Avery Dennison Adds New Wrap Trainer Blake Madsen

Avery Dennison Graphics Solutions (Mentor, OH) has hired veteran wrap and graphics industry professional Blake Madsen as one of its wrap trainers.

Madsen has more than 15 years of experience in the field. He began his career in 2006, working in sign and print shops and mastering the art of vehicle wrapping. His passion for the craft led him to compete in numerous wrap competitions, and over the years, he’s earned numerous accolades and certifications. In 2017, Madsen founded his company, Brand Command, which specializes in commercial vehicle branding.

Madsen’s first class with Avery Dennison will be held May 1-2 at Warrior Wraps in Las Vegas.

“We are excited to have Blake join our team,” said Graeme McKnight, Avery Dennison marketing associate, in a media announcement. “His expertise in training and knowledge of the industry will only help to grow our program to new heights. Blake joins a team of experienced wrap installers to provide training for both our wrap training classes as well as our certification exams.”

Avery Dennison offers two hands-on wrap training courses – Full Print Digital Wrapping Class and Supreme Wrapping Film Class – and a certification exam. All skill levels are welcome to participate in these training sessions.

Ninety percent of the classes are hands-on, with multiple vehicles and ample practice material to improve cutting skills, learn properties of the material and hone installation techniques, according to the announcement.
