Jinan, the capital of Shandong Province in China, has been making strides toward a more sustainable and eco-friendly future. As part of their garbage classification initiative, the city sought to promote environmental awareness through creative and engaging vehicle branding. ACME Graphic was commissioned to produce custom collection truck decal for the city’s garbage classification

Project Overview

The goal was to design a decal that would not only be visually appealing but also deliver a clear message of environmental responsibility. The decal design features a friendly mascot, accompanied by the slogan “I love green,” reinforcing the city’s commitment to green initiatives and proper waste segregation.

Design Features

Slogan: The phrase “I love green” is prominently displayed, reinforcing the message of environmental responsibility. The use of bold and vibrant typography ensures visibility and impact, even from a distance.

Material Selection

ACME Graphic chose 3M vinyl material for the production of these decals. Plus our unique surface protection treatment. ACME vehicle decals offer superior performance in outdoor environments. Our vinyl graphic decals are ideal for the challenging conditions that garbage collection vehicles face.

Key Features of the Decals

Back Adhesive with Air Release Channels: The decals are with a back adhesive featuring air release channels. This innovative feature allows for fast and easy, bubble-free graphic installations. The air release channels ensure that installers can apply the decals smoothly and efficiently, without the risk of air pockets or imperfections.
Durability: The vinyl material ACME uses is UV resistant, ensuring the decals will maintain their vibrancy and integrity even after prolonged exposure to the sun, rain, and wind.
Ease of Installation: The air release channels not only make the application process quicker but also help prevent errors during installation, ensuring the decals are perfectly aligned and free of bubbles.

Implementation

The application process was completed quickly, allowing the trucks to get back into service without unnecessary delays. The high-quality finish ensured that the decals adhered firmly to the vehicles and remained intact through various weather conditions.

Conclusion

ACME Graphic’s custom decal for Jinan’s garbage classification vehicles has become a powerful marketing and educational tool, making a positive impact on the city’s waste sorting and environmental responsibility efforts.
