Avery Dennison DOL 1400 Z Series
Avery Dennison's cast protective overlaminates for printed wrap films: 30-micron clear cast vinyl in gloss, lustre and matt finishes with a 6-year rated vertical durability — specified from the EU product data sheet issued March 2025.
What it is
Ultra-flexible cast vinyl overlaminates designed to protect digitally printed images on vehicle graphics: 30-micron clear cast face film (50 microns with adhesive) with permanent acrylic adhesive, in three finishes — DOL 1460 Z Gloss, DOL 1470 Z Lustre and DOL 1480 Z Matt. Avery Dennison's MPI 1105 documents name the 1460 Z and 1480 Z as that film's recommended protection.
Who it may be relevant for: Wrap and signage producers laminating printed cast films — the protective half of a print-film-plus-overlaminate system, applied by roll laminator or squeegee per Avery's application guidance.
UK market notes
- Same manufacturer-named UK distributor network as the MPI films (Avery Dennison's own EU-site news page names the UK distributors; a find-a-distributor locator exists) — confirm current stocking with a listed distributor.
- Roll widths and lengths are not stated on the fetched data sheet; the numeric application-temperature guidance is deferred by the data sheet to Avery's technical bulletin TB 5.4, which was not fetched.

Documented compatibility
- Avery Dennison MPI cast print films (incl. MPI 1105) — the DOL data sheet recommends these overlaminates for Avery MPI cast media; the MPI 1105 documents name the 1460 Z/1480 Z specifically.
Limitations
- Roll formats are unpublished on the fetched data sheet.
- Numeric application-temperature guidance lives in Avery technical bulletin TB 5.4, which was not fetched — consult it before application-critical decisions.
- Durability ratings are Avery's, under stated vertical middle-European conditions.
