Large format marketing signs and banners offer a whole host of choices that you can pick from. However, one type of large format signage has gained a lot of popularity over the years – rigid signs. So, let’s discuss what rigid signs entail.
What are Rigid Signs?
Rigid signs are hard-wearing, flat signs that you can use in quite a few indoor and outdoor settings. You can usually spot them around construction sites, on restaurant walls, close to open houses, etc.
Rigid signs are pretty affordable and practical to boot. They can be printed in color and black and white high-quality results. There are many different types of wooden signs that you can choose from for your printing purpose – be it advertising, marketing, decorating, or displaying.
Now that you know what rigid signs are, let’s get into the varied types of severe signs you can choose from and grow your customer network efficiently.
Types of Rigid Signs
Here are the five most commonly used rigid signs.
1. Corflute Signs
Corflute signs are made from highly sturdy corrugated plastic, so these signs are suitable for both outdoor and indoor usage. Narrow channels – with a thickness of 3mm to 5 mm – are placed between the plates, so these signs are easy to fold or bend. These signs are resistant to harsh weather elements, lightweight, and highly affordable.
Corflute signs are most commonly used for promotional signs by retail shops, as exhibition or event signs, political signage, directional signs, etc. However, you can also use them for long term purposes since they are long-lasting.
2. Aluminum Signs
Another common type of rigid sign is aluminum signs. They are pretty sturdy and lightweight, so you can easily carry them on your business exhibition tour. You can get these signs in high-quality and customize them to fit your needs.
There are two types of aluminum signs – brushed and painted. Painted aluminum signs are perfect for placing in front of your shop for promotional purposes as they are waterproof and don’t bend easily. Brushed aluminum signs, however, have a metallic sheen to them, which makes them ideal for decorative purposes. You can use aluminum signage both indoors and outdoors.
3. Screen Board Signs
Screen Board Signs are widely used as advertising signage or posters by retail shop owners. The cardboard material of this type of signage offers high-resolution print results with vivid colors. Screen Board signs are ideal for indoor usage; you can hang your lightweight Screen Board sign from your shop's ceiling, or you can mount them on your walls.
4. PVC Foam Board Signs
PVC Foam Board is a lightweight and firm material commonly used to create signs. These signs are ideal for indoor usage; however, you can use them outdoors since they are resistant to sunlight, wind, and rain. They are also highly durable and long-lasting.
You can use them for promotional purposes inside your shop. Many retail shop owners use these signs for branding and advertisement purposes, thanks to the vivid color prints as point of sale displays.
5. Armaboard Signs
Armaboard Signs are ideally used as decorative or promotional wall hangings since they are meant for indoor usage. These signs are made from a highly sturdy and lightweight material, on which you get a flat image printed in high quality. The ink used for printing on these signs is UV and weather resistant. These signs are an affordable and highly long-lasting signage option.
No one rigid sign type is better than the other. The effectiveness of a rigid sign depends entirely on the way you wish to utilize it. So, make sure to choose the rigid right sign!
