Wherever there’s a need for highly opaque thin material able to screen the back light there comes an Ikonos blockout. The main purpose of it is to provide the possibility to enable the clear image perception of an image. The new self adhesive blockout foil – vinyl-free and high opacity is here.
It is highly practical and very useful. Applicable in many fields. Even if blockout is mainly associated with rollups, popups and POS expositions. Wherever there’s a need for highly opaque thin material able to screen the back light there comes an Ikonos blockout. The main purpose of it is to provide the possibility to enable the clear image perception of an image.
Generally it is not a problem if an image is attached to some hard surface such as a wall or a floor. However, the thing becomes more complicated if the print hangs freely and the light from behind ruins its reception.
The blockout is the general name of a group of plastics designed to block a light from passing through it
As in every problematic field, this one also is fortunately solved. The blockout is the general name of a group of plastics designed to block a light from passing through it. The idea behind the design is simple – it must contain some material that is able to absorb the light in order to increase its opacity. Usually, this part has a form of layer of black glue sandwiched between the sheets of plastic foil. The higher the number of layers – the bigger its opacity.
Blockouts – the composition of the top-quality PET or PP
All Ikonos blockouts are vinyl-free. Their composition of the top-quality PET or PP also makes the material highly durable and resistant. They are also free from curling effect which is the big problem with PVC products.
By choosing Ikonos blockout you choose high quality, reliability and the best material there is to work with.
