What is a material grade, anyway?
First, you chose a type of sign material for your signage — aluminum, acrylic, etc. Now it's time choose the grade of material.
The grade of material describes to the level of color protection on your outdoor sign. All of our sign materials are of outstanding quality and will most often outlast the colors on your sign, despite the grade you choose.
This is because our sign materials are made to last a long time. Aluminum, for example, will last decades. But the pigments in the vinyl graphics that are laid on your sign material will naturally fade with time, the sun and other elements. This is why we offer the extra protection of high quality grades.
So what are my options?
We offer three grades of material at TheSignChef
*Economy
*Standard
*Premium
Each grade of material is rated for durability. You'll pick your grade based on how long you'd like your sign to last.
Economy Grade signs are uncoated and rated to last up to three years outdoors. You should choose economy grade if your sign is not for permanent use or if you need to change the design on your sign often. With economy grade, you are relying only on the strength of the pigments in the vinyl graphics. If you're happy with replacing or getting rid of your outdoor sign after three years, choose economy grade.
Standard Grade signs are coated in scratch resistant, clear Dura—Shield UV Protective Laminate and rated to last up to five years outdoors. Standard Grade is the right choice for you if you want more protection against the elements and more durability.
Premium Grade signs are coated in Premium Grade 3M UV Protective Laminate and rated to last six to eight years outdoors. They have maximum protection and endure extreme temperatures very well. Premium grade is right for you if you're looking for a more permanent outdoor sign and the highest level of durability.
If you're still not sure what grade of material to use...
Try to look strictly at how long you want your sign to last. The other stuff isn't as important.
