What is Coroplast?

Coroplast is a type of corrugated plastic that provides superior resistance to the elements while being lightweight and sturdy. At Little Rock Printing™, we make our 4mm coroplast signs by using high-quality equipment to print your design on a sheet of coroplast and then cut it to the desired shape, whether it’s a square, rectangle, or a custom shape.

The great thing about coroplast is that it’s perfect for both indoor and outdoor use. Here are some of the benefits of using a coroplast sign:

  • Durability: Even though coroplast is not indestructible or intended to be displayed forever (it’s best used as a temporary sign), it can stand up to a variety of temperatures and conditions, including heat, stormy, and rainy weather. Depending on conditions, coroplast material can last up to 1-2 years. It’s also easy to clean and resistant to stains.
  • Economical: Coroplast is an uncomplicated and affordable process, making it the market’s most economical material for display.
  • Lightweight: While they’re as tough as most solid plastic signage, coroplast signs are much lighter. Their lightweight construction makes them easy to transport, distribute, and display. They’re also very easy to mount and you won’t have to worry about walls or structures collapsing under their weight.
  • Pliability: Coroplast is strong enough to lay flat on its own but malleable enough to bend, cut, and staple.
  • Versatility: There are a number of ways you can use a coroplast sign, plus you have options on how you want your sign displayed. You can have it printed single or double sided, add metal grommets for hanging purposes (which we offer), or choose a custom shape. Plus, it’s fully customizable: bold colors, font options, or adding graphics or logos.

The goal of a coroplast sign is to engage customers and make a lasting impression. Let’s dive into 5 different ways you can use a coroplast sign to fit your business needs.

Promoting Sales & Specials

Coroplast signs are perfect for spotlighting promotions and sales. Their vibrant colors and eye-catching designs can attract attention and draw customers into your restaurant, retail store or other business. Place them strategically both inside and outside your business to maximize visibility and drive foot traffic during promotional periods.

List Your Products & Services

Coroplast signs allow you to showcase the products and services you offer. You can include product details, pricing, and more in a colorful and creative way—especially if you’re wanting to feature a NEW product or service.

This is a great option for medical offices, spa centers, car washes and any other business that has a long list of service offerings that customers regularly use or ask about.

Displaying Business Hours & Info

You can also use a coroplast sign to display key information like your business or event hours, your website, and contact information like a phone number. A variety of business types can use a coroplast sign this way, including restaurants, retail stores, doctor’s offices, concerts or festivals, trade shows, etc.

Placing these signs near entrances or high-traffic areas ensures that customers can easily access the information they need, enhancing their overall experience with your business.

Directing Traffic or Guiding Customers

Coroplast signs are invaluable for directing traffic flow or guiding customers within your establishment. Use them to mark aisles, indicate parking areas, or provide directions to different sections of your business. Clear signage can prevent confusion and frustration, leading to a smoother and more pleasant experience for your customers.

Enhancing Brand Visibility

Another way to use a coroplast sign for your business is to increase brand awareness and visibility. Fun fact: due to its weather-resistant nature, several billboards are made of coroplast. That’s a great way to catch a customer’s attention and it’s hard to miss seeing it.

Incorporating your company’s logo, brand colors and slogan into your signage reinforces your brand identity. This is also an opportunity to include your website URL or a phone number.
