ControlTac’s easy to apply air egress system, cast film conformability and forgiving adhesive formulation create a product that is fun & profitable to offer. All of this, in conjunction with the internationally known 3M name, has made it a popular choice for sign makers the world over.
Alternative, and competitive materials & laminates are also offered by Oracal, Avery, MacTac along with a host of other vinyl film manufactures. Please evaluate your own sign company’s needs and desires to provide products.
