Surplus Eco Store is excited to announce the launch of its new Tint and Signmakers Marketplace — an innovative platform designed to simplify the sale of surplus materials. Users can easily register, add their company profile and logo, and upload details and photos of available products including surplus window tint films, solar and security films, and a wide variety of glazing and protection films.

The platform also caters to signmakers by offering a wide selection of specialty vinyls, reflective films, vehicle wraps, and virtually any type of self-adhesive product.

Managing Director Aaron McCarthy explains the concept simply: "Imagine converting all that surplus or end-of-roll stock into CASH."

Surplus Eco Store's mission is to help rediscover and unlock the value of surplus vinyl and reflective materials that are often left unused. There’s no limit to what you can list — from media and film to vinyls, wrap materials, and specialty items.

Key Benefits of the Marketplace Include:

• Sell Hard-to-Find Products: List discontinued or hard-to-source films and vinyls from major brands.
• Promote Sustainability: Reduce waste by giving surplus materials a second life, supporting a greener industry.
• Solve Urgent Needs: When vandalism strikes or stock is unavailable, the Marketplace helps users quickly source replacement materials, preserving client relationships.
• Full Seller Control: Set your prices, retain your stock, and ship directly once payment is received — turning unused inventory into steady cash flow.

Visit BOTH of Us at PacPrint 2025! Meet the Surplus Eco Store team at  The Dome at the Sydney Showgrounds from May 20–23, 2025. Try out the new website, network with industry leaders, and discover how this platform can transform your surplus into profit.

About Surplus Eco Store

Founded by Aaron McCarthy, a seasoned flat glass solutions installer and business owner with over 30 years of experience, Surplus Eco Store was born from a simple but powerful idea: reduce waste and make the window film and signage industry more eco-friendly, while supporting charities.

For years, Aaron observed valuable materials — part rolls and surplus stock — deteriorating in storage, eventually becoming landfill waste. The pressing question was: “How else can we recycle these valuable, non-traditionally recyclable products?” The answer: resell them to other tint, signage, and allied industry professionals.

Thus, the Surplus Eco Store Marketplace was created — a world-first initiative that:

• Reduces landfill waste by reusing valuable materials.
• Provides a return on investment from surplus stock instead of a loss.
• Offers access to discontinued, out-of-stock, or short roll products.
• Frees up valuable storage space in businesses.
• Supports charities and nonprofits through every transaction.

In Aaron’s own words: "Our new platform, www.SurplusEcoStore.com.au, empowers businesses to turn waste into profit while giving back to the community. By joining as a free seller, companies can unlock revenue from surplus stock, access hard-to-find materials, and reduce industry waste — all while supporting charitable causes."

The Surplus Eco Store initiative is proudly endorsed by industry associations, ensuring that every transaction makes a positive impact.
