We use genuine "ContraVision®" material. Contra vision one-way film is a special perforated self-adhesive vinyl for window graphics. Once it is digitally printed with your message and installed you can see out but people can't see in clearly. One way vision film is a very cost-effective way to increase privacy with the added benefit of using free space to promote your business.

perforated contra vision window graphic, see out while providing privacy from outside eyes

High impact window graphics that are see-through also have the added benefit of reducing heat and glare from the sun. This can reduce interior temperatures and reduce the need for air conditioning. These graphics also allow for glass manifestation. This means the glass is more visible and reduces the likelihood of accidents. It can also be used on industrial and corporate buildings with high levels of glass to add visibility and reduce the likelihood of bird strikes.

These incredibly versatile graphics are used for a wide range of solutions. They can be used in schools to replace the need for blinds or curtains and add security from the streets. They are also very popular for use on busses and other vehicles to allow passengers to still see out but also allow you to make the most of all available branding space.

Graphics printed on perforated window films tend to look less vibrant than those printed on solid vinyl because 40% of the window vinyl is missing due to the perforation process. A laminate can be added which can have a few benefits. A gloss laminate can enhance the graphics appearance, increase the lifespan of the graphic and make it easier to remove in the future.

Application Instructions


For small-scale applications such as doors or windows, our window films can be easily installed by one person. For large-scale applications such as full office fronts or buses then fitting specialists may be required.

One way vision film perforated vinyl can be installed using a few simple tools and following some basic rules window graphics are easy to apply and remove. To begin, clean your surface from dust and grease with soap and water or application fluid. Dry your surface and use a squeegee to stick down your vinyl.

Limitations: Use on flat or gently curved surfaces only. The film must not touch rubber window moulding. Do not overlap panels, if two panels meet then trim the film to form a butt seam.

Whether you're a novice or a professional when it comes to artwork, we're here to give you the guidance needed to make sure your end result is print perfect.

I don't have print ready artwork, can you design it for me?

If you have the elements, such as text, logos, and text, we can take these and create a print ready design layout for you at a small additional cost. We have a number of affordable set price packages available to suit any requirements. Many of our products have a design service as an additional extra for instant ordering. For products that don't please contact us to discuss your brief. Visit our in-house design service page to find out more.

I will be supplying print ready artwork.

Many of our print products have the option to upload your artwork on the product page. If that option is not available, you will receive an email shortly after placing your order with instructions on how to send your artwork files.

In order to avoid any delays in production, please follow our guidelines below to make sure your artwork is ready to go. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to get in touch to talk to one of our team.

Resolution - 100dpi At Full Size

Generally, 100 dpi is a good standard for images with the document size set at full size of the large format printed product. For example, if you want to order a 40"×60" print, the image size should be 4000 pixels (40 x 100) by 6000 pixels (60 x 100) at 100 dpi.

100% scale at 100 dpi
50% scale at 200 dpi
25% scale at 400 dpi
10% scale at 1000 dpi

If any dimension of the product is greater than 5000mm, please produce the artwork to scale. For very large artwork such as hoarding walls, 10% scale can be utilised at 1000dpi for images, or use vectors as these will scale perfectly.

Bleed - 5mm All Around At The Final Print Size

If you are creating set size artwork for hardware then please use the product template. If you have ordered a custom size product please ensure you include 5mm of bleed on your design.

You only need to add print bleed to your artwork if the design extends to the edge of the page. If all of your text and images are in the centre of the design and are surrounded by a plain white background, you won’t need to worry about print bleed as the edges will blend seamlessly into your overall design. If any element of the design goes right up to the edge of the page, a 5mm bleed on all sides is necessary.

Instructional diagram for print design showing the process of adding a 5mm bleed to artwork for printing, with stages including initial layout with crop marks, designated trim line, and the final trimmed sign, emphasizing the necessity of bleed for designs extending to the page edge.

Colours - Please Supply All Colours As CMYK+

Computer screens use RGB, while printers use CMYK. You may ask why this matters? Most colours created in RGB can be closely matched in CMYK but some cannot. If colours are critical we always suggest ordering a printed proof.

Other things you can do to check your colours:

- Use a calibrated monitor (colours vary from monitor to monitor)
- Use a printed CMYK colour swatch to check your colours
- Don't check samples from a desktop printer
- Order a printed proof from us (this may cause an increase in lead time)

Fonts - Please Embed, Flatten, Or Convert To Curves

For large format print, we recommend that the minimum font site is 8pt (point size).

Our preferred file format for print-ready artwork is a PDF, please make sure you embed any fonts for perfect results. With other file formats please ensure fonts used in your design are converted to outlines and include all fonts and images used when you send your files to us.

Do You Need A Proof?

If you are providing print ready artwork, we do not provide a proof as standard, which enables us to get your print to you quicker. If you require a proof please get in touch with us to discuss. We do provide a free technical file check as standard, as outlined below.

We can provide a machine print proof for the extra cost of £25 plus delivery. This involves printing an A3 proof on the machine that will be used to produce your final print. This will give you an accurate representation of colour. If you are using our design service, we do send out a PDF proof, which is an accurate representation of content and positioning. It is not an exact indicator of the final colour due to the limitations of screens.

Quoted delivery dates for print are from approval of artwork, so please bear in mind that requesting a proof may delay the delivery date of your product.

Delivery

After you have placed your order a provisional despatch and delivery date will be sent to you via email.

Our standard delivery time for printed products is 2-5 working days after artwork has been approved for print. If you have a specific deadline, please contact us to ensure we can meet this. Please check that your artwork meets the guidelines above to prevent any delays in approval.

Free Artwork Check

Before we go to print, we will carry out a free technical check on your artwork. If there are any issues, we will contact you to let you know what needs to be changed.

Colour Matching

Our printers and media are of the highest standard and are carefully calibrated to produce vibrant, full colour prints. The process involves CMYK printing and this means it is not always possible to match Pantone colours, but they will be converted to the nearest CMYK equivalent.

If exact colour matching is critical, please send us a physical copy of other printed material, such as a letterhead or brochure, and we will check your file prior to printing. If we cannot achieve a reasonable match we will call you to discuss.

Please send any physical examples to: Discount Displays, 31-35 Wortley Road, Croydon, Surrey, CRO 3EB.

Do you use genuine Contra Vision?
Yes, we use the original branded media for the quality of adhesion and superb print results.

What is the expected lifespan?
It has a lifespan of 2+ years. Designed for outdoor use, your perforated window sticker is made with durable vinyl and printed with latex inks.

Do these perforated stickers offer sun protection?
Yes, they reduce glare, UV absorption, and solar heat gain within buildings by creating a tinted window effect.

Do they work at night?
If there is a light on inside the building and it is dark outside then Contra Vision stickers are less effective at obscuring the view into the building. Your decal may appear washed out or allow two-way visibility.

Can I see out?
Absolutely. Contra Vision stickers are stuck to the outside of your window. The unique feature of Contra Vision is the perforations which allow you to see through the decal from the inside.
