Avery’s industry-leading films are being put through their paces by Danny van Dongen’s racing team. The sponsoring partnership between these two top performers makes for a combination that drives to excel.

“In racing, nobody competes to be second best – they compete to win,” says Bill Podojil, Global Business Unit Manager for Transport and OEM at Avery Dennison. “And it’s an honour to have our name associated with a driver who is making every possible effort to excel and win – Danny van Dongen for the HTC Dutch GT4 series.

“Danny’s rapidly growing reputation for performance under pressure means he’s a perfect match for our award-winning range of Vehicle Graphics. His Corvette C6 looks stunning in the yellow and black livery of racing team Solid State Racing by Day V Tec. Not only does our logo appear on the car’s hood and doors, our products have been expertly applied across Danny’s car to make it a standout on the GT4 circuit.”

Only established in 2007, the GT4 format is rapidly growing in popularity. Its reputation for great-looking cars and close racing action have seen more and more GT4 events added to the racing calendar, with Asia about to run its first GT4 series in 2010.

“At Avery Dennison, we’re driven to excel. The products we used on Danny’s car are the perfect proof of our striking quality: Avery® 921 SC Black Matt combined with 928 SC Bright Yellow, as well as the Avery® 800 Gloss White and 801 PC Black films. And we know our products will continue to look good even under the toughest racing conditions. Together, Avery Dennison and Danny van Dongen are a winning combination,” says Bill.
