3M™ IJ180 vs 3M™ IJ280 Vinyl

Installed Graphics compares the two for you in one simple page.

Durability:

3M™ IJ180: Is a durable, cast vinyl film designed for long-term outdoor use. It has a lifespan of up to 10 years and is known for its resistance to UV radiation and tough weather conditions. It's has been a reliable choice for vehicle wraps and outdoor graphics for many years.
3M™ IJ280: IJ280 is another cast vinyl film from 3M, but it is generally considered to be less durable compared to IJ180. It's designed for medium-term applications and typically has a lifespan of around 5-7 years. While it's still a good choice for outdoor use, it may not be as long-lasting as IJ180.

Conformability:

3M™ IJ180: Is known for its excellent conformability, making it a preferred choice for wrapping vehicles and applying graphics to complex curves and contours. It can stretch and conform to irregular surfaces with ease.
3M™ IJ280: Offers good conformability, it may not be as flexible as IJ180. It's more suitable for flat or slightly curved surfaces. IJ280 tends to conform better at room temperature.

Adhesive:

Both films come with 3M's proprietary Controltac™ and Comply™ adhesive technologies, which help with ease of application and bubble-free installation. They allow for repositioning during application, which is especially important for large-scale graphics.

Finish Options:

Both IJ180 and IJ280 are available in a variety of finishes, including gloss, matte, and satin, to suit different design preferences.

Compatibility:

Both vinyl films are compatible with solvent, latex, and UV-curable ink systems, making them versatile choices for various printing methods.

Cost:

3M™ IJ180 is generally considered a premium product, and it tends to be more expensive than IJ280. The choice between the two may depend on your specific project requirements and budget constraints.

Conference Banners For Brand Awareness

Making a good impression at a business conference goes beyond the appearance of your employees. The way your business signage looks also makes a statement on how you want to be viewed by others. Conference banner graphics send a powerful message about your company. Professional banner installation helps increase brand awareness as well as conveys important information about your company. Build brand awareness with conference banners and get noticed!

Convention Banner Graphics Promote Your Service or Product

A convention banner graphic that includes your business name and logo will draw traffic to your booth or location. The convention banners come in a variety of shapes and sizes to make it easier to get the key points of your message across to others. A compelling message, combined with easy to read text and colors that are bold, are an effective way to deliver your message to others.

Plus, the convention banners are easy to transport so they can be moved to the stage if you are giving a speech or product presentation. Framing a stage with multiple banners reinforces your message while also giving conference attendees a visual image to go along with your spoken message.

Custom Banners Attract Attention Wherever You Go

Custom banner graphics at a conference or trade show is a polite way of telling others to “talk to me!” Our versatile banner installation methods mean your conference banner graphics can be placed on a table or floor as well as high above the crowd. Being able to easily spot your banner enables attendees to find the location of your table or room. They won’t get lost once you provide a banner to show them the way.
