Aluminium Composite Sign Board
Aluminium composite is an excellent material for signboards, offering both durability and great value. Suitable for indoor and outdoor use, it is tough, long-lasting, and versatile. Aluminium composite can be used as is for simple, cost-effective signs or framed in oak for a more traditional appearance.
Additionally, the material can be shaped into various forms, adding visual interest while maintaining an affordable price.
Quality Signs at Reasonable Prices
Aluminium composite sign boards offer a cost-effective alternative to solid aluminium while maintaining a sleek and professional appearance. This durable, versatile material is easy to work with and comes in a wide range of colours and finishes to suit any application.
Lightweight - Yet Strong and Durable
Lightweight yet exceptionally rigid, aluminium composite is extremely flat, resistant to corrosion, and can be cut into a variety of simple shapes. Best of all, it’s environmentally friendly, making it an ideal choice for quality signage at a great price.
We use cut vinyl lettering (minimum height of 15mm) that can be applied to any board. You can customise your sign by selecting the font, letter colour, and board colour.
For designs requiring small lettering, multiple colours, or detailed images, we print and laminate the vinyl for a durable finish. [Click here for printed full-colour sign boards.]
When sizing small sign boards with 15mm high letters, you can typically fit just under two uppercase letters or spaces per 25mm, and about 2-3 lowercase letters or spaces per 25mm. If you’re unsure about sizing, simply send us your wording and desired letter size, and we’ll calculate the optimal sign dimensions for you.

Colour Range - As well as black and white we have all the colours listed below. The board is matt on one side and gloss on the other. We will use the matt side as standard.
