VION films developed by William Smith have been a trusted part of the sign and graphics trade. From bold vehicle wraps to high-impact signage, installers and designers have relied on VION for affordable performance, consistent quality, and results they can trust. Now, the range is evolving with a fresh look and a new naming system designed to make life easier for sign makers. One of the most common requests from customers has been to simplify VION’s long film codes. William Smith has listened. The company has replaced the old numeric system with a new, smarter format designed to make ordering easier, faster, and clearer.
The new system is built for the way signmakers work, showing key information at a glance. The format follows a simple, logical structure: VP (VION Print) + Years of durability + Face finish + Adhesive type. For example: VP3G-C = 3-year gloss print film with a clear adhesive (formerly VP3000-01); VP3G-G = 3-year gloss print film with a grey adhesive (formerly VP3000-02); and VP3G-G VF = 3-year gloss print film with grey V-Flow adhesive (formerly VP3000-02VF); VP3M-G HT = 3-year matt print film with grey high-tack adhesive (formerly VP3900-12). Each part of the code provides practical details about the film’s performance: VP = VION Print; VL = VION Laminate; Number = Years of durability (3, 5, or 7); Finish = G for Gloss, M for Matte; Adhesive = G for Grey, C for Clear, R for Removable, VF for V-Flow, HT for High Tack. The result is a cleaner, more intuitive system that helps customers find the right film quickly without referring back to product tables or guides. (PHOTO: LFR)
