Custom Acrylic Signs – Houston, TX

Houston sign Company offer two types of signs: standard surface printing and subsurface printing. Which style is right for you depends on where you want to use the sign, the kind of design you want, and the sign’s purpose.

Standard surface printing means the design is reproduced on the acrylic front. This provides a unique texture resulting in a matte finish. If you don’t want to leave blank space in front of the sign, standard surface acrylic signs will be the right choice.

With subsurface printing, otherwise known as second surface printing, the sign design is printed on the clear acrylic’s back. The design is printed in reverse so that it is visible from the front of the sign. This method provides a three-dimensional appearance, offering depth along with a glossy finish.

Though subsurface printing costs more than standard surface printing, it adds to its durability. Because sign elements are covered with a layer of acrylic, they are protected, a significant advantage if being used outdoors. If you want a glass-framed appearance for your signs, subsurface acrylic signs should be your choice.
