Near Regina’s major roads and highways, winter road salt creates a corrosive spray that can quickly damage standard signage. This environment leads to premature fading, rust, and structural failure if the correct materials are not utilized.
To combat these harsh conditions, we prioritize salt-spray-resistant materials that are specifically engineered for durability in high-visibility corridors. Our approach includes:
- Aluminum Composite Panels (ACP): Substrates like Dibond provide a rigid, weather-ready surface that will not warp or oxidize, even when regularly exposed to de-icing chemicals.
- Acrylic Storefront Signs: We use high-quality acrylic, such as Plexiglas, which resists the hazing and clouding often caused by salt spray, ensuring your branding remains clear and professional.
- Powder-Coated Aluminum Frames: These frames add an extra layer of protection against corrosion to further safeguard your investment.
As a locally owned and operated sign and graphic company in Regina with 35 years of experience, we understand these local challenges firsthand. We handle the entire process from design to installation with strict attention to detail to ensure your signage withstands our harsh winters.
Note: Permit and approval requirements for signs near highways vary by municipality. Non-compliant signs may incur penalties, so it is essential to confirm requirements with the City of Regina before installation.
