Frontlit signage relies on a few materials working together, not just one. The letter faces are built in acrylic, since it lets LED light pass through evenly and gives that bright front glow the format is known for. The side returns and trims on 3D letters are usually done in aluminium or channelium, both lightweight and rust-resistant, which keeps the structure clean without adding unnecessary weight.

For a more corporate, premium look, we combine laser-cut acrylic faces with a stainless steel trim instead, a build that holds up well for offices and brands wanting a more durable, high-end finish. Retail storefronts, restaurants, and corporate offices are the clients who typically choose frontlit signage, it’s the format built for visibility, the letters themselves are the light source, not just something lit from behind.

Whether you want the lighter aluminium build or the steel-and-acrylic combination for a more corporate feel, we’ll help you land on the right materials for your space and budget.
