Create a Distinctive Space with Aluminium Printing or Custom Metal Signs
You’ve seen them everywhere – from Pottery Barn to Restoration Hardware – and it’s no wonder eye catching, custom aluminum signs are all the rage. Whether you’re aiming for an industrial farmhouse vibe or want to blend shabby-chic with a touch of modern décor, personalized metal signs are a sleek way to differentiate your space.Made from a material known as Dibond, these signs are comprised of an aluminum composite, capable of being displayed indoor or outdoor due to its strength and ability to withstand fluctuations in temperature. The aluminum finish is also coated in a thick sealant, making it rust- and rot-proof, as well as waterproof and chemically resistant. The material is also fairly lightweight, eliminating the worry of damaging walls with heavy-duty anchors or screws.
How is Dibond Used in Custom Metal Signage?
While custom surname signs, inspirational quotes, and words are hugely popular right now, there are numerous applications in which Dibond can be used. Because of the versatility and durability of the material, it can be cut into virtually any shape desired, and any logo or design can be printed on it.
We’ve created custom dibond signs for numerous applications, including:
- Indoor décor – custom wording, script fonts, quotes
- Exterior house numbers
- Interior and exterior business/office signage
- Realtor and real estate signage
In addition to using the materials to create 3-dimensional, custom shapes, words, or quotes, images can be printed on Dibond, allowing you to display photographs on this lightweight aluminium material.
How Do I Hang My Custom Metal Sign?
Because of how durable the material is and how heavy it appears, it’s easy to feel intimidated about the installation process; however, hanging Dibond creations is as simple as hanging a picture on the wall. We can pre-drill holes in your creation for easy screw installation, or we can provide screw caps for a polished look. For smaller projects, adhesive backing is also an option.
The next time you’re looking for custom DIY home décor, consider designing your own custom metal sign or printing on Dibond at Foam Core Print for a bespoke alternative to cookie-cutter, store-bought artwork.

These are the cutest!! They really can be so personable and with the customization, SO fun! I love these, I definitely will be checking them out! I’d love to add some of these as decor pieces!

These are so much fun! I really love the idea of putting your favorite prints onto a metal sign. It would be something different to hang and I’m sure would stand up to the elements if we decided to put it outside.

I have been wanting to order some signs. I wasn’t sure how I’d attach them to the wall. I see that it’s fairly easy, so I’ll be ordering some of these.

I love decorating with metal signs and have several of the in my kitchen. I think it gives my kitchen a vintage look. So fun.

I love the idea of having these types of signs. I can think of so many different ones to make for our area. My father has a collection of these signs that he has bought over the years in his man cave:)

These are really cool. We are hoping to redo our basement to be a little more fun and updated. It could be fun to get some of these signs in the basement. Great idea!

I’m in the middle of a huge restoration/remodel on a mansion block apartment and need every kind of decor item you can think of. Unfortunately, Denmark doesn’t offer nearly the selection of cool products that’s available in bigger markets and importing from outside the EU is spendy. I’d love to incorporate something like this into my kitchen!
Tamara says
These are so awesome. Our neighbors have a funny little street sign on our shared driveway, so we want to make our own. It’s a private driveway but people still get lost at the fork!
I also want to make a “Chicken Crossing” sign near our house.

That would be adorable!!
