Why Alumacore temporary signage is a good choice. Does your business need a “Coming Soon,” “Under Construction,” or some other type of outdoor temporary sign? If so, I’m sure you want a sign that looks professional, one that isn’t easily damaged by the elements, but doesn’t cost an arm and a leg, right? Of course, you do! We have the answer— Alumacore temporary signage.
What’s Alumacore?
Alumacore is constructed of two smooth sheets of aluminum bonded to a corrugated plastic core. This rigid material has all the strength of a metal sign but is much lighter in weight. Alumacore temporary signage is an excellent choice for short-term outdoor signage and more.
Adhesive vinyl graphics can be designed, printed, and applied to both sides of an Alumacore sign or; these signs can also be printed on directly. Alumacore temporary signage can be sizes to meet your needs, but a sheet of Alumacore comes in a 48″ x 96″ sheet. Larger signs can be created by attaching panels together. Alumacore is also available in several finishes, including painted, brushed aluminum, and bronze.
Advantages of Alumacore
Alumacore is durable and lightweight (about half the weight of a solid aluminum sign), a combination not easily found. It resists adverse weather well and doesn’t bow or bend in the wind. The other advantage of Alumacore is that it looks professional. Unlike many other temporary sign materials, Alumacore doesn’t look cheap.
Being lightweight Alumacore temporary signage is easier to transport and install than many other types of signage. Another advantage of Alumacore is these signs require little or no maintenance.
Alumacore is used in a variety of ways as Sign Builder Illustrated states, “One of the many great features of ACM panels…is the product’s ability to be scored, folded, and then transformed into dimensional shapes. The formed shapes are perfect for building point-of-purchase displays, lobby signs, tradeshow exhibits, back lit signs, lighted sign cabinets, architectural elements, and more.”
Can Alumacore Be Used for More Permanent Signage?
Yes, it can. We’ve produced Alumacore signs for storefronts, office buildings, and restaurants that have been up for several years.
Where Can Alumacore Temporary Signage Be Used?
Alumacore signs are often seen at construction sites but have many uses. Unlike signs made from various other materials, including plywood and corrugated plastic, Alumacore doesn’t look like a cheap temporary sign. It’s outer surface is smooth and ready for applied graphics. These signs may be mounted directly on buildings or attached to posts.
Alumacore signs are versatile and can be used for:
- POP (Point of Purchase)
- Construction signs
- Coming Soon signs
- Remodeling signs
- Parking lot signage
- Lobby signs
- Retail signage
- Architectural and office signs
- Trade shows displays
- Directional signage

Can Alumacore Signs Be Used Inside?
Although Alumacore signs are known for outdoor use due to their weather-resistant construction, Alumacore signs can also be used indoors. An attractive method of attaching an Alumacore sign to an interior wall is by using standoffs. A standoff is made up of a wall screw, barrel, and cap. The screw goes into the wall and is covered by the barrel. Holes are then drilled in the Alumacore sign for the screw and barrel. The cap is attached to the screw on the exterior of the sign. Standoffs can be manufactured from many materials, including aluminum, brass, and nylon.
If your business needs a temporary sign but doesn’t want one that looks temporary, then Alumacore temporary signage is your answer.
