      Rigid Sign Printing:  Coroplast, Rigid PVC and Foam Core

      TABLE OF CONTENTS

        There are plenty of reasons why businesses employ signs for promotional purposes. For example, statistics posted on Brandongaille.com show 35% of potential customers walking by would not notice a store without an outdoor sign. Also, 85% of customers are locals, living within a 5-mile distance from your business. This means that you need to make yourself noticeable. Beyond eye-catching design and clever content, there is one thing you should be aware of when ordering rigid sign printing, the material! Different materials suit different durability and requirements under circumstances. Not all Rigid signs are the same. Some of the most common are constructed of Coroplast, Rigid PVC, or Foam Core. At 4over4, we have the ability to print all of those and continue to add to the list in order to give our clients the best selection to meet their every need. The best way to make sure you are purchasing the best one is to understand all your options to ensure a successful end result.

        What You Should Know About Rigid Sign Printing Material

        Coroplast Signs

        Coroplast is the corrugated plastic that is used in most yard signs. You may have also heard it referred to as a “pp plate sheet” or a “Fluted Polypropylene Sheet”. Coroplast signs are 4mm thick, highly weather resistant and flexible, ideal features for both indoor and outdoor signage. With the help of an H-stake, yard signs can be placed anywhere to increase brand exposure. In order to survive the outdoor elements, coroplast printing happens with cured UV ink to optimize the overall results. coroplast sign

        Rigid PVC Signs

        As its name implies, rigid PVC is a harder type of plastic and is popular for signs that are intended for a longer period of use. They are only ⅛” thick, which makes them very easy to handle for different positions and movements. Rigid PVC printing produces high-quality results, working as indoor point of sale boards, semi-permanent signs, or exhibition panels. As opposed to Coroplast, Rigid PVC signs are smooth to the touch and more suitable for places where the client will be able to inspect the marketing tool from up close. rigid sign printing

        Foam Core Signs

        Foam core (or foamcore) is a thicker, yet lighter printing option. It comes in a 3/16” size and is perfect for displaying photographs or any sort of graphic art. Of the three, foam core is the most customizable. Our online store, for example, offers 9 sizes as well as the dimensions of your choice. Foam Core printing also offers more customization possibilities. The signs can be printed on Semi Gloss, Hi Gloss or Bright White Uncoated. As you may have anticipated, this product is a powerful decorative tool for both the home and office. foam-core-signs

        Which Rigid Sign Printing Option is Best?

        Each of these products is great, it simply depends on your intended purpose. Whichever you choose, remember that lighter colors will absorb lower amounts of sunlight. That is an important factor to consider when you place signs outdoors and expect them to last a long time.

        Light absorption could cause damage to the sign in time and force you to order a replacement sooner than anticipated. Here’s a chart to make your decision easier. You can be sure to purchase the sign that best suits your needs and will last for the time which you require:
