2.1 Selecting the ideal protection film for the project 

The textured matt substrate of the product required a protection film with a particular level of tackiness: a sufficient tackiness to adhere sufficiently to withstand friction from moving parts during transport, yet crucially, leave zero adhesive residue upon removal by the customer. 

Leveraging our deep expertise in adhesives and materials, we swiftly identified a suitable protection film that performed exceptionally on the matt substrate. We were able to dispatch the first prototypes the very next day after receiving the initial enquiry. 

2.2 Designing a Custom Die-Cut Component 

As with all our projects, we dedicated time to fully understand the customer's specific challenges and identify opportunities to add significant value to their processes and final product, building these insights into the part design. 

Collaborating closely with the customer, we pinpointed a small window within their existing manufacturing process where the die-cut protection film could be applied. We then added features into the design to enable effective and accurate application of the part in just seconds, ensuring no risk of delays to the production line.   

To perfectly conform to the product's complex geometry, we divided the protection film into a small number of sections. We also incorporated additional design features to guarantee optimal and complete surface coverage with every application.
