Established in 2013, Instant One Media is the parent company for beloved household brands such as Appliance Art, Instant Granite, Instant Chalkboard, and Locker Designz. Specializing in the distribution of top-notch calendared vinyl, cast vinyl, lamination, and 50/50 window perf, we also manufacture a wide range of refresh-focused products used in both commercial and residential settings. Because we do not rely on printed materials from a factory overseas, we are able to assert a high level of quality control over every phase of production, providing a superior product that will last for up to 4 years. Our unique “No Bubble” adhesive allows you to avoid the hassles of a messy “wet” installation. The tacky adhesive cures in the first 48-hours after installation, yet is still easily removed years after.Headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia, our retail companies manufacture and product products for distribution via online sales channels that include our brand sites, Amazon, and other retail vendors. Proudly serving thousands of customers since we first opened our doors, our 5-person team successfully increased our client base many times over in the past two years.
