Acrylic is a highly versatile material in the signage industry, offering limitless possibilities for creative and functional applications. Whether you're crafting sleek, modern signs or intricate designs, acrylic can be bent, drilled, shaped, router cut, laser cut, moulded, and formed into nearly any shape or size. This flexibility makes it ideal for businesses aiming to stand out with high-quality, eye-catching signage.
Why Acrylic?
Acrylic is available in various thicknesses—most commonly 3mm, 5mm, and 10mm—allowing for tailored designs to suit your project needs. Available in Clear, Opal, and a wide range of vibrant colours, it’s easy to match your brand’s aesthetic or create striking visuals.
What sets acrylic apart is its material properties:
Stronger than Glass and Lightweight: Acrylic is stronger than glass and less than half its weight, making it durable and easy to install, even for large signs.
Good Chemical Resistance: Resistant to many chemicals, acrylic is a durable choice for both indoor and outdoor use, maintaining its appearance and functionality in harsh environments.
