How it works
A printed sign that you can see through.
Perforated vinyl is a printed film full of tiny holes. From outside, the eye reads the print: your logo, a photo, a promotion, a whole wall of color. From inside, the holes win, and the glass looks lightly tinted with the street clearly visible. It is the window graphic you see on storefronts, clinics, gyms and buses.
It also blocks a good share of sun and glare and gives daytime privacy, so a ground-floor office gets signage and shade in one layer.
What changes
What perforated vinyl does
Signage without a sign
Every pane becomes an ad, a menu, a mural or a logo wall, at the size of the glass.
See out, not in
Staff and customers keep the view. The street sees the graphic.
Shade and glare control
The print blocks a large share of the sun, which cools the space behind it.
Easy to change
New promotion, new season, new brand: peel it off and put up the next one.
Good fit

The details
Artwork and printing
Send us your artwork, or tell us what the glass should say, and we handle the sizing, the print and the install. Perforated vinyl goes on the outside of the glass, aligned pane by pane so the image reads as one piece across the whole front.
