A comprehensive range of materials
In addition to the more standard sign materials, Stocksigns can supply custom made signs from a broad array of materials. See below for a quick rundown of some of the standard and bespoke materials we have available. Other materials are available on request.
Recyclable Materials
Each of the below signage materials are compatible with recycling processes.
Aluminium
A long-lasting, lightweight yet durable and recyclable metal that can be used for both interior and exterior signs.
Aluminium Composite Material (ACM)
A strong yet lightweight composite panel which offers a cost effective alternative
to standard aluminium. With minimal scrap value, its use can help deter signage theft. This material is ideal for internal and external use.
Brushed Stainless Steel
Brushed Stainless Steel is available in two grades. 304 grade material provides a prestigious look ideally suited for internal signs. (316 marine grade available on request for external signs.)
Materials Compatible with Closed-loop Recycling
PVC-Free Corrugated Plastic
A durable yet lightweight corrugated material particularly suited to temporary signs and is a popular choice in the construction industry. Available in 4mm and 10mm thicknesses.
Unlike other forms of Correx, which contains PVC and has high amounts of chlorine, this PVC-free product is a far more eco-friendly choice. It is also compatible with Closed-Loop recycling.
Non-Recyclable Materials
Each of the below signage materials are not recyclable. This can be down to regulatory requirements (e.g. self extinguishing fire signage) or that it there are currently little to no suppliers of a sustainable version of this material. We are observing supply chains for any new innovations in sustainable signage materials.
Foamex
A versatile PVC foam sheet with a smooth matt finish. This material is often used for
temporary signs requiring a superior look. Available in 3mm and 5mm thicknesses.
Rigid PVC Plastic
Our best-selling material choice, 1mm semi-rigid plastic PVC is suitable for interior and exterior use. Signs are supplied with square corners, no holes as standard.
Acrylic
Acrylic is a versatile material that is both lightweight and shatterproof. Best suited to internal signs for a contemporary look as a a cost effective and safe alternative to using glass. Available in 3mm, 5mm and 10mm thicknesses.
Photoluminescent
Available on rigid plastic and self adhesive vinyl, this ‘glow in the dark’ material provides temporary visibility in the dark, making it ideal for fire signage. In line with the PSPA, standard signs are produced on Class B. (Class C material available on request.)
Reflective
Class 1 or Class 2 reflective material is adhered to aluminium composite as standard, but can be supplied as a vinyl or applied to any rigid substrate. Generally used for traffic signs that can be post or
wall mounted.
Self Adhesive Vinyl
A cost effective high gloss PVC with a peel off backing, self adhesive vinyl is ideal for interior signage. This material adheres to most smooth, clean surfaces including curves.
