New Jersey-based full service printing business Acu-Print Corp. recently used Drytac ReTac Textures Linen film to create stunning printed wall murals to help transform the Cumberland County Improvement Authority interior office space.
Founded in 1986 by husband-and-wife team Dennis and Arlene Feaster, Acu-Print Corp. operates as a reprographic shop with a diverse offering. The company works with customers on everything from scanning, copying and archiving to large-format print, T-shirt printing and graphic design.
In recent times, Acu-Print Corp. has witnessed a marked rise in demand for its large-format print services, with printed mural work proving particularly popular with one customer. The client in question – the Cumberland County Improvement Authority – contacted Acu-Print Corp. about creating murals for a new county office building.
The brief for this project was a fairly open one for Acu-Print Corp., with the company given the task of producing murals that highlighted the Cumberland County Improvement Authority’s accomplishments, both past and present. The idea of this was to refresh the interior of the offices with something other than traditional portraits of past directors and politicians.
With this in mind, Acu-Print Corp. chose to work with Drytac’s ReTac Textures Linen, an embossed wallcovering film ideal for creating eye-catching graphics for home, business, retail and display environments, which was supplied by approved Drytac partner Lindenmeyr Munroe.
Stand-out features of the material include 6 mil (150µ) polymeric self-adhesive vinyl with ReTac ultra-removable adhesive backing, allowing it to be easily removed and repositioned when required. While Acu-Print Corp. used the product in a linen finish, it can also be supplied in sand, canvas and, woodgrain finishes.
Acu-Print Corp. printed the mural in-house on its Mutoh 1608 solvent hybrid printer and installed the piece at the client’s office building.
“I selected this product because I was confident that the quality of material was superior to other brands,” Acu-Print Corp. co-founder Dennis Feaster said. “It was such a hit that the same client ordered four more murals soon after.”
