Your building sign is one of the most visible aspects of your brand. It contrasts from the façade, is larger than life, and alerts passersby to your presence. Typical signage solutions our clients might select are channel letters or box cabinets. However, many contemporary business owners now request formed plastic letters as building signs.
Why Formed Plastic?
For starters, molded plastic is a budget-friendly alternative to other signage materials. Therefore, it is an excellent option for new companies or those that need to keep a close eye on the bottom line. Secondly, consider that it comes in a wide variety of standard colors, which minimizes the danger of color fading.
Besides that, formed plastic is lightweight and could be suitable for facades where heavier materials would be inadvisable. Most clients request letters and numerals in heights ranging from four to 48 inches. If you prefer, we can mount them flush to the wall. That said, you might also elect to have them installed with standoffs.
Formed Plastic Building Letter Examples
- Shadow play. One of the most significant advantages is the opportunity to create shadow plays. Envision the use of black letters on a white façade. In addition, consider that the rising sun creates exciting shadows of the letters to boost the impression they make.
- Logo integration. Another favorite of clients is the integration of the logo with the lettering. Rather than creating a secondary product, it becomes a seamless part of the corporate persona. Our technicians recommend adding an imprinted vinyl overlay to offset this aspect of the company’s name.
- Cloud sign versus 3D letters. If you do not like the look of individual three-dimensional letters, our team can design a cloud sign that only focuses attention on the tops and bottoms of the letters. In contrast, company owners who favor the appearance of the individual letters will appreciate the looks of slightly rounded edges and possibly prismatic fronts.
- Decorative. It is a common misconception that you have to invest in expensive signage to benefit from the little decorative touches that make your building marker stand out. Instead, consider the use of formed plastic that features your unique font as well as some style elements that are pure eye candy. These signs look great, draw the eye, and perfectly serve as building signs for your brand-building efforts.
