ValuJet 203 Matte Water-Resistant Adhesive-Backed Poly

Matte Water-Resistant Adhesive-Backed Poly is a high-performing polypropylene media designed for demanding print environments where image quality, durability, and ease of application are critical. This product has been one of our top-selling materials since our company was founded due to its consistent performance and broad application range. The rigid polypropylene construction accepts heavy ink loads while maintaining exceptional resolution, tonal range, and sharp detail. Its matte surface outperforms traditional matte photo papers by reducing glare without sacrificing color density. The tear-resistant synthetic base makes this material easier to handle and apply than vinyl, especially on flat-mounted surfaces.

An improved permanent adhesive and PET liner system increases bond strength over time, ensuring reliable adhesion for signage, decals, and mounted graphics. The media is water-resistant and does not require lamination for indoor use. For outdoor applications, lamination is recommended to extend service life.

Compatible with aqueous ink systems using dye or pigment inks, this everyday matte polypropylene is an economical, professional solution for indoor signage and short-term outdoor displays.
