Plastic Signs

Corrugated plastic, also known by the brand name Coroplast®, is a versatile, extruded twin-wall plastic sheet that comes in a variety of colors. Lightweight and cost-effective, it is ideal for a wide variety of indoor and short-term outdoor uses.

Plastic Sign Tips

  • Use corrugated plastic as a substitute for poster board or card stock for interior applications. Its surface is not affected by most oils, solvents or water, and cleans easily
  • Cut through the first corrugation to create A-frame signs or table tents. The cut will also enable you to fold the sign and carry it in a briefcase or suitcase
  • You may notice faint horizontal lines when you look at corrugated plastic. It is aligned with flutes that generally run horizontally across the width of the sign.

Plastic Sign Application

  • Menu boards
  • Special event signage
  • Directional and informational signs
  • Indoor point-of-purchase signs
  • Temporary and promotional signage
  • Trade shows
