Product and Material Questions
What are acrylic business signs?
Acrylic business signs are custom-printed plexiglass panels used for logos, reception branding, storefront displays, and interior wayfinding. The clear, glossy panel makes brand colors look rich and gives the sign a modern, floating appearance on the wall.
What material do you print on?
We print on clear acrylic, often called plexiglass. It looks like glass but is lighter, more affordable, and far more durable, so it will not shatter the way a glass-faced sign can in a busy workspace.
Which thickness should I choose?
We offer two thicknesses. The 3/16" (0.1875") panel is a sturdy, lightweight option that suits most indoor office and retail signs. The 1/4" (0.25") panel is more rigid and has a more substantial presence, making it a strong pick for larger lobby or storefront pieces.
Do acrylic business signs have a matte or glossy finish?
Every acrylic business sign comes with a glossy finish. Artwork is printed on the back of the panel and viewed through the clear front, which creates the deep, glass-like shine associated with premium plexiglass signage.
Can acrylic signs be used outdoors?
Yes. Acrylic resists sunlight, UV, and moisture, so it holds up well in covered outdoor entries, storefront alcoves, and high-humidity interiors. Keep it away from open flame and extreme freezing temperatures, which can distort the panel over time.
What sizes and shapes are available?
Custom sizes run from 20" x 20" up to 40" x 40" in square or rectangular shapes, and you can order them in portrait or landscape. To keep shipping simple, no side can exceed 40" — larger pieces would require freight transport.
What artwork works best on acrylic business signs?
High-contrast logos, solid brand colors, and clean typography read best through the glossy acrylic. Vector files keep edges sharp at large sizes. Busy photos can work as a background, but keep the logo and message uncluttered so the sign is easy to read from across a lobby or store.
Ordering, Installation & Care Questions
How do I prepare my logo file for printing?
Upload a vector logo in AI, EPS, or PDF whenever you can. For raster files, use the highest resolution you have, ideally around 300 dpi at the actual sign size. We also accept JPEG, PNG, TIFF, and PSD. If a file is a little small, our design tools can help enhance it before printing.
Can I upload my own artwork or design online?
Both. You can upload a print-ready logo or layout, or open our online design tool to add text, hours, graphics, and effects. There is also a library of templates you can customize if you want a head start on a lobby, office, or retail sign.
How do I mount an acrylic business sign?
Acrylic business signs install with metal standoffs for a clean, floating wall mount. Choose 0.5" or 1" hardware in silver or black. Drilled holes are included so the standoffs attach securely — just select your hole placement in the design tool before checkout.
Can I order matching signs for several locations?
Yes. Order each sign separately using the same artwork so branding stays consistent across offices, storefronts, or a multi-panel wall. If you need help sizing a set for several locations, send the files over and our team can help line them up.
How do I clean and care for an acrylic sign?
Dust regularly with a soft, non-abrasive cloth. For a deeper clean, use mild soap and water, then dry the surface to prevent water spots. Avoid ammonia, alcohol, and abrasive cleaners, which can cloud or scratch the acrylic.
How long do acrylic business signs last?
With proper care, acrylic business signs stay vibrant for roughly a decade indoors and about five years in covered outdoor settings. UV-stable inks and the durable plexiglass panel keep logos and colors looking sharp for years.
How should I store an acrylic sign?
Keep it in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight and moisture. Wrap it in a soft, non-abrasive material such as glassine paper or bubble wrap and lay it flat. Never stack acrylic panels directly on top of one another.
