FAQ

What are PVC signs (and what is Sintra board)?

PVC sign boards are rigid plastic panels made from PVC foam board. “Sintra” is a popular name for this material. It’s lightweight, stays flat, and prints with vibrant colors.

Are PVC signs suitable for outdoor use?

Yes, especially for short to medium durations. Outdoor durability depends on sun exposure, wind, and mounting method. For long-term outdoor signage, we often recommend substrates like aluminum or Dibond.

What thickness should I choose?

Typical thicknesses are 1/8", 1/4", and 1/2". Thinner panels work well indoors; thicker panels are better for larger sizes or windy locations. Share your size and mounting plans, and we’ll recommend the best option.

How do PVC signs compare to acrylic signs?

PVC is an affordable, lightweight rigid panel ideal for events and everyday signage. Acrylic is heavier with a more premium, glass-like finish—better suited for upscale interior branding.
