Very cost effective, long lasting signs, plaques and nameplates
Font Arial Black. Blue laminate with white letters. Line border.
These plaques are tough and ideal for use with machinery
Acrylic laminate plaques and signs offer a versatile and robust solution for various applications, from house names to outdoor information displays. Constructed from dual-layered, exterior-grade acrylic, these signs are engineered to withstand the elements, boasting exceptional weatherproofing and UV resistance. The precise laser engraving process cuts through the top layer, revealing the contrasting color beneath, ensuring sharp, legible lettering that remains vibrant over time.
Available in both 1.6mm and 3.2mm thicknesses, these plaques cater to diverse aesthetic and functional requirements. While laser engraving is standard, the thicker 3.2mm option allows for deep engraving, providing a tactile, more pronounced lettering style reminiscent of traditional carved signs. This added depth enhances visibility and adds a premium touch, making it ideal for high-impact signage. The durability and customisation options of acrylic laminate make it a superior choice for long-lasting, visually appealing information signs and nameplates.

Frequently Asked Questions – Engraved Laminate Signs
What are engraved laminate signs?
Engraved laminate signs are made from a durable multi-layer plastic material. The top surface is engraved away to reveal a contrasting colour underneath, creating clear, permanent lettering and graphics.
Where can engraved laminate signs be used?
They are suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. Common applications include door signs, office signs, information plaques, equipment labels, safety signs, memorial markers and identification plates.
Are engraved laminate signs weatherproof?
Yes. Exterior-grade engraving laminates are designed to withstand rain, sunlight and changing temperatures, making them a popular choice for long-term outdoor use.
What colours are available?
A wide range of colour combinations is available, including black and white, white and black, brass effect, silver effect, gold effect, red, blue, green and many other options.
Can you engrave logos and images?
Yes. Simple logos, symbols and artwork can be engraved. Vector artwork produces the best results, although we can often work from other image formats.
What sizes can engraved laminate signs be made?
Signs can be produced in a wide range of standard and custom sizes. We can cut laminate signs to suit specific dimensions or fit existing panels and frames.
Can engraved laminate signs be made to custom shapes?
Yes. In addition to rectangles and squares, laminate signs can be cut into circles, ovals, arrows and many other bespoke shapes.
How thick are engraved laminate signs?
Most engraved laminate signs are produced from 1.6mm or 3.2mm thick material, depending on the application and fixing method required.
How are engraved laminate signs fixed?
They can be supplied with screw holes, adhesive backing, stand-off fixings or left plain for the customer to fit using their preferred method.
Can laminate signs be used for safety and identification purposes?
Yes. They are commonly used for health and safety signs, machine labels, control panels, electrical labels, asset tags and general identification signage.
Will the engraving fade over time?
No. Because the lettering is physically engraved into the material rather than printed on the surface, it will not peel or wash off. The sign's lifespan will depend on the environment and exposure conditions.
Can I have very small text engraved?
Yes. Engraved laminate is ideal for detailed information and small text, making it popular for equipment labels, control panels and nameplates.
Are engraved laminate signs suitable for marine or industrial environments?
Yes. The material is resistant to moisture and many common industrial conditions, making it suitable for workshops, factories, boats and coastal locations.
Can I order a single sign or do I need to buy in bulk?
We can produce anything from a single custom sign to large quantities for offices, schools, factories and commercial projects.
How quickly can engraved laminate signs be made?
Production times vary depending on the quantity and complexity of the order, but engraved laminate signs are one of the quickest custom sign types to manufacture.
