We offer a number of different sign materials for school signage. All are suitable for indoor or outdoor use. School signage is printed on a high-quality vinyl sign face, which is laminated with a UV protective film. We also offer an optional class 1 reflective background, which is mainly used for traffic signs.
Our school safety, parking, toilet, and block signs are made from the following materials:
- Solid 1.6mm aluminium – This is the strongest and best material we recommend for strength and durability. It’s impact-resistant to a point. Solid aluminium is also recyclable.
- 3mm aluminium composite panel (ACP) – ACP is a cheaper option. It comprises a ‘sandwich panel’ made of thin aluminium skins and a polyethylene core. We don’t supply ACP signs to many schools these days because it is a combustible material. However, we still offer it as an option. Ask us for more information.
- 6mm Corflute – An effective, lightweight material ideal for classroom signs or temporary exterior signs, optional stainless steel eyelets are available with Corflute signs.
- Stickers – Peel and stick, printed or vinyl cut to any shape you need.
