Alumalite®
Alumalite is a strong, aluminum composite panel with a high-density corrugated polypropylene core that will not swell, corrode, rot, wick water, or delaminate even under prolonged water exposure. The factory-baked polyester painted aluminum faces add high gloss brilliance and rigidity and are warranted not to crack, chip, flake, or peel. Alumalite offers a colorfast 10-year limited warranty.
Benefits |
Field-tested through extensive freeze/thaw cycling tests with no significant structural panel failure |
Ideal for paints, digital inks (both UV or solvent cured), screen print inks, and pressure-sensitive vinyl |
Strong and lightweight, Alumalite is the same weight as .040 aluminum sheet metal yet 50 times stronger |
Routs and cuts easily using standard carpentry tools; even bends around corners |
Wind-resistant—when properly fastened between two posts, Alumalite can withstand winds over 120 mph |
Field-tested through extensive freeze/thaw cycling tests with no significant structural panel failure |
Weather-resistant with a "Class A" flame spread rating |

PVC
Lightweight yet rigid, durable, chemically resistant, and offers superior dent and scratch resistance with a low-gloss matte finish. Sintra® is easily formed into just about any shape using wood and foam board fabrication techniques. It is self extinguishing, UL 94 V-0, UL 94 5-V, and Class 1 or Class A (ASTM E84) in gauges of 3mm or less. Sintra® is perfect for POP displays, exhibits, kiosks, framing, and interior and exterior signage. It can be digitally and screen printed, painted, saw cut, routed, die cut, and mounted utilizing cold mounting techniques. We would not recommend this material for outdoor use.

MaxMetal
MAXMETAL is an aluminum composite material comprised of two, pre-painted .15mm aluminum panels bonded to a solid polyethylene core. It’s lighter in weight and more durable than both MDO and solid aluminum panels, plus it resists scratching and denting better than wood panels. MAXMETAL’s finish is ready for vinyl, screen print inks, paint, cutting or routing.

Aluminum (.040, .063, .080)
Aluminum signs are ideal for both indoor and outdoor use. They give you the strength and durability of metal, but because they are aluminum, they never rust. Each sign is sealed with a tough plastic laminate to resist sunlight and the toughest weather conditions for up to 8 years outdoors. Aluminum signs can also tolerate high temperatures (up to 2120 F/ 1000C) and years of chemical spills, wash downs and cleanings with ease.
