ACM / aluminium composite material
A rigid, stable panel commonly used for flat signs and trays. Different grades and finishes are available; suitability depends on the construction and environment.
Purple Frog Signs produces workplace, site, public-area and operational signs using client-approved wording and symbols. We can help organise a consistent visual system and select suitable materials, but the responsible organisation must determine its legal duties and the signs required by its risk assessments and competent advisers.
Available for projects across Kent, London, Surrey, Sussex, Essex and the wider South East.
Safety-critical information requires legible type, recognised symbols where applicable, strong contrast, appropriate location and sufficient size. Branding can support consistency but must not weaken the intended message or make an official symbol ambiguous.
Material and fixing depend on whether the sign is indoor or outdoor, permanent or temporary, wall-mounted or freestanding, exposed to impact or cleaning, and likely to change. Photoluminescent, reflective, tamper-resistant or fire-performance requirements must be explicitly identified and supported by the selected product documentation.
Purple Frog Signs supplies signs to the specification and approved content agreed with the client. The client remains responsible for identifying applicable legal, fire, access, safety and operational requirements and for obtaining competent advice where needed.
Send the site postcode, photographs, approximate dimensions, quantity, required wording, brand files, preferred timescale and whether you need design, removal, delivery or installation. It is fine if the material or construction is not yet decided.
