Rigid signs built for long-term display

Aluminium composite, often known by the brand name Dibond, is a rigid 3mm panel made of two aluminium sheets around a polyethylene core. Your design is printed in full colour on self-adhesive vinyl and applied to the face, on one side or both. It is weather-resistant and made for signs that stay up, indoors or out, in sizes up to 2.44m × 1.22m per sheet. Choose from a plain trim, drilled holes, rounded corners, shape cutting and gloss or dry-wipe lamination. A real person checks your artwork before anything is printed.

Made to order — if you are working to a date, tell us when you order and we'll confirm before we print

Best for

Shopfront signs, site boards and wayfinding that need to last, indoors or out

Artwork made easy

Every order includes a free artwork check by a real person — you don't need to ask. If we spot a problem, we'll contact you before anything gets printed.

Supply a print-ready CMYK PDF with fonts outlined or embedded. If you are ordering a shape-cut panel, include the cut line in your file, or send us what you have and we'll help set it up.

Your artwork needs a 3mm bleed on every edge. Run your background out to it so no white edges show once it’s hemmed or trimmed. Crop marks aren’t needed; if your software adds them, keep them outside the bleed, and leave out any keylines or trim lines.

Every order plants trees

The panel is fully recyclable at the end of its life. Through our Print A Tree project with Ecologi, every Printlogik order funds verified reforestation — free, automatic, every time. See the forest grow →
