The Difference Between A Manufacturer And White Box Re-Labeler

Do you know that not all companies that sell paint protection film are manufacturers? In fact, very few companies that sell a ppf actually manufacturer the film they sell. What most companies in this industry are selling is merely re-labeled films made by other white box manufacturers.

While there is nothing inherently wrong with this process, it does limit those companies with regard to making adjustments to how the products work and make modifications based on their customer feedback. This is one of the reasons we have chosen to work with SunTek, a division of Eastman Performance Films. They manufacturer their own paint protection films and are constantly working to improve the product.

In addition, being part of an innovative company like Eastman allows the various divisions to look within for products that can improve their offerings. One example of this is SunTek’s latest ground breaking ppf called Reaction. This product integrates an Eastman product that was developed for another use called Tetrashield™. This protective resin technology is trusted by OEMs for their own finishes and now it is being utilized to improve the abrasion resistance of Reaction PPF.

Finally, don’t you want to know who is standing behind the warranty? Can you be confident that if something happened to the white box manufacturer that the company re-labeling the product would stand by the warranty? When you are dealing with 10+ year warranties, the stability of the company behind the warranty should factor into the equation. We rest easy knowing that the 12 year warranty offered with SunTek Reaction is backed by a household name that had 2020 revenues in excess of $8 Billion.
