The wrapping of utility boxes is to help wrap bland or graffiti-scarred utility boxes – everything from street light electrical boxes at intersections to water pump stations – with images digitally printed on graffiti-resistant vinyl decals. The images can range in theme from the historical, to beautiful photos of the environment, to photos of foliage that blend in with local landscaping and act as camouflage.
