Aluminum Composite Material (ACM), often referred to as Dibond, is the preferred choice for storefronts because it is specifically engineered to withstand Saskatchewan’s extreme climate while maintaining a high-end, professional appearance.
We recommend ACM for storefront signage due to its unique construction—two aluminum sheets bonded to a polyethylene core—which offers several key advantages:
- Superior Durability: Unlike wood or coroplast, ACM won’t warp in summer heat, rot from moisture, or crack during -40°C winters. It is rust-proof and resists corrosion and UV fading for 10–15 years without needing to be painted or sealed.
- Extreme Weather Resistance: These panels are dimensionally stable through massive temperature swings and are engineered to handle high prairie wind gusts without delaminating.
- Precision Customization: Using our CNC routing technology, we can achieve ±0.01 inch accuracy for intricate lettering and custom-shaped logos, ensuring your branding is sharp and consistent.
- Long-Term Value: While materials like coroplast are temporary, ACM is a permanent investment that requires very little maintenance, providing a much higher return on investment over a decade of use.
As a locally owned and operated sign and graphic company in Regina with 35 years of experience, we handle the entire process from design to installation. We also manage permit applications to ensure your storefront meets all Regina municipal sign regulations.
Note: Permit and approval requirements vary by municipality — confirm with the City of Regina before installation. Results may vary; signage outcomes such as visibility and customer response are not guaranteed.
