POS and Poster Printing Innovation. Clean up your act with Static Cling.

 

If you buy point of sale items such as printed posters or window/product stickers, you may well be interested in this great product innovation.

Traditional paper-printed posters have been around since the ark (if not, before) and are a totally effective communications materials and a really cost-effective method of getting your message across. But there are sometimes downsides. The tape or blu-tac we use to put them up can mark the walls/windows. They can also be tricky to apply and rely on the skills of staff to be able to get them right first time. And when they need to be moved or changed around, they can rip and leave mess behind.

What’s the solution?
Well how about a poster or sticker that sticks to just about any surface for up to a couple of years without using adhesive? That can be placed without wrinkles or air bubbles by even the clumsiest of staff? And if it’s in the wrong place, it can be simply picked up and repositioned just as easily without leaving any mess whatsoever.

It’ll stick on glass, walls, ceilings, wood, screens – pretty well any material you care to mount it on.
