Brass is a highly appealing choice that is frequently employed in the creation of cast or etched plaques, dimensional letters, and sign faces. It offers a range of finish options including Satin Brass, Polished Brass, Light Oxidation, Medium Oxidation, Dark Oxidation, and Orbital Finish. Brass exhibits excellent characteristics, such as durability, resilience, and an attractive aesthetic appeal, making it a popular material for creating visually appealing and long-lasting signage.

Zinc alloy, a versatile metal, finds common use in etched plaques and durable ADA signage featuring raised tactile text and braille. It offers a range of finish options, including Silvertone Zinc, Bronzetone Zinc, Brasstone Zinc, Two Color Painted Zinc, and Orbital Finish. With its distinctive appearance and durability, zinc is an excellent choice for creating visually appealing and functional signage.

Acrylic, a highly versatile plastic sheet, is renowned for its resilience against shock, flexing, scratching, and weathering, making it suitable for a wide range of applications. Indoors, it lends a sleek and elegant appearance that appeals to brand-conscious businesses. Outdoors, it offers the durability and tolerance required for permanent installations. While typically transparent, acrylic is available in a plethora of colors and finishes, and it is fully recyclable. It can be easily customized by spray painting in various colors and creating different face designs, polishes, and effects. Additionally, acrylic is easily fabricated into custom shapes, thicknesses, and sizes, allowing for endless possibilities in signage design.

Wood, although less commonly used in signage today, is still employed for sign faces and plaques. It offers a wide variety of textures and styles, with the option to laminate thin layers of high-quality wood onto a substrate. Wood signage exhibits a range of characteristics, including varying levels of durability, light to medium weight, and low to high expense, depending on the specific wood type and quality. Despite newer material alternatives, wood signage retains its charm and can provide a unique and rustic aesthetic to complement certain branding or environments.
