Bracknell, UK, 8 November 2013 – Original covers for radiators designed by Couture Cases will be showcased on the opening episode of Peter Andre's 60 Minute Makeover programme on ITV Monday 11th November at 2pm. These stunning creative designs are made possible by the use of highly versatile graphic film from diversified technology company 3M.

The YOYO Digital design used in the opening episode, chosen by Julia Kendell, was a Hannah Phoenix design, one of Couture Cases’ new surface print designers.

Couture Cases is appearing on three separate occasions. The second makeover will be on 25th November at 2pm – YOYO Deco in Brown Leather effect, again chosen by Julia Kendell. See links below for details:

By wrapping the radiator covers with high-quality 3M film, Couture Cases is able to offer an almost limitless range of styling ideas from colour combinations to laser-printed images from sources such as customers’ own photographs. The company is receiving considerable interest from home owners, as well as commercial and retail clients who can see the potential in placing their company brand or logo, as well as products and imagery, on covers.

Couture Cases designer Alison Johnson commented, “I had the idea for Couture Cases when seeking an alternative to traditional, plain radiator covers for a decorating project. Applying an image or texture using conventional materials or spray-painting is slow and can impose high business risks, production costs and selling prices. Customers love the opportunity to personalise their covers at a realistic price.”

Couture Cases are working with customers in the UK and Europe, and produce designs quickly using 3M network of authorised wrapping service providers. The films that Couture Cases use are Controltac Graphic Film IJ180 and Controltac Graphic Film IJ380 from 3M. Both are extremely conformable, premium cast films featuring a grey pigmented, pressure-activated adhesive for easy, positionable installation. In addition, both have a temperature range of -60°C to +107°C so they can easily withstand the heat from radiators once applied.
