    what material can i use for a large hanging sign?

    Posted by Ian Higgins on 20 January 2006 at 13:23

    Hi folks,

    Have to produce a large amount of 2000 x 600 signs to hang landscape from the ceiling .. just wonderd what material you would suggest?
    They are to be covered with printed images..
    Any ideas would help.

    Also does anyone know what SINTRA Board is?
    Cheers
    Ian

    Ian- Couple questions:
    1. Is this to be a long-term installation?
    2. I assume it’s inside

    I use Coroplast in the 10mm thickness for stuff like this.
    Sintra is a plastic-based rigid board. technically, it’s “closed-cell, expanded plastic, high-density polyvinylchloride
    sheet” you can get it in thicknesses from 1-13mm

    Hope this is helpful

    Sintra® is the brand name for Alusuise Composites’ rigid PVC (poly vinyl chloride) foam board2

    Do you use anyone such as Amari or Cox plastics, they may be able to help. I guess its some kind of foamex
