Aluminum signs are ideal for both indoor and outdoor use. They give you the strength and durability of metal, but because they are aluminum, they never rust. Each sign is sealed with a tough plastic laminate to resist sunlight and the toughest weather conditions for up to 8 years outdoors. Aluminum signs can also tolerate high temperatures (up to 2120 F/ 1000C) and years of chemical spills, wash downs and cleanings with ease.
What are the recommended applications?
Aluminum is the ideal choice for small real estate and traffic signs. Aluminum can be used for up to 4' x 8' signs when supported on all edges.

Alumalite is strong and lightweight. It’s the same weight as .040 aluminum sheet metal, tipping the scales at just 24 lbs. However, Alumalite is over 50 times stronger for a 4' x 8' sheet. Alumalite has an average outdoor life expectancy of 10 years (when properly installed). Econolite sign panels have one painted aluminum side. The other side is a light gauge, aluminum backer. When properly supported on 24" centers, Econolite can be used for post and panel and/or billboard applications.
What is it made of?
The core is a high density, corrugated polyallomer (CPA), that will not swell, wick water, corrode, rot, or delaminate even under prolonged water exposure, making it perfect for all outdoor applications. Both faces are high-gloss painted aluminum for rigidity and to minimize warping. Alumalite features factory baked, acrylic-painted aluminum faces for high gloss brilliance and is warranted not to crack, chip, flake or peel.
What are the recommended applications?
All outdoor applications including: post and panel, hanging, wall/fence mount, multiple panel signs, point of purchase displays, cut-outs, channel letters, kiosk, laser printing, score boards, silk-screening and more.
