Our aluminium composite material is the highest quality Dibond-like signage solution. ACM is made up of two 0.3mm aluminium skins sandwiched either side of a low-density polyethylene interior. With weather-resistant and waterproof properties, ACM is one of the best substrates for outdoor signage. Its incredibly rigid nature means that it can be fixed to walls or posts via screwing, riveting, or drilling.
Full-Colour Print service to produce your branding, artwork, or custom design! We then apply a high-tack adhesive laminate to your print for ultimate vibrancy, longevity, and protection, giving you a 5-year guarantee for peace of mind.
Dibond composite aluminium boards are well suited to external environments, especially due to their limited rate of expansion and contraction, even when exposed to the most extreme range of temperatures. These versatile boards are a popular choice for shop fascias, POS displays, exhibitions, property developments, and construction sites for Hoarding Boards. Its smooth surface creates a perfect substrate for ultra-high quality direct-to-panel UV printing, as well as for applying full-colour self-adhesive prints. ACM is waterproof and weather-resistant, meaning your sign will be extremely long-wearing.
You can expect our Dibond-like ACM boards to maintain their quality and vibrancy in the longer term thanks to the specialist UV-resistant inks that we use, and the high-performance overlaminate applied to your prints. We have supplied a various range of printed composite aluminium boards to market to meet all client's budgets and timeframes for display, with no compromise on quality or digital print techniques.
For an even longer-lasting external display and signage option, please check out our Aluminium Composite Board Printing with a 7-year guarantee or for temporary displays on the same great material, see our Short Term Aluminium Composite Board Printing.
They are fully customisable, so the graphics of your choice can be applied to the front and reverse of each board, leaving you with a high-impact promotional tool that’s suitable for virtually any indoor or external setting.
If you already have a design in mind for your board, you are free to send us your own artwork when you order this product and we will replicate it for you. However, if you are looking for extra help with your ACM board sign graphics, bear in mind that you have full access to our in-house Design Team who are skilled and well equipped to assist you. All you need to do is contact us and we will provide you with more information on our design services.
Sizing and Postage: Due to additional courier charges, your board may need to be cut into multiple panel pieces to allow for the most efficient postage. This will be discussed with you in advance of production, and any cut lines will be on our digital proof of your artwork. Please contact our sales team for more information.

Drill Holes: If you have any specific requirements for drilled holes in your ACM (e.g. hole diameter, distance from edges, positions), please let us know in the Notes section either in the product drop-down or at checkout. If not specified, we will supply your order with a drilled hole of 5mm in size, 20mm from the edges. please leave enough clear space so the holes do not impact on your design. Please note, when providing a measurement for the distance to the edge, we ask for a distance-to-centre of the hole. If you are providing exact hole placements as part of your artwork, all fonts must be outlined. Please make sure the holes placement marks are easily visible in your artwork.

Our designers will work with you to create a professional design to your exact specifications.

We will provide you with an artwork proof for you to approve and will never send your artwork to print without your final sign-off.
Unlike some other companies, we want to offer value for money, so we ensure that you are only charged for the actual time taken to create your design (minimum 15-minute intervals). Formatting a quick layout or checking over print-ready files may be free of charge. If more work is needed, we will contact you to discuss this.

At Creative Solutions we pride ourselves on our print quality, for that reason we run our printers as standard on 900dpi resolution. This is a high quality setting, which will produce excellent print results without banding, whilst allowing the printers to run at a speed to ensure we get your jobs through quickly. We use this print resolution across our Eco Friendly UV, Solvent and Aqueous machines. We have four roll-to-roll printers that can print up to 3.2m wide and two flatbed printers, one with white ink and gloss varnish, and a 3 x 2m flatbed printer for direct to substrate printing at speed.
We can amend settings to suit your requirements, and run at speeds of up to 60 sqm an hour for mass production where speed is a necessity, or we can print at ultra-high quality at far higher resolutions when the situation requires. Please feel free to discuss this with our sales team by email or on the telephone.
