A full range of external signage solutions, all fully customisable to your requirements.
The industry standard for external fascia signage. Produced on 3mm aluminium composite material (ACM), these flat signs are weatherproof and will last upwards of 7 years. Lightweight, rigid and available in any size.
The upgraded flat sign – custom-built from ACM with typically 50mm returns, giving the sign depth and making it protrude from the building for a premium, three-dimensional appearance.
Printed to the reverse of clear acrylic, these signs have a sleek, glass-like finish that looks incredibly professional. Typically installed with chrome stand-off fixings in the corners for extra visual impact.
Add real depth and drama to your fascia by incorporating 10mm acrylic letters that stand proud of the sign face. Our laser-cutting facility allows us to produce any font or logo shape to an exact standard.
Cut from solid acrylic up to 20mm thick and adhered directly to the building or sign face. Available in a wide range of standard colours with the option of custom printing to match exact brand colours.
For maximum impact, your logo or lettering can be built up from 20mm foamex to depths of 50mm or more. Paired with a printed vinyl backing, it creates a stunning three-dimensional effect on any wall surface.
Everything is designed, printed and fabricated in our Cambridgeshire facility. No middlemen, no delays, no compromise on quality.

We don't just make signs – we install them too. Our experienced fitters ensure your sign is fitted safely and looks perfect from day one.
We use only industry-standard ACM, quality vinyls and UV-stable inks, giving your sign a lifespan of 5–7+ years in outdoor conditions.
We produce all our external signage to a 5–7 working day turnaround from artwork approval, with installation booked at your convenience.
It depends on your building type and budget. As a general guide: aluminium-clad buildings work well with flat ACM signs or sign trays, while masonry and timber-frame buildings are compatible with all signage types including stand-off lettering and acrylic signs. Get in touch and we'll advise on the best option for your specific building.
As a ballpark, a standard 200cm × 60cm flat ACM sign starts from around £150 + VAT. Sign trays and dimensional options cost more depending on complexity. We'll always give you a clear, itemised quote before any work begins.
