Giving your signs a greater presence
Frequently the first contact that you have with visitors to your premises, the signs outside your building can also play a key role in establishing public perception of the culture and values that lie within. And yet, in so many instances, premises are let down by poor quality or low budget signage.
So what exactly is a sign tray?
Sign trays are constructed from the same, durable 3mm aluminium sheet that is used in our flat plate aluminium signs, but have folded returns to each edge (usually 25 – 75mm depending upon overall size), to create a 3-dimensional sign. Corners are welded for strength and dressed to give a smooth surface before having a durable, coloured powder-coated finish applied. All but the smallest A4, A3 and A2 sign trays may be wall or post-mounted.
Graphics are applied using one of two possible methods, depending upon the complexity of the design required. Simpler signs consisting of lettering plus limited graphic elements (for example a single logo) are accomplished using computer-cut vinyl lettering, whilst more complicated designs incorporating multiple logos, large logos or areas of varying tone and colour, may be digitally printed onto vinyl before being applied to the front face of the sign tray. The latter technique also lends itself to the application of an anti-graffiti laminate in instances where this is deemed to be prudent.
Our aluminium sign trays are available in a wide range of standard sizes from A4 up to 1800 x 1200mm with the majority of sizes also offering a choice of shapes. We are also able to quote for non-standard shapes and sizes should the need arise.
