“Legendary Summer Special” Allows Graphic Designers to Stretch Material Dollars While Upgrading to Heavy-duty Gator® Boards

Mooresville, North Carolina—3A Composites USA is pleased to announce a “Legendary Summer Special” pricing promotion on select 3/16-inch thick Gatorfoam® and Gatorplast® graphic display boards.

Now through Sept. 30, reduced pricing will be available on the following 3/16-inch thick Gator® products:

* Gatorfoam Bright White 48-inch-by-96-inch sheets in the carton or bulk

* Gatorfoam Bright White 60-inch-by-120-inch sheets in the carton or bulk

* Gatorplast White 48-inch-by-96-inch sheets in the carton.

This “Legendary Summer Special” is tied to 3A Composites’ “Legends of Mythology” marketing communications campaign in which members of the graphic display industry are encouraged to “Design on an Epic Scale.” The “Legends of Mythology” campaign features bold images of mythological gods, who represent the unique attributes of each of the company’s graphic display boards.

Gatorfoam is represented in this campaign by Greek mythology’s Medusa, who possessed the power to turn into stone anyone that she gazed upon. Similarly, that kind of rigidity is possessed by Gatorfoam, the original heavy-duty graphic display board that consists of polystyrene foam bonded between two layers of wood-fiber veneer laminate. This unique construction makes Gatorfoam rigid yet lightweight and warp-resistant; its surface also is exceptionally smooth and strong.

Gatorplast, another tough member of the Gator product line, is comprised of extruded polystyrene foam bonded between two layers of high-impact polystyrene cap sheets. These smooth, high-impact facers resist warping and allow for vinyl graphics to be repositioned. No surface priming or pre-coating is required for screen-printing. Additionally, lightweight Gatorplast is water-resistant.

“We’re pleased to offer graphic designers this opportunity to upgrade to the industry’s leading heavy-duty graphic display board at special reduced pricing,” said Joseph N. Masters, marketing manager, graphic display, 3A Composites USA. “We know that many fabricators are continuing to struggle as the economy slowly recovers. This summer pricing promotion not only allows them to stretch their material dollar but to increase the quality of their graphic displays by incorporating heavy-duty Gator products as substrates.”

Graphic designers are encouraged to contact their local distributors for pricing information. A list of distributors is available on-line at www.GraphicDisplayUSA.com.
