Why Must Car Wrappers Attend SEMA?

For professional wrappers, staying ahead in an evolving industry is a must. As the wrap industry grows, new challenges and profit lanes are constantly arising such as dry apply PPF. SEMA has established itself as the premier event worldwide for all things wrapping—tint, PPF, color change, coatings, tools, and more. It’s the ultimate platform for learning, networking, and discovering cutting-edge products. Here are several features of SEMA to consider so you can get the most out of this amazing show!

Crossover between Industries

One of the most impressive aspects of the wrap industry today is the way different industries—detailing, window tint, PPF, and color change—have blended together. The crossover of tools, techniques, and innovations between these sectors has elevated the quality of work across the board. Wrappers now have access to the best techniques from each field, pushing the boundaries of what’s possible and improving overall industry standards. The SEMA show encompasses all these mediums, primarily in the West Hall. This means you can spend a full day there and get a year’s worth of information, connections and inspiration.

Networking Opportunities

Networking is key for growth, and SEMA is the go-to place for wrappers to connect with industry leaders, manufactures and distributors.. Events like the popular Avery Dennison party and the legendary WWWrap event provide unique opportunities to build relationships, exchange ideas, and enjoy an adult beverage amongst friends and colleagues. These connections can propel your business and expand your professional network. A good tip is to register for these parties well in advance as they can sell quickly.

Discover New Products

SEMA is where companies debut their latest tools and materials, making it the best place to discover innovations in the wrap industry. This year, the spotlight is on the new Sensor Cutter Pro and dry apply PPF.

Sensor Cutter Pro

The SensorCut Pro allows installers to wrap and cut out bumper sensors on vehicles without having to use a knife on the body of the vehicle. This two piece set can help lower install times by up to 90% and reduce damage on the sensor area to zero. This tool was designed by The Wrap Institute and XIX3D.

Dry Apply PPF

Top brands like Hexis, LLumar, GSWF, Inozetek, and 3M will showcase new dry apply PPF products, revolutionizing the way we think about protection films in wrapping. SEMA gives wrappers the chance to see these groundbreaking products firsthand.
