Viking rolls out new 3M products

Tapes, adhesives and sealants specialist Viking Industrial Products has announced the launch of two new 3M products aimed at the sign and point-of-sale markets.

LSE 110WF VHB and GPT020 double coated polyester are both now available from Viking, which is one of only 10 companies in the UK to hold preferred distributor status from 3M.

Craig Smith, technical manager at Viking, says the versatility of the new 3M products means the company will be able to replace a number of higher priced alternatives.

“They are purpose-designed to be cost-effective ‘go to’ products suitable for both LSE and HSE surfaces.”

Viking has partnered with long-standing customer, sign and display fabricator Exhibit House, to trial the two new products.

Lee Horner, managing director of Exhibit House, says: “GPT020 is now our number one choice for use on Foamex, on which I have always had variable results. However, this new 3M product has a great initial grab, holds well and is competitively priced. It now becomes my go to product.
 
“Tests on the LSE110WF are ongoing, but again its high initial grab, ease of use and comparative low cost suggest it will be our staple High Bond tape moving forward. 

“These two new 3M products, allied to Viking’s excellent technical back-up, will continue to give peace of mind.”
