Flat Cut Letters

Custom Perspex Letters for Professional Wall Branding

Acrylic cut letters, also known as Perspex letters or flat cut letters, are precision-finished, laser-cut 3D or flat-cut letters available in solid, translucent, or edge-lit colours. They can be installed using adhesive fixing or stud mounting. Unlike a traditional acrylic sign board, which displays branding on a flat surface, acrylic cut letters introduce physical depth and architectural presence directly onto the wall. They add quality and dimension for businesses seeking professional, long-lasting, low-maintenance signage that resists fading and weathering.

At The Board Printing Company, we offer laser-cut acrylic letters with exceptional accuracy. Perspex letters are cut with precision at our advanced facility in Perivale. Whether you require 10mm thick clear letters for a corporate lobby or bright acrylic flat cut letters for a retail display, we deliver bespoke 3D branding designed to stand out.

Laser Cut Acrylic Letters for High-Impact Interior Signage

While a printed sign is functional, acrylic cut letters offer a level of sophistication and permanence that flat graphics simply cannot match:

1. Instant visual impact: Flat cut letters add real depth, moving your brand off the wall and into the space. The physical thickness creates natural shadows and highlights that shift throughout the day, giving the sign a solid, lived-in feel.
2. Laser-polished edges: Industrial laser cutting heat-seals the edges of perspex letters, producing a smooth, clear finish that matches the face. This avoids the dull or rough edges often seen with saw- or router-cut letters.
3. Unlimited colour choice: Acrylic is available in a wide range of solid colours, from corporate tones to neons. Letters can also be spray-painted to Pantone references or face-vinyl applied for precise colour matching.
4. Flexible mounting options: Acrylic flat cut letters can be supplied with high-strength VHB tape for direct fixing to smooth surfaces, or with snap-fix locators to create a 10–20mm floating effect, ideal for reception signage.

For most reception and interior branding projects, 5mm acrylic offers the ideal balance of rigidity, edge clarity and visual depth without excessive weight.

Applications of Acrylic Cut Letters Across Different Sectors

Our acrylic cut letters printing and fabrication service is utilised across every sector:

• Corporate Receptions: The classic “Company Name” behind the reception desk is almost always perspex letters. We often use 10mm clear acrylic or white acrylic to create a clean, professional look that instils confidence in visitors.
• Retail Fascias: High street shops use flat cut letters for their main outdoor signage. Acrylic is tough enough to withstand London weather and pollution without corroding like metal. It can also be illuminated by trough lights or halo LEDs for night-time visibility.
• Exhibition Stands: Exhibitors use lightweight acrylic laser cut letters to add branding to their shell schemes. Because they are light, they can be stuck to temporary walls with Velcro or tape and removed easily at the end of the show.
• Interior Decor: We produce large inspirational words or quotes for office walls (e.g., “INNOVATE” or “TEAMWORK”) using cut out acrylic letters.  

If long-term durability and material performance are key considerations for your signage, our guide on the reasons to choose acrylic for long-lasting signage explains why Perspex remains the preferred choice for permanent branding.
