Plastic Foam
Lightweight low-cost sign material
- 3mm, 5mm & 10mm thick
- Mainly indoor use only
- Our Plastic Foam sign material consists of two synthetic plates with a hard foam core. Also available PVC free, these signs are commonly used indoors for wall coverings and displays. The 3mm Plastic Foam board is flexible and lighter for smaller sign sizes, while the 5mm board is more robust for larger signs and railings. They are made from lightweight foamed PVC with a hard white top layer, offering excellent print quality and are water-repellent for short outdoor use.
Perspex
Strong and light sign material
- 3mm, 5mm & 10mm thick
- Suitable for indoors and out
- Perspex is lighter, stronger, and more durable than standard glass. Made from a cast polymer, Perspex is transparent, colourless, and durable. It is an excellent alternative to fragile glass, making it ideal for use in reception areas. As a thermoplastic, this material softens when heated, allowing for versatile applications. With its luxurious and chic appearance, Perspex is an excellent choice for UV prints. Out Blockout option has a foil reverse ensuring non-transparency
Corrugated Plastic
Great value
- 3.5mm thick
- Suitable for indoors and out
- We even have a version made of 70% recycled plastic.
- The corrugated plastic material used in our signs is designed with a unique channel plate design, allowing the signs to be flexible and easily folded or bent to suit your specific requirements. Additionally, our corrugated plastic signs are fully recyclable and waterproof, making them an environmentally friendly and durable choice for all your signage needs.
Cardboard
A must-have for any business
- 2mm thick
- Indoor use only
- Cardboard is a staple for any business. Due to its lightweight nature, it is commonly used in signs, making it perfect for cost-effective promotional displays. Whether mounted on the wall or hanging from the ceiling, cardboard provides a versatile and economical solution.
Aluminium
Painted or brushed finish
- 3mm thick
- Indoors or out
- Painted Aluminium: Durable material, made of two synthetic plates with a solid core, is resistant to bending and water damage. It is commonly used for façade signage and promotional signs.
- Brushed Aluminium: With an eye-catching silver metallic finish, this material is perfect for advertising signs and wall decorations in buildings or offices.
Trespa
High Pressure Laminate
- 6mm thick
- Outdoors use
- Trespa is a very strong material made up of two hard plates with a solid core, providing excellent resistance to bending. This durable material is often used for promotional signs at sports venues because it can withstand tough weather conditions. Furthermore, it is easy to clean, even if it has graffiti or paint on it.
Magnetic
Perfect for vans and cars
- Less than 1mm thick
- Outdoors or indoor use
- Similar to a regular vinyl sticker, our magnetic sign material is water-resistant and perfect for temporary signage on your car or van. For the magnetic material to hold effectively, the surface should contain iron, nickel, cobalt, or gadolinium. It is recommended to regularly move the sign to prevent UV-induced colour changes in the underlying paint.
