At Graphteq, the quality of a vehicle wrap or custom decal starts long before installation. While design, printing and installation are critical steps, the vinyl material itself plays a huge role in durability, finish and overall performance.
That’s why we only work with industry-leading vinyl manufacturers known for reliability, colour consistency and long-term performance.
The three brands we trust most for vehicle wraps and custom decals are Orafol, 3M, and Avery Dennison.
Here’s a closer look at why these brands are considered the gold standard in the vehicle wrapping industry.
Orafol – Precision German Engineering
Orafol is well known in the signage and vehicle wrap industry for its ORAFOL and ORACAL vinyl ranges, which are engineered in Germany to deliver excellent performance and reliability.
Their wrap films are popular with installers thanks to features such as:
Outstanding conformability around curves and contours
Advanced air-release adhesive technology for bubble-free installation
Excellent colour consistency and print quality
Strong durability for Australian outdoor conditions
Orafol materials are often chosen for fleet branding, commercial vehicle graphics and custom wraps, where long-term performance is essential.
3M – Industry Innovation & Durability
3M has long been one of the most recognised names in the wrapping world. Their vinyl films are engineered with advanced technology designed to make installation smoother and ensure long-lasting results.
Key benefits of 3M wrap materials include:
Controltac™ adhesive technology for easy repositioning during installation
Comply™ air-release channels to reduce bubbles and wrinkles
Excellent conformability on complex vehicle surfaces
Proven long-term durability and UV resistance
Because of their reliability and ease of installation, 3M products are widely used for commercial fleets, full vehicle wraps and high-end custom graphics.
Avery Dennison – Premium Finish & Performance
Avery Dennison is another global leader in pressure-sensitive materials and wrap films. Their wrap vinyls are known for combining performance, flexibility and stunning finishes.
Some of the standout advantages include:
Easy Apply™ technology for smooth, bubble-free installation
Superior conformability for complex curves and deep channels
A wide range of premium colours and textures
Excellent removability when it’s time to update branding
Avery Dennison materials are often chosen for premium vehicle wraps, colour change wraps and high-detail graphics where both appearance and durability matter.
Why We Use Multiple Premium Brands
No two vehicle wrap projects are exactly the same. Different vehicles, surfaces, finishes and design requirements may call for different materials.
By working with multiple premium vinyl manufacturers, we can select the product that best suits:
The type of vehicle
The complexity of the installation
The desired finish or texture
The expected lifespan of the graphics
Using trusted brands like Orafol, 3M and Avery Dennison ensures every wrap or decal we install is built to look great and last.
Quality Materials + Expert Installation
Even the best vinyl in the world won’t perform properly without correct preparation and installation. That’s why our process includes:
Professional design and layout
High-quality printing and laminating
Precision cutting and preparation
Thorough vehicle cleaning and surface preparation
Expert installation by experienced wrap installers
The combination of premium materials and skilled workmanship ensures your vehicle branding stands out and withstands the elements.
