Aerobalam Chiapas
Project Overview
Client Name: Aerobalam Chiapas
Industry: Tourism / Aircraft
Location: Chiapas, Mexico
Project Type: Aircraft Wrap
Date Completed: March 2024
We successfully wrapped an aircraft for a Mexican airline launching a new tourism initiative for the stunning city of Chiapas, Mexico — and it was a true team triumph.
The Challenge
Tight Deadlines, No Room for Error
Due to 3M’s special release criteria for aircraft film, the material couldn’t be shipped until specific conditions were met — leaving the team with virtually no margin for error once it arrived. There was no extra material and no time for reprints.
This high-profile project came with a non-negotiable launch date and limited resources. With no access to exact aircraft measurements, no backup materials, and an install window that ran from 5 a.m. to nearly midnight, everything had to be flawless on the first try.
The Solution
Precision & Preparation
The graphics team created razor-accurate files under pressure. Even without full measurements, their meticulous work set the entire project up for success.
Flawless Production
The production team ran a tight operation with no margin for error. Materials were limited, but speed and precision ensured not a single inch went to waste.
💪 Grit on the Ground
Installers showed serious dedication — working nearly 18 hours, handling unexpected hangar conditions (including finishing by flashlight), and delivering a perfect result under close client supervision.
Materials Used: Aircraft 3M Specialty film
Production Process: Printing, laminating, through cutting and kiss cutting
Installation Details: On-site work, special tools, permits, safety measures.
The Results
Visual Impact: From just a private plane to a Tourist initiative in a breeze.
Functional Results: Brand Visibility
Client Outcome: The aircraft took off the very next morning, and the client was thrilled. This was their first branded plane, and thanks to your outstanding work, they’re eager to partner with us again.
Client Testimonial
