Why Make the Switch to PVC-Free Clear Film?

For years, clear window films and overlaminates relied heavily on PVC. While effective, traditional vinyls come with edge shrinkage over time and complex disposal requirements. The GPT PP-CLR EPH changes the game by combining high-end optical clarity with a green footprint:

  • 100% Free of PVC, Phthalates & Halogens: Completely eliminates harmful synthetic compounds.
  • Zero Edge Shrinkage & High Stability: Polypropylene (PP) provides outstanding dimensional stability—no peeling edges, stretching, or unwanted curling after installation.
  • Clear Finish: Perfect for glass graphics, window displays, architectural decorations, and surface protection.
  • Universal Ink Compatibility: Engineered to work with Eco-Solvent, Latex, and UV inkjet systems.
  • Permanent Acrylic Adhesive: Ensures a firm bond across smooth interior and short-to-medium-term outdoor surfaces.

Eco-Conscious Manufacturing from the European Union

Produced at IKONOS’s state-of-the-art facility in Europe, the film is manufactured under strict environmental controls with zero Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) emissions during production. By switching from traditional PVC film to polypropylene, print shops can directly reduce their carbon footprint and provide their clients with certified sustainable print media.
