What is Omega-Skinz?
Omega-Skinz is a very soft flexible self-adhesive cast film that is 3D deformable with heat. Omega-Skinz deforms very easily on both concave and convex surfaces, such as bulges and corners, kinks, and indents of vehicles.
Multi-Cast system
Omega-Skinz is produced according to the reusable casting principle. In this case, the film is placed back in the machine after casting, in order to obtain a second casting layer.Easily deformable with heat
Ideal on boats and superyachts, because the film is more stable. When the film is heated to 40-50 degrees Celsius, it is as soft as butter.
More colour depth
In this way, we achieve extra colour depth and appearance. In addition, the film is less susceptible to overstretching when mounting onto large surfaces.Improved features
Omega-Skinz does not shrink, it has a long life and is designed for outdoor applications on smooth substrates, such as automotive and 2K paints, gel coatings, glass, etc.
Where is it produced?
Where is it produced?The films are produced in the Grafityp factory in Houthalen (Belgium). The already famous Omega-Skinz film studio and the Omega-Skinz training center are also located here.
How did Omega-Skinz come to be?
The Joint venture between SOTT and Grafityp
The basis is to be found with SOTT International B.V., located in the Netherlands. SOTT is known for its expertise, practical knowledge, innovativeness, marketing skills, and creativity. Since 2008 they have been developing special films themselves. SOTT does not have its own manufacturing facility but has its products made at renowned factories such as Grafityp.
In 2020 SOTT approached Grafityp with a very special and ambitious plan. A plan for the future that would turn the entire wrapping industry upside down. Everything had to be different. Out-of-the-box thinking towards distributors, wrappers, and customers would have to be elementary. SOTT developed all the plans and put them on the table, and they were received with enthusiasm.
The result is that two unique companies, each with their own skills, have entered into a joint venture to make the perfect product. Grafityp is responsible for production and quality, while SOTT Colourbrain (the creative department) is responsible for the development, marketing, trends, and colours. Both have their own distribution channels but they support each other with sales and service.What makes Omega-Skinz different from all other brands?
Omega-Skinz is not just a roll of wrapping film in a nice colour.
Omega-Skinz is a concept, a style, and an image.
Even down to the smallest details, quality is apparent.
How is Omega Skinz constructed?
Omega-Skinz wrapping film is constructed in a different way than many conventional films. Omega-Skinz consists of different layers that absorb the film tensions during stretching and deformation. The top layer is a transparent PVC film, which gives the bottom layer extra colour depth. Omega-Skinz wrapping film is cast as a 2-pass or 3-pass system, whereby the different layers eventually form one homogeneous layer.
The result is a strong, stable film during the application, which becomes very soft and supple when heated with a heat gun or infrared lamp. Both properties are ideal for large surfaces and complex shapes such as bumpers, spoilers, and door handles.
Omega-Skinz goes much further than people think.
