Recycling Kiosk & Can Kart Wraps
Custom vinyl wraps for interactive recycling kiosks at a Denver arena and a giant can-shaped go-kart, wrapped for an experiential fabrication partner.
About the Job
What they needed
An experiential fabrication shop builds one-off pieces for brand activations. They needed someone who could wrap the strange shapes they build: claw-machine recycling kiosks headed for an arena concourse, and a go-kart built to look like a giant drink can.
The scope
Printed wraps covering the kiosk cabinets on every side, around screen surrounds, prize windows and recycling slots, plus a full printed wrap on the curved body and lid of the can kart.
What we used
The kiosks are 3M IJ180 with 8518 gloss laminate. The can kart is printed on 3M 2080 silver metallic and laminated with 8518, so the metallic shows through the print like a real can.
The hard part
Nothing here is a flat panel. The kiosks have stainless trim, cutouts and doors that all need clean edges, and the can kart is a long cylinder where the print has to wrap the full curve and line up at the seam without distorting the design.
The site
Wrapped at the fabricator's shop, then the kiosks went to work in a Denver arena.
The result
Pieces that look manufactured, not covered. If it can be built, it can be wrapped.
