What are Acrylic & Plastic Letters ?
Acrylic and plastic letters are three-dimensional signs crafted from durable materials such as acrylic, PVC, or formed plastic, designed to add depth, clarity, and a professional edge to any brand presentation. These letters are lightweight yet sturdy, making them a versatile solution for both indoor and outdoor signage applications.
Acrylic letters are known for their smooth, glass-like finish and crisp edges, delivering a refined and modern appearance that works perfectly for corporate interiors, showrooms, and retail environments. Plastic letters, on the other hand, offer exceptional durability and flexibility, making them ideal for large storefronts, wall displays, and long-term branding solutions.

What Are Metal Letters?
Metal letters, also known as 3 Dimensional Letters (3D), are a set of precisely cut, flat metal characters joined together to make a sign. Metal letters are fabricated using state of the art methods like CNC routing and Water Jetting.
Most commonly cut out of aluminum, metal letters are often wanted by businesses who want to radiate a high end, professional brand image. You can usually find metal letter signs mounted on the wall in an office lobby or above reception.
