Aluminum Composite Panel Signs
Aluminum composite panel (ACP) signs are a durable, rigid option for business signs, construction sites, property identification, wayfinding, and other applications where a clean, professional appearance is important.
Often referred to as Alupanel, ACP, Dibond® or MaxMetal® signs, aluminum composite panels consist of two thin aluminum faces bonded to a solid plastic core. The result is a lightweight, rigid panel with a smooth surface for printed graphics or cut vinyl.
Where ACP Signs Work Well
Aluminum composite is a good choice when rigidity, durability, and a professional finish are important.
Common applications include:
- Building and business signs
- Property and development signage
- Parking and directional signs
- Real estate and property management signs
- Construction signage
- Outdoor information signs
- Office and facility signage
- Retail and promotional displays
- Long-term temporary signage
- Wall-mounted signs
Whether you need a single sign or a complete signage package, every panel is custom made to suit your project.
Mounting & Installation
ACP signs can be prepared for different mounting methods, depending on where and how the sign will be installed.
Mounting options may include:
-
Pre-drilled holes: For suitable screw or bolt mounting
-
Standoffs or spacers: To create separation between the sign and mounting surface
-
Screws or other hardware: Depending on the installation requirements
-
Adhesive mounting: For suitable indoor applications
-
Other mounting preparation: Based on the sign location and supporting structure
When requesting a quote, let us know whether the sign will be mounted to a building, fence, post, wall, or another structure. This helps us determine the appropriate preparation for your project.
Choosing Between ACP & Coroplast
Both aluminum composite and Coroplast are useful sign materials, but they suit different applications.
Aluminum composite (ACP) is rigid, has a smooth surface, and offers a more permanent, professional appearance. It is often preferred for business, building, property, and longer-term signage.
Coroplast is a lightweight corrugated plastic that is generally more economical. It is a popular choice for lawn signs, real estate signs, temporary signage, and applications where lower cost and easy handling are priorities.
