Channel letter signs are an increasingly popular form of business signage. Available both illuminated and non-illuminated versions, channel letters can come in an assortment of sizes that can fit indoor or outdoor needs. Custom pan-channel letters may also be an option that provide indoor/outdoor versatility.
Channel Letter Signs feature plastic faces made of various hues or translucent materials that can be painted. A molded cover snaps over its base to diffuse light; logos or other graphics can even be inscribed onto this surface.
LED Channel Letters
These illuminated three-dimensional letters are among the most widely used types of channel letters, as they’re highly visible day and night. Additionally, their illuminated three-dimensional letters are more durable than neon illuminated channels and require less maintenance over time; furthermore, LED modules use smaller transformers resulting in significant electricity savings over time.
Logo boxes or contour LED channel signs, commonly referred to as logo boxes, can be designed in any contoured letter style or custom logo created from anodized aluminum with PC light diffuser, end caps and mounting brackets attached for ease of installation and long term savings on electrical bills. While more costly than neon illuminated channel letters initially, contour LED signs create long term electrical bill savings over time.
Front lit channel letters are an iconic style of sign that utilize either neon gas tubes or LED modules to illuminate an acrylic face, with 85-95% of illumination being transmitted through it. A trim cap keeps both components together.
Formal Channel Letters
An illuminated channel letter sign is an excellent way to draw passersby’s attention and emphasize your business location. Ideal for storefronts, strip malls and office walls alike, illuminated channel letter signs can easily draw in passersby and are easy to customize and require minimal maintenance throughout its lifetime.
Standard channel letters are three dimensional graphic sign elements composed of an aluminum back, or can, and face. The can is typically formed into the desired letter or logo shape by using computer-controlled routers, laser cutters or water jet cutters before attaching translucent or transparent faces as per desired effect. Non-illuminated, front lit or back-lit options may be chosen according to desired effect.
Epoxy resin channel letters feature an epoxy resin face, metal returns and LED lighting within. Their appearance resembles that of front-lit acrylic channel letters but are much more durable and economical; additionally, two resin layers help diffuse inner lighting to make it brighter and more noticeable.
Conventional Channel Letters
Conventional channel letters, often referred to as back-lit or halo-lit signage solutions, provide businesses with an effective signage option that makes a statement, enhances visibility and brand recognition and helps boost sales and customer traffic. Illuminated channel letters stand out at night, increasing sales while simultaneously increasing customer traffic – as their customized options and energy efficient illumination help keep costs at a minimum.
Formed channel letters have a plastic backer with an arched lip that snaps to an acrylic facepiece made of translucent, light-diffusing colored plastic that projects light from both front and sides of the letter. The plastic face may be painted using cut vinyl to produce various colors or create a halo effect; returns can also be welded, flanged or riveted together or tied together using galvanized or stainless steel wire for more stability.
Direct wholesale channel letters can help increase storefront visibility, brand recognition and sales for businesses looking to boost them. You can customize them according to color, font style and mounting options based on a business’s individual branding guidelines.
Dimensional Letters
Dimensional letters are letters or numbers made out of metals or plastics which have been cast, molded, fabricated or cut out to create three dimensional signs. Usually internally illuminated and attached to sign panels or monuments for display purposes.
Solid cut metal letters offer an economical and effective means of creating high quality signage. Constructed of flat cut aluminum, these letters can be powder coated or painted to meet any color specification in order to make high quality signs that stand out in any environment.
Routed metal signs bring an industrial vibe to any office space. Their classic appearance exudes professionalism while their distinct brushed metal finish sets you apart from your competition. Illuminated interior dimensional letters are becoming more popular as well, providing bold appeal that grabs passersby’s attention.
