Economical Panels for Interior Signs and Changeable Displays

Polystyrene is a thin rigid plastic used for retail inserts, menu panels, promotional graphics, information signs, and other interior applications that need a smooth print surface at an economical price.

The Sign Catalog prints polystyrene from print-ready artwork and can cut panels to fit frames, holders, tracks, fixtures, or direct-mount applications.
