Why Choose Wall Wrap?

A highly versatile graphic solution that can create anything from immersive full-wall environments to bespoke cut graphics and feature branding.

✔ Ideal for logos, lettering and complex cut graphics
✔ Suitable for challenging surfaces including brick, concrete and textured walls
✔ Can be used for both full and partial wall coverage
✔ Flexible around sockets, switches, doors and other wall features
✔ Suitable for internal and external applications
✔ High-impact solution for branding and storytelling

Considerations

✖ Surface texture can influence the final appearance on some substrates
✖ Complex cut shapes may require additional installation time
✖ Large photographic designs may not achieve the completely seamless appearance of Rafa Canvas
✖ Installation requirements vary depending on wall condition and surface type

Why Choose Printed Frost?

The perfect balance between privacy, branding and natural light.

Printed frost combines the elegant appearance of etched glass with custom printed graphics, logos or patterns. It offers privacy while maintaining a light, open feel. EPL Films' frosted films are often used for manifestations, privacy screening and decorative glazing.

A sleek and modern glazing solution that adds branding and visual interest while maintaining maximum transparency and natural light.

Advantages

✔ Creates a modern, premium appearance
✔ Ideal for logos, branding and decorative graphics
✔ Preserves the open feel of a space

Advantages

✔ Complete privacy

Considerations

✖ Blocks light and visibility through glazed areas
