Acrylic Printing

Premium Acrylic Board and Sign Printing

Acrylic printing is a modern technique where images are printed directly onto, or mounted behind, a sheet of transparent acrylic glass (also known as Plexiglas or Perspex). This creates a glossy finish with excellent colour vibrancy, clarity, and depth, giving images an almost three-dimensional appearance. Acrylic boards offer glass-like optical clarity combined with high impact resistance, making them a popular choice for corporate offices, retail environments, and galleries.

At The Board Printing Company, digital printing on acrylic sheet materials using flatbed UV technology is a core part of what we do. Unlike traditional paper prints mounted behind glass, our direct-to-media printing process protects the image itself, resulting in a cleaner and more durable finish. Whether you need a custom acrylic sign board for an office or a larger run of perspex blocks for a retail rollout, our production team delivers consistently high-quality results across every order.

Acrylic Sign Printing Services Across Multiple Sectors

Our acrylic signs are trusted by a diverse range of industries looking to make a lasting impression.

• Corporate & Office Branding: Nothing beats “professionalism” more than a high gloss perspex board at a reception. We offer beautiful boardroom & meeting room signs with your logo floating on clear or frosted acrylic.
• Retail & Point of Sale: Visual merchandising demands clarity. We make acrylic display blocks and free-standing perspex signs to highlight luxury products without being distracting.
• Art & Photography: For photographers who want a gallery-quality finish, acrylic prints offer depth and clarity that paper simply can’t match.
• Home & Interior Design: From splashbacks to custom wall art, printed acrylic sheets are becoming more popular for more contemporary interiors.

Benefits of Printing on Acrylic Sheet

Why choose acrylic board printing over other rigid media? Its appeal lies in the balance of visual clarity and durability it offers.

• Glass-Like Elegance: For example, printing on an acrylic sheet gives a depth and brilliance similar to glass but half the weight and ten times the impact strength.
• Weather Resistant: Perspex printing is UV stable and weatherproof, ideal for high-end outdoor signage that will not yellow over time.
• Versatile Finishes: We have clear, frosted (opal) and coloured options. You can print on one side for a textured look, or “reverse print” on the back for a high gloss, depth-defying finish.
• Durability: An acrylic sign board is tough. It does not shatter like glass and can resist scratches when treated properly.
• Custom Fabrication: Beyond simple squares, we can cut acrylic signs to any shape, including logos and lettering.

For projects that need extra thickness and stability, our 5mm acrylic sheet printing offers enhanced rigidity, sharper definition, and a premium feel ideal for professional signage.

Professional Artwork Setup for Acrylic Sign Boards

Achieving the perfect “floating” look on clear material requires specific file preparation. If you don’t have a design team, our specialists can assist with:

• White Ink Setup: When printing on acrylic sheets, especially clear ones, we often print a layer of white ink behind the colour to ensure opacity. Our team checks your files to ensure this layer is correctly set up.
• Resolution Checks: We ensure your photos are high-resolution (300dpi) so that your photobox acrylic block style prints look crisp and professional, even up close.
• Edge Polishing: For that premium finish, we ensure the edges of your perspex block or sheet are diamond-polished to crystal clarity.
