Technical Features and Materials
Corrugated plastic core faced with aluminium on both sides.
Manufacturing Process
- Raw Material High impact co-polymer polypropylene resin, with anti-static, conductive, UV or flame retardant masterbatch added at the extruder when a modified grade is ordered.
- Extrusion The sheet is extruded on one of six production lines to the ordered thickness and weight per square metre. Printing grade stock is corona treated on both surfaces during extrusion.
- Cutting and Creasing Sheets are cut to the ordered panel size and creased where the part has to fold.
- Fabrication Boxes, totes, trays, sleeves and layer pads are formed by welding, riveting or sealing the edges and corners, and accessories are fitted.
- Inspection and Packing Finished goods are inspected, then packed in plastic shrink film on wooden pallets or to the packing method the customer specifies.

Comparison With Other Options
| Option | What It Means for You |
|---|---|
| AlumaCorr | Aluminium faced, light, up to 10 years, takes vinyl and inks |
| MDO Board | Absorbs moisture, heavier, shorter outdoor life |
| Solid Aluminium Sheet | Longer life but heavier and more expensive |
| Corrugated Plastic Sign Board | Cheapest, lighter, plastic surface finish |
Use Guide
- Choose panel thickness against the sign frame span; 2.5 mm suits small faces and 6.5 mm large ones.
