Self Adhesive Vinyl (stickers)

Self-adhesive vinyl is a plasticised film with a permanent acrylic based adhesive backing. Backing paper is used to cover the adhesive side of the vinyl, which can be easily removed before it is applied to the surface. Self-adhesive vinyl can be used internally and externally on non-porous, smooth surfaces so it the sign can be completely flattened to secure its position. It generally performs better internally as whilst the vinyl is waterproof, ongoing exposure to water and moisture can affect its integrity over time. Self-adhesive vinyl should not be used on brick, stone, rendered or wood surfaces.

• Easy to affix to the required surface
• Cost-effective signage option
• Best suited to internal, flat or curved, smooth surfaces (non-porous)
• Gloss finish available

Aluminium Composite (Dibond)

Aluminium composite signs (also known by a manufacturer's name 'Dibond' signs) consists of two thin aluminium sheets that have been bonded to a non-aluminium polyethylene core. This type of material is the most commonly used for outdoor signage due to its durability and versatility. The material is usually 3mm thick and can also feature pre-drilled holes can be included in the order to support the installation process. Composite aluminium signs are long-lasting and able to withstand exposure to elements, making them ideal for use outdoors in testing environments.

• Rigid, Strong yet lightweight material
• Suitable for long-term use under testing environments
• Fully weatherproof
• Does not rust or corrode over time

Brushed Aluminium

Brushed Aluminium, Brushed Steel, or the equivilent terms is very similar to 'Dibond', in that it's two thin aluminium sheets bonded to a non-aluminium polyethylene resin core. Total thickness 3mm. The external aluminium sheets contain a 'brushed silver' finish to give a premium smart superior looking finish to the sign. Brushed Aluminium can be used both indoor and outdoors and is a strong long lasting contemporary smart looking sign material.

• Premium material with a superior finish
• Will not rust or corrode over time
• Can be used indoors or outdoors

Despite being lightweight – which makes these types of signs very easy to install – Foamex is very robust and strong and serves as a great alternative to wood and MDF signage. Foamex works well in outdoor environments (although is better for short-term use) thanks to the material being weatherproof and water repellent, so it does not absorb moisture

• Water repellent and weatherproof
• Suitable for use indoors and outdoors
• Lightweight and easy to install /li>
• Can be cut into a variety of basic shapes

Zintec

Zintec (or Zinc Steel) is a steel metal plate that has been electrolytically coated with a thin layer of Zinc.

Zintec signs are available in a reflective vinyl finish for increase visibility.

• Suitable for more heavy duty applications
• Strong corrosion resistance
• Sturdy and dependable material
