We manufacture from stock in both 3mm ACM and 2.85mm solid aluminium sheet for road sign applications, both with Traffic Grey colour backs. 

The Aluminium Composite Material (ACM) panel is 3mm thick, with a polyethylene core sandwiched between a 0.3mm thick aluminium skin on either side. The front is not coloured, ready for graphics to be applied, whilst the back is Traffic Grey RAL 7042A.  The signs are available with or without sign fixing rails already attached.

The solid aluminium sheet is 11swg (2.85mm) thick with the reverse being RAL 7042 (Traffic Grey) on one side and is mill finished, i.e. no colour, on the other.

Corners can be cut square or rounded at no additional charge. You have the option to choose the most appropriate radius for your panel size.

We stock matching grey small or medium fixing rail. We can apply this to the  panels if required. We generally fit at 50mm shorter than the width of the panel but can be applied at your custom position. (minimum 2 rails is required). The channel is applied horizontally with VHB tape, as the manufacturers instruction, including the use of adhesion promoter.

We stock huge range of stainless steel fixings, from 13mm Mini 'D' Clips for small diameter bars, - up to 140mm diameter posts, together with a range of square & rectangular sign clips.

Other Considerations:

The ACM version is lighter & cheaper and has no theft value.

The solid aluminium is generally required by the Department of Transport for most main road signwork.
