Renolit has released a new calendered film with Solarmour technology, designed to improve fuel economy on vehicle wraps and reduce the soak temperature on self-adhesive applications including vending machines and facades as well as vehicles including ships.

Solarmour reflects the majority of the sun's infrared energy to reduce the surface temperature of film surfaces by 29˚F compared to the standard formulation, to increase the film's longevity and durability.

Renolit states Solarmor films can be processed in the same way as conventional films, manufactured in gloss or embossed surfaces, and are available in opaque polymeric and 'smoked clear' formulations. They can work for films of thicknesses from 60 microns and above.

"With lower energy consumption and a higher durability, this new technology can help save resources and energy," says Laura Schied, marketing manager, Renolit. "It is the next generation of high-performance films for vehicle wraps and opens up numerous opportunities for other applications."
