— Roy Wraps, Owner, Chicago Fleet Wraps

CFW’s Approach

CFW is the only Illinois-certified installer applying HP Latex wraps to all commercial vehicle types from cargo vans to 26 ft box trucks, Rivian EDVs to refrigerated trailers, as of 2026. The HP Latex 800 printing system combined with Avery Dennison MPI 1105 cast vinyl produces fade-resistant graphics rated for 5–7 years in Chicago’s climate — including the −27°F polar vortex range and road salt conditions from November through April.

Common Myth

“Any shop can produce the same quality results.”

The Fact

HP Latex certification, Avery Dennison certification, and 3M certification are not marketing claims — they are training programs with installation standards and material requirements. CFW holds all three certifications. Most shops hold none. Certification status directly predicts warranty claim rates: CFW’s 2.1% claim rate is the industry benchmark.
