What are Perspex/Acrylic Signs?
In short, acrylic signs are those made from or with a transparent plastic-like material that mimics glass but is much lighter weight and durable.
Acrylic material is probably most commonly called Plexiglas or Lucite by consumers, though those are actually trademarked product names. (Kind of like how everyone refers to facial tissues as Kleenex even though that’s technically the Kimberly-Clark Corporation’s registered trademark name.
What are the advantages of using Perspex for my signs ?
The benefits of custom acrylic signs are many. They are cost-effective while appearing highly premium, depending on the installation. Acrylic signs can feature printing on a simple rectangular or basic-shaped panel (see our main image above), or they can be laser cut into 3-dimensional letters and numerals. Acrylic signage might also feature a layered design, which can easily incorporate additional materials, too.
Essentially, acrylic signs are one of the most versatile options for nearly any business or professional interior. Whether you need wayfinding office signs, no-nonsense ADA signage, or even POP displays and menu boards, custom acrylic signs deliver high impact results.
Can Perspex signs only be installed indoor?
The short answer? No! Acrylic is such a durable material that it’s often appropriate for exterior signage, too. In fact, some people refer to it as “plastic glass,” and it is routinely used as an alternative window panel material.
Of course, weatherproofing measures may need to be taken to ensure the longevity of some types of acrylic signs outdoors. The material can also be permanently scratched or chipped, so it’s important to carefully consider your sign placements to prevent that kind of damage.
