring our motor back to its original glory.

Especially over the long period of time, the lower number of car repairs benefits the environment. The production of paint, solvents and their application is very impactful on the nature. Therefore, even if the car foil are cast vinyls, they are the most gentle choice we can make. 

The best long term effect you achieve with two layer system – wrap plus lamination foil.
