Signs that acrylic signs are here to stay!

Acrylic signs are one of the most widespread and versatile sign formats is use today. The reason that acrylic signs are so popular is based on three particular aspects. Firstly, acrylic signs are long-lasting. They keep their appearance remarkably well, whether indoor or outdoor. With just a quick wipe with a wet cloth and some detergent every once in a while, acrylic signs can be kept looking as good as new for a long time to come. In some cases, where vinyl lettering may be a temptation for those who may peel or scratch off parts of the sign, acrylic signs can be manufactured in a transparent format, with the lettering printed in on the back of the sign. When the signs are placed on the wall or surface, the lettering is therefore protected.
Acrylic signs also have an advantage over many other sign formats due to their versatility of shape. Acrylic is a flexible medium, and can be moulded in a wide variety of shapes. Boxes, leaflet holders, badges, illuminated signs, doorplates, indoor and outdoor signs can all be produced, and acrylic signs can be made in a huge variety of colours too – both transparent, partially opaque and fully opaque. Partially opaque signs can be illuminated from behind and make exceptionally good signs, particularly in health and safety contexts, such as fire escape routes and emergency exits.
It is also worth noting that  acrylic signs are considerably more economic than many alternatives, such as glass and wood, and compared to poly-carbonates which are used in many cases, acrylic provides a much flatter appearance, and therefore increased clarity.
Although there are a wide variety of technically advanced plastics and resins available today, acrylic has remained a lasting favourite, and it is not hard to see why. Cheaper than metal, more versatile and durable than wood, and more attractive than plastic or vinyl,  acrylic signs have a look that means professionalism and style, and will retain that style and look far longer than many wooden signs, which begin to peel, crack and rot, and metal signs which may rust.
The only real limitation on the use of  acrylic signs is in places where temperatures can be excessive. In these cases, the vinyl is liable to melt. Oven signs and boiler labels are best manufactured from a different material.
A very modern way in which acrylic signs are being used is to have clear signs mounted just a little away from the wall. With effective lighting, this creates a shadow effect, which adds another dimension to the sign, and makes for a very attractive and eye-catching sign or display.
The only drawbacks on some  acrylic signs is that, if cleaned too hard with a rough surface, small scratches may be created, deteriorating the overall look. Acrylic is also subject to glare problems, but most manufacturers able to provide anti-glare acrylic if required. Careful, thought out lighting can be of enormous benefit in these cases, with either rear lighting, diffused or downward lighting preferable to a direct spot light.
