Trade shows come in all shapes and sizes, but whether you're setting up a stall to sell your fine art, custom tools or handmade jewelry, you'll need some attractive, eye-catching signage to draw attention to your stall and raise awareness of your own unique brand. While many stallholders are content with printing their name on a rudimentary cardboard sign, going the extra mile and having signs professionally made will help you stand out from the crowd.
Perspex signs are particularly well suited for independent business owners frequenting trade shows. This unique material has a number of properties that help perspex signs distinguish themselves, and the stallholders who use them, from the competition:
Distinctive looks
Perspex signs are unique in that they can be made transparent, lending a thoroughly modern and sophisticated look to your signage and, by extension your stall and the wares you sell. They are particularly appropriate for trade shows stallholders specialising in luxury and/or electronic goods, such as custom-built computers or motorboats.
Durability
Perspex signs are immensely durable, and can withstand a severe beating without shattering, denting or fading. Accidentally dropping your signs occasionally as you put them up will pose no problems, even on hard concrete surfaces. They are especially useful for trade shows held in the great outdoors, as they are thoroughly weather-resistant and can withstand high winds, heavy rains and prolonged periods of intense sunshine without having their looks marred.
Lightweight
The tough acrylic plastics used to make perspex are far lighter than other potential sign materials, such as glass, timber or aluminium, and even large perspex signs designed to span the width of your trade show stall are light enough to carry by hand. A lone stallholder can therefore put up their signs without assistance or special equipment as they set up their stall.
Variety of designs available
Perspex signs really shine when it comes to aesthetic versatily, and they can be made in almost any shape or size you can imagine. You also have a number of options when it comes to printing names, logos and information on your signs; simple vinyl decals are inexpensive and durable, but for an added touch of class you might consider having designs and logos screen-printed directly onto the perspex, or even have your information engraved in it's surface for a distinctive three-dimensional look.
Inexpensive
Despite all of these advantages, perspex signs can be surprisingly inexpensive, especially if you order multiple signs at one time. They are far less expensive than other sign materials offering comparable durability and longevity, such as aluminium, and since they are so lightweight they are far less expensive to transport.
