What material should I choose for my sign? – Rigid signs

D3SeLR0 17 October, 2018

Seldenrod stocks a wide variety of rigid boards for you to use to create beautiful signs. That’s why we have decided to create this blog post, so that you can explore our range in depth.

First things first, you need to ask yourself the following questions before heading into this article.

  1. Am I adding a graphic to an existing sign/ feature? (Wall, window, vehicle, existing rigid sign) If yes, we advise using an adhesive vinyl. Check out our vinyl collection here >> 
  2. Do I need a new rigid sign to fix to posts, walls or to free stand?

The material features are also very important characteristics, like the ANTI-UV batch, or the FLAME RETARDANT properties, and it was designed to replace PVC foams of the same thickness, being 100% RECYCLABLE, DIE-CUTTABLE and LESS FRAGILE. Bubble Guard® matt does not chip when hit-damaged or dropped accidentally.

Great for hanging sign, as it is light and the material is strong enough to not bend. See image for the sign here—>
