Acrylic signs can be used for everything from tradeshow displays to indoor, point of purchase signage.

They are durable and oftentimes finished with a glossy coating to make them stand out even more.

 

An Acrylic Sign For Every Use

An acrylic sign is an excellent choice for just about any business. Foamcoreprint.com is here to help if you are considering purchasing this kind of signage, and you ought to know a little bit about the material and how it is made. An acrylic sign will often be made from a colorless cast polymer, similar to glass, but much more durable and lightweight. This polymer is then taken to a printer, where the acrylic sign will get your images a reverse-printed directly to the substrate. 

So, do you plan to display this sign in a high traffic area or one where customers will see it?

Depending upon where you plan to use the sign, you should consider purchasing one of our acrylic signs with a standoff. This is a transparent plastic or glass backing that allows the sign to be mounted to a wall in an aesthetically pleasing manner. An acrylic sign with standoff can be used for a number of different purposes, most commonly as a corporate logo, directional sign in a building, or some other internal use in an area where design and aesthetic decisions matter.

Of course, our custom acrylic signage is not limited in its applications. Due to the high-tech digital printing used, custom acrylic signage can showcase just about any message you would like it to. In fact, you are probably so accustomed to seeing this type of signage that you don’t even recognize it anymore out in the world. However, anytime you go to a sporting event, industry show, or conference chances are you are surrounded by custom acrylic signs. 

 

Plexiglass Signs

Do you know the difference between an acrylic sign and a plexiglass sign?

A name that is used interchangeably with acrylic, plexiglass is a brand name for the material from which these signs are derived. Plexiglass is, as its name would suggest, an alternative to glass that is just as durable and scratch-resistant with only half the weight. This is because plexiglass signs are not actually glass at all but rather a form of plastic polymer.

Because of this, plexiglass signage is highly regarded within the industry. While there are a number of different brand names of the polymer polyacrylate, chances are you’ve heard of plexiglass before as it is the most common. Whatever your need, Foamcoreprint.com is happy to supply the plexiglass signage that will take your business to the next level.

 

Acrylic Signs Around the office

Speaking of supplying signage, most of our customers looking for acrylic signage come to us for one of two purposes. While the uses for this material are unlimited, most are looking for either acrylic wall signs or acrylic office signs. Acrylic wall signs, as mentioned above, are beneficial for corporate logos. When looking for this kind of signage, businesses often opt for a transparent Plexiglass sheet with their logo or message printed on the front of it and a standoff on the back, allowing them to mount it over a desk or in some other prominent location in the office. However, some choose to have signage made of each letter or symbol in their logo. These kinds of frosted acrylic office signs can make a really nice impression on your customers and visitors to your office. 

The other primary use of this kind of material is acrylic wall signs. As you would imagine, these are for use internally. Most offices opt for a modern, clean-cut look nowadays, and these signs are perfect for that. Rather than having ugly door hangers or cheap plastic cards that slide in and out, aesthetically conscious offices opt for acrylic office signs. The scratch-resistant, translucent material allows for a very clean look sporting whatever messaging you need it to. Even the standoffs are incorporated into the design. For instance, a school might use these signs to mark their administrative office, with the two words aligned in between the studs from the standoff. 

As you read through this, you probably had several different images in your mind of what your sign could look like. What does that picture look like in your head? Can you now put it to words when you describe the sign to be made?
