New graphic wrap for this Sprinter van, previously wrapped by Iconography a few years ago, was given an updated look with a new wrap at our facility in Los Alamitos, CA.
Sprinter vans are popular for a wide variety of businesses due to their versatility and extensive customization options for various trades, durability and reliability, strong fuel efficiency (especially diesel models), and advanced safety features. Their spacious, customizable interiors are ideal for mobile businesses, while the brand’s premium reputation, strong resale value, also contribute to their appeal for businesses.
Key Reasons for Sprinter Van Popularity
- Exceptional Customization: Sprinter vans are designed for upfitting, allowing businesses to customize the interior with shelving, refrigeration, specialized tools, and more to create mobile workshops or tailored cargo solutions.
- Durability and Reliability: Mercedes-Benz vans are known for high-quality craftsmanship, longevity, and the ability to log hundreds of thousands of miles with minimal maintenance, offering a strong long-term value.
- Fuel Efficiency: While some other large vehicles are less efficient, Sprinter vans, particularly the diesel models, offer relatively good fuel economy, making them a practical and cost-effective choice.
- Advanced Safety Features: Modern Sprinter vans come equipped with advanced safety systems, such as lane-keeping assist, blind-spot monitoring, and collision prevention systems, which enhance driver safety and well-being.
- Spacious and Comfortable Interior: The spacious interior can be outfitted for maximum cargo or passenger comfort, with features that make long journeys more pleasant for drivers and crew.
- Brand Prestige and Resale Value: The Mercedes-Benz brand carries prestige, which extends to its commercial vehicles, and the vans are known to hold their value well, contributing to a favorable return on investment.
- Versatile Models: With various models like Cargo Vans, Crew Vans, and Passenger Vans, there’s a Sprinter option available to fit the specific needs of different industries, from delivery and trades to shuttle services.
New Graphic Wrap and Specific Material for Sprinter Van
In order to effectively install a full wrap on a Sprinter van that includes fully covering the deep grooves in the side panels of the vehicle, a special vehicle wrap material is required. We only use 3M’s IJ380 with a special UV matching laminate by 3M as well. The standard 3M IJ180 vehicle wrap material, when used on Sprinter vans, would need to have the material cut out of the grooves when it is installed, as there simply isn’t enough surface area along the ridges of the grooves for the material to adhere. If this process is not done, the material will eventually lift and bubble over time, causing the wrap to fail. There is a slightly higher cost for the IJ380 material, but it really is the only option if you don’t want to have the white grooves of the vehicle cutting up your full wrap graphic.
You can see many examples of Sprinter van wraps on our website – this includes partial wraps, as well as wraps with the standard material that simply have the grooves cut out. You can see that this option will work with certain designs.
