📚 Expert Guide: Signage Materials & Care
Material Specifications
Understanding the materials we use is crucial for choosing the right sign for your needs. At Niagara Stands Out, we only use industrial-grade substrates designed for Canadian weather.
1. 13oz Scrim Vinyl (Banners)
Our standard banner material is a 13oz high-tenacity polyester mesh sandwiched between two layers of PVC. This construction provides excellent tear resistance and durability.
- Weight: 13oz per square yard
- Finish: Matte (reduces glare) or Gloss (vibrant colors)
- Temperature Rating: -30°C to +70°C
- Lifespan: 3-5 years outdoors
- Best For: Grand openings, temporary promotions, events
2. 4mm Coroplast (Yard Signs)
Coroplast is a corrugated plastic sheet that is lightweight, waterproof, and shock-absorbent. It is the industry standard for real estate and election signs.
- Thickness: 4mm (approx. 3/16")
- Structure: Fluted core for H-stake insertion
- Recyclability: 100% Recyclable (Code 5 PP)
- Lifespan: 1-2 years outdoors
- Best For: Lawn signs, directional signage, short-term advertising
3. Aluminum Composite Panel (ACP)
Also known as Dibond, this premium material consists of two thin aluminum sheets bonded to a solid polyethylene core. It is rigid, perfectly flat, and rust-proof.
- Thickness: 3mm standard
- Finish: Baked enamel for long-term color retention
- Rigidity: High (does not warp)
- Lifespan: 5-10+ years outdoors
- Best For: Permanent storefront signs, parking signs, hoarding
Care & Maintenance Instructions
Proper care extends the life of your signage significantly. Follow these guidelines to keep your signs looking new.
Cleaning
- Do: Use a soft cloth or sponge with warm water and a mild, non-abrasive detergent (like dish soap).
- Don't: Use harsh chemicals, solvents, or alcohol-based cleaners, as these can damage the UV ink.
- Don't: Use pressure washers on vinyl banners or coroplast, as the high pressure can lift the ink or damage the substrate.
Storage (Banners)
- Roll, Don't Fold: Always roll your banner with the print side facing OUT. Folding causes permanent creases and can crack the ink.
- Keep Dry: Ensure the banner is completely dry before rolling to prevent mold and mildew.
- Temperature: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
Installation Tips
Installing Vinyl Banners
To prevent wind damage, it is critical to secure all grommets. Using bungee cords is recommended as they provide tension while allowing some "give" during high winds. Never hang a banner by the corners only; distribute the tension evenly.
Installing Yard Signs
Insert the H-stake into the flutes of the coroplast first. Then, step on the cross-bar of the stake to drive it into the ground. Do not push down on the sign itself, as you may bend the flutes.
Sustainability Commitment
Niagara Stands Out is committed to reducing our environmental footprint. We use UV-curable inks that emit low VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds). Our coroplast scraps are recycled, and we offer a recycling take-back program for old aluminum signs. By manufacturing locally in Fort Erie, we also significantly reduce the carbon emissions associated with shipping compared to ordering from overseas or distant suppliers.
🔧 Technical FAQ
What is "Bleed"?
Bleed refers to printing that goes beyond the edge of the sheet before trimming. In other words, the bleed is the area to be trimmed off. We require a 0.125" bleed on all files to ensure there are no white borders on your final product.
What is "Resolution"?
For large format printing, we recommend a resolution of 150 DPI (dots per inch) at full size. While 300 DPI is standard for small brochures, large signs are viewed from a distance, so 150 DPI provides crisp quality without creating unmanageably large file sizes.
Vector vs. Raster
Vector (EPS, AI, PDF): Made of mathematical lines and curves. Can be scaled infinitely without losing quality. Best for logos and text.
Raster (JPG, PNG, TIFF): Made of pixels. Will become blurry (pixelated) if enlarged too much. Best for photographs.
