ASLAN, the German developer and manufacturer of self-adhesive films, is expanding its portfolio of digital printing media with another speciality film: MonsterTack. Aslan DFP 05 is a white, glossy self-adhesive film that sticks securely even to the most difficult surfaces and under the toughest conditions.

| Aslan's new MonsterTack DFP05 has advanced adhering powers on rough surfaces and at low temperatures |
The core element of MonsterTack Aslan DFP 05 is the solvent gas and lubricating oil resistant adhesive formula. It is this that makes the film adhere to surfaces which would usually be too problematic. Examples of this are applications on plywood panels of box trailers, often equipped with a dirt-repellent surface; construction, agricultural and industrial machines subject to extreme dirt and mechanical stress; petrol pumps, powder- coated surfaces and low-energy substrates; ABS plastics, Moto-Cross vehicles, caravans & campers.
MonsterTack Aslan DFP 05 supplements the UltraTack films DFP 06, 07 and 08, which are already established on the market. It is also suitable for bonding on rough surfaces inside and outside. Special benefits of note: It can be attached to flat or slightly curved surfaces from temperatures as low as -10° C and it lasts up to 7 years outdoors.
The polymer film can be printed with solvent, eco-solvent, latex and UV curable inks, as well as screen printing inks. Despite its extremely strong permanent adhesive, it can be removed from low-energy substrates and steel without leaving any residue. Additionally, the self- adhesive film is classified to salt spray test ISO 9227:2017.
