Product Description
What are Acrylic Signs?
Acrylic signs, also known as plexiglass signs, are a glass-like signage medium used for a host of purposes. The smooth material, when printed, offers a sleek visual solution that enhances its environment. Custom acrylic signs, similar to aluminum signs, are lightweight, durable, and shatter-resistant signs suitable for indoor and outdoor use.
Most plexiglass signs are usually made of a clear material. However, Square Signs offers acrylic signs in a variety of thicknesses and colors. We offer clear, frosted, black, black transparent, mirror gold, and white acrylic signs in thicknesses of ⅛", ¼", and ⅜".
Custom acrylic signs are most commonly used in commercial spaces. They’re usually seen in corporate headquarters, retail stores, offices, wedding venues, hotels, and other similar places. This doesn’t mean that people can’t order acrylic signs for their homes. People might want to have a photograph printed on acrylic, for instance. Our acrylic photo prints are the perfect medium for that purpose.

Types of Acrylic Signs
We offer six base materials for your custom acrylic signs. Each one makes your sign suitable for a specific use.
Clear Acrylic Signs
This material is printed with second-surface printing. This implies that your design is reverse-printed onto the rear surface of the material. Thus, the visuals are seen through the material, giving them a glossy finish.
White Acrylic Signs
These direct-printed acrylic signs feature an opaque white finish that enhances the visibility of texts and designs printed on them. The contrast between the visuals and the white base material makes it stand out in any environment.
Black Acrylic Signs
Black acrylic signs feature a black tint that emphasizes any light-colored designs printed on them. They look especially great when white or gold designs are printed on them. The main use case for these signs is for branding purposes or decor.
Frosted Acrylic Signs
These custom acrylic signs have a clear base with a sandblasted finish. Any crystal-clear design printed on this material contrasts wonderfully with the etched base, keeping focus on the vibrant visuals. The material allows light through even while obscuring its background.
Black Transparent Acrylic Signs
This base material provides unmatched elegance. The black base material of this variant is quite see-through. While the base material may show a bit of your acrylic sign’s background, it also ensures heightened visibility for your visuals.
Gold Acrylic Signs
These mirror gold acrylic signs are most commonly used at weddings as either greeting boards or seating charts. The glossy gold material is printed with matte ink, providing a beautiful contrast when used at any event or occasion.

Printing of Acrylic Signs
We use quality UV-cured inks to make the graphics sun-resistant. You can choose between single or double-sided printing options to personalize your designs. The single-sided printing is available for all types of acrylic printing, while double-sided printing is offered only for the black opaque option.
Standard printing involves applying the graphics directly onto the material, resulting in a matte finish. Second-surface printing, on the other hand, is a reverse printing method that preserves the glossy surface of transparent items. The design is printed on the back, making it visible from the front, and is only available for the clear acrylic material.
