Explore the Advantages of Acrylic Signage

What sets acrylic apart from other sign types? Explore the unique properties of this material below:

Customizable

Acrylic is available in a rainbow of colors and ready to be personalized with a brand’s logo, wordmark, tagline, and more. Collaborate with our team to fine-tune every detail of your sign, including the size, shape, and messaging, to make your original ideas a reality.

Cost-Effective

Compared to glass or premium metals, acrylic has a much lower price point, providing businesses with custom signage solutions that fit their budget without compromising quality. This is especially beneficial for companies looking to develop a comprehensive interior sign strategy that requires numerous signs, such as door, wayfinding, and reception signs.

Impact-Resistant

Acrylic has a sleek and sophisticated look but is far from delicate. This material can endure drops, harsh weather conditions, and day-to-day wear and tear. If you need a long-lasting and dependable material, you’ve found it with acrylic.

Versatile

Whether you need captivating outdoor signs, stunning lobby signs, or informative directional signs, acrylic can do it all. We use this material to craft a wide range of signs, including hanging, office, wall, and storefront signs.

Our Selection of Custom Acrylic Signs

At Artisan Signworks, we excel at turning our customers’ ideas into tangible results. Discover our range of personalized signs here or get in touch with us to discuss your original project:

Clear Acrylic Signs: A staple in many professional environments in Frisco, clear acrylic signs are admired for their ability to imitate the look of glass. Clear acrylic panels are the perfect canvas on which companies can add their own unique branding elements.
Frosted Acrylic Signs: Acrylic boasts numerous finishes, including a matte, translucent look that mimics frosted glass. A stunning addition to any interior, these signs project elegance and refinement.
Edge-Lit Acrylic Signs: With edge-lit signs, a row of brilliant LED lights is added to the top, bottom, or side edges of a transparent panel. When activated, the light is dispersed through the sign, illuminating its message with a captivating glow.
Backlit Acrylic Signs: Backlit signs can be panels or dimensional signs cut into custom shapes and letters. In both formats, LED lights are installed at the back of the sign to create a light perimeter. These contemporary signs are sleek fixtures in modern offices.

When customizing these signs with custom designs and business branding, we have two production techniques to infuse a brand’s identity into these signs:

Surface Printing

This technique prints the sign’s design directly on the material’s front surface, creating a matte effect.

Sub-Surface Printing

This printing process involves printing the design on the backside of the acrylic panel. The final result has a glossy finish and creates the illusion that the design is suspended in the panel.

Acrylic is highly durable and available in a variety of colors beyond the clear version most people associate with the product. It can be fabricated into a wide range of business signs in a variety of shapes and colors. Unlike glass, acrylic is durable, which helps your signage look great and perform well for many years.

Yes. We can certainly support you in designing, crafting, and installing acrylic signs for the outdoors.
