What Is 3MDI-NOC?
This innovative vinyl architectural film has been around for over 30 years as a cost-effective and sustainable way to give indoor and outdoor walls or surfaces a new look.

There are thousands of different finishes and textures of 3MDI-NOCto choose from, which means you can find a wallcovering that fits virtually every style and brand. It can be applied to almost any flat or three-dimensional surface, inside and out – you can even install it on rough or aging surfaces.
DI-NOCis made from polyolefin, a polymer (like resins or plastic) that doesn’t interact with any other chemicals and offers low VOC (volatile organic compounds) ratings to help keep air quality safe. Food manufacturing and healthcare facilities are great locations for this sterile and patient-safe wallcovering.
