What are the Best Materials for Outdoor Signage?

by | Jun 15, 2021 | Signkor News & Articles

Before we outline the best materials, be assured that outdoor signage remains a great shout-out for your business. From massive billboards to backlit signage and little estate agent boards, outdoor signage speaks 24/7, advertising and creating awareness for you even while you’re home asleep.

There are many and varied types of outdoor signs available, so we will only cover the most popular.

Mobile Billboards

Even SMME’s are making use of this clever form of outdoor signage. All you need is a trailer and a frame to attach your message. You can drive it about, park it where there are many feet, or motorized traffic to huge effect.

Materials: Correx, ABS Board, Chromadek or go for PVC banners attached to the frame.

Gazebos

Brilliant for business events, roadside displays, or sports field ads. Used even on your holiday gazebo, could be selling for you while you surf.

Materials: available in various sizes, from 1 – 3 walls or a canopy-only option, waterproof materials display your outdoor signage perfectly.

Outdoor Banner Signage

Sharkfin design, telescopic pop-up, or wind-cheater banners are easy to transport, set up, and take them down again. They make branding fun and provide innumerable opportunities to expose your business.

Materials: washable, outdoor-friendly materials and support structures to match are used for this highly recommendable kind of outdoor signage.

Vehicle Signage

This is still considered outdoor signage and probably ranks as one of the most effective ways to market your brand everywhere you go.  For this form of advertising, legibility counts, so keep the sign clear and clean.

Materials: Vinyl lettering and graphics that are stuck to your vehicle (easy enough to remove if you sell vehicles or your business). Magnetic car stickers are very in vogue and that does allow you to remove them at will. While they can also be removed by anyone, they seldom are because such vagabonds would have to go to a lot of trouble to remove your logo and lettering.
