How Did the Wrap Industry Start?

The wrap industry started more than a century ago, with the discovery of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) as a plentiful waste product from early manufacturing processes in the early 20th century. Over the years, chemists from all over the world would experiment with PVC in the hopes of formulating it into a useful material. Fast forward the many decades since and we now have vinyl material that has been crafted with very specific properties that allow it to be used as a second-skin layer that brands, restyles, and protects vehicles. Made popular by its relative accessibility and propelled forward by digital printing and production methods, vinyl wraps can completely transform a vehicle in a matter of days.
