MOUNTING TO SUBSTRATE

Below are the list of most polular mounting substrates we carry in stock.

ALUMINUM

Great for outdoors or indoors and scratch resistant. Available in white/white or raw/raw and up to 4’x8′.

CHIPBOARD

An inexpensive substrate for short term use. Chipboard is formed using recycled paper that is pressed and glued together to make a solid structure. Available up to 4’x6′.

CONVERD BOARD

100% recyclable moisture resistant and maintains superior dimensional stability during changes in temperature and humidity. Designed for indoor and short-term outdoor POP and signage applications. conVerd Board™ is both Rainforest Alliance and FSC® certified. Available up to 4’x8′.

COROPLAST

Inexpensive corrugated “plastic cardboard” is lightweight and waterproof. Commonly used for outdoor promotions like; yard sales, golf promotions and for sale signs on lawns. It easily accepts metal lawn stakes. Available up to 4’x8′.

DIBOND

Dibond is aluminum composite panel comprised of two pre-painted sheets of .012″ aluminum with a solid polyethylene core. Dibond comes in many colors and finishes which can be machined and bent. It is a very rigid opaque material and works well outdoors.

Thickness: 3mm

Available sizes: White comes in 49.2"x98.4" and 59.1" x 120.1". All other colors and finishes 49.2"x98.4"

E-PANEL

Comprised of two pre-painted sheets of .008″ aluminum with a solid polyethylene core. Class A fire rating. Comes in white and brushed silver and cannot be machined or bent. .005 is available only in white Material works well outdoors and costs less than Dibond. Available in 4'x8' and 5'x10'.

FOAMBOARD

A foam covered lightweight paper stock, not warp resistant, but is inexpensive. Used for short term presentations. Available up to 4’x8′.

GATORBOARD

This is an extruded polystyrene foam that has a much harder outer surface than other foam core boards. It resists warping and is resistant to moisture. It’s not an acid free material, so don’t use it for items which will be displayed in museums or other permanent archives. Available up to 5’x10′ and comes in black, white, and natural.

This paper-faced memory foam-board is engineered to retain its thickness during mounting, laminating, screen-printing and die-cutting. Highly warp resistant.

LEXAN

These polycarbonate sheets are very high impact (some consider them unbreakable), are extremely transparent and have the look of transparent glass. Note; Lexan costs more than Plexi. Available up to 6’x8′ and 4’x10′.

ACRYLIC

This material is considered the standard of the industry because of its quality, ease of use, and wide range of thicknesses, and sizes. It’s primarily used for second surface mounting and lobby signage and is stronger than glass but not as strong as polycarbonate but is more scratch resistant . It has very good UV light absorbing properties and does not discolor with age. It transmits 92% of optical light. Available up to 8’x10′ and 4’x 12′.

PLYWOOD

All plywoods bind resin and wood fibre sheets to form a composite material. This alternating grain reduces expansion and shrinkage, providing improved dimensional stability – thus reducing warping. Can be used indoors and outdoors. Available up to 4’x8′.

POLYCARBONATE

It is about a third lighter than plexiglass and is stronger, but scratches easier. Polycarb tends to yellow over time where Plexiglass has better UV light absorbing properties and does not discolor with age. Available up to 6’x8′ and 4’x10′.

POLYSTYRENE

General-purpose polystyrene is hard, and rather brittle, however it is one of the least expensive substrates we offer. Light weight and great for disposable signage, indoors or outdoors. Available up to 4’x12′.

SINTRA BOARD

Is a lightweight rigid board that is very durable. It is used for photo mounting, display construction and a variety of other uses. A good choice for long term use. Common colors are white and black, however red, blue, green and more colors can be specially ordered. Can be used outdoors, but will warp in hot sun. Available up to 60″ x 120″ sheets.

ULTRABOARD

A lightweight, durable substrate for indoor use. Available up to 5’x10′ in black and white.
