In our range, you’ll find plastic signs available in three different materials: plastic laminate (acrylic), PET plastic, and foamed PVC (Forex). The best material depends on how the sign will be used. Read more about our materials and their applications below.
Plastic laminate (acrylic)
Our engraved plastic signs are made from acrylic plastic and consist of a two-layer plastic laminate. The top layer gives the sign its colour, while the underlying layer becomes visible when engraved, allowing the sign to feature two colours. On our design page, you’ll find a selection of colour combinations to choose from.
Material: plastic laminate (acrylic)
Thickness: 0.8 mm or 1.6 mm
Manufacturing: laser engraving
Mounting options: screws, tape, suction cups, magnetic strip, hanging holes, flag mounts, or desk stands
Applications:
Engraved plastic signs are versatile and suitable for most industries and occasions. Thanks to the deep engraving, the text or design will remain intact for a lifetime, making these signs extremely durable for both outdoor and indoor use. Popular applications: door signs, letterbox signs, labels and plates, as well as name badges.
Foamed PVC (Forex)
Our Forex plastic signs are made from a 3 mm thick sheet of foamed PVC. This material is relatively rigid yet lightweight, making it ideal as display material for shops and trade fairs. Its lightweight nature allows it to be easily hung from the ceiling, ensuring your message is visible from a distance.
The design is digitally printed directly onto the product in full colour. This means you can upload desired images, symbols, or logos in colour. While these plastic signs are suitable for both indoor and outdoor use, they have a longer lifespan when used indoors.
Material: foamed PVC
Thickness: 3 mm
Manufacturing: digital printing
Mounting options: screws, tape, flag mounts, hanging
Applications:
Thanks to their lightweight nature, foamed PVC plastic signs can be used for a wide range of purposes. Forex plastic is often used for advertising signs, business signs, and office signs. Their lightweight design also makes them excellent for trade show displays or as shop or boat interiors.
PET plastic (polyester)
PET signs are made from a durable material composed of recyclable plastic. This robust and wear-resistant material, similar to aluminium, is a reliable choice for longevity and quality.
Material: PET (polyethylene terephthalate)
Thickness: 2 mm
Manufacturing: digital printing
Mounting options: screws, tape, flag mounts, hanging holes, wire suspension
Applications:
These plastic signs are often used in contexts requiring durable signage, such as warning signs or informational signs that need to withstand weather and wear.
