DONGGUAN, China – The 2025 Dongguan AIT Show, one of Asia’s premier automotive customization events, concluded on October 19th after a spectacular display of innovation and culture. Amidst the high-energy atmosphere of performance demos and dazzling show cars, CARLAS emerged as a standout innovator, capturing the industry’s attention with its launch of a groundbreaking self-healing TPU color change wrap and a versatile TPU film for digital printing.
Held at the Guangdong Modern International Exhibition Centre from October 17-19, the show was the perfect platform for CARLAS to demonstrate how its new materials are setting a new standard for durability, aesthetics, and creative freedom in the tuning and wrapping industries.
Unveiling the Future of Color: Self-Healing TPU Wrap Film
CARLAS’s new TPU color change wrap is engineered specifically for enthusiasts and professionals who refuse to compromise between stunning looks and ultimate protection. Moving beyond the limitations of traditional cast vinyl and PVC films, this advanced solution is built on a high-grade, aliphatic thermoplastic polyurethane base.
Key features that make it a game-changer include:
- Scratch Self-Repair Technology: Micro-marring and light scratches from daily wear and tear disappear with the application of mild heat, ensuring a flawless, show-ready finish is maintained effortlessly.
- Exceptional Durability: The film provides superior resistance against yellowing, chemicals, and UV damage, offering a robust protective layer that keeps the factory paint pristine.
- Vivid Aesthetics & Conformability: Available in a deep palette of rich colors and textures, the film boasts excellent stretch and flexibility, allowing for seamless application over complex body kits and aggressive wide-body fenders common in the tuning scene.
Unlocking Infinite Creativity: TPU Printable Material
Beyond pre-colored films, CARLAS showcased its revolutionary TPU substrate for digital printing, a product set to transform the custom graphics market. This innovation allows wrap shops and designers to print any high-resolution graphic, photorealistic image, or intricate brand logo directly onto the high-performance TPU base.
The result is a final product that combines limitless artistic potential with the durability and conformability of a premium paint protection film. This opens up new business opportunities for creating unique, durable, and complex designs for show cars, brand fleets, and personal vehicles.
