When representing your business, you need a sign that speaks to your brand and attracts the right customers. Alupanel signs, more commonly known as metal or aluminum composite signs, are a great type of signage to add to your marketing mix for a few reasons. For starters, alupanel signs are composed of industry-leading substrate materials aka weatherproof material. For businesses that operate in the rainy Seattle area, this is a great advantage for you. Your sign will withstand all the seasons for years to come! Secondly, they are incredibly durable. Being able to trust your storefront custom signage in Mukilteo or Lake Stevens to withstand any storm is a reassuring thought. Finally, they are fully customizable! Depending on who you work of course. At Vinyl Lab NW our well-seasoned designers specialize in custom alupanel signs throughout the greater Seattle area and can reassure you there is no limit on what we can create. The options are endless!
When you work with our team, your goals become our goals. Our talented team can bring versatility to you because we design in-house, apply custom die-cut lettering ourselves, offer full-color printed vinyl graphics, and can even add a 3D element to your custom alupanel sign.

FAQs
1. What is an Alupanel sign?
Alupanel is an aluminum composite panel: two thin aluminum sheets bonded to a solid core. It’s rigid, lightweight, and perfect for long-term indoor and outdoor signage.
2. How long do Alupanel signs last outdoors?
With proper installation, they commonly last 5–10 years or more thanks to their weather resistance and stability.
3. Are Alupanel signs weatherproof?
Yes. They resist rain, UV, warping, and rust, making them ideal for storefronts, building signs, construction sites, and parking lots.
4. What sizes are available?
We custom-cut Alupanel to your exact size—single panels up to standard sheet sizes (like 10’x5′) and custom shapes using precision CNC cutting.
5. Can you print full color on Alupanel?
Yes. We direct-print high-resolution full color graphics with our HP Latex technology for vibrant, durable, low-maintenance signs.
6. Is Alupanel better than standard aluminum?
For many applications, yes. It’s lighter, more rigid, and less prone to oil-canning than single-sheet aluminum while offering great durability.
7. Where are Alupanel signs commonly used?
Building IDs, storefronts, construction site signs, directional signs, tenant panels, and long-term outdoor branding.
8. Can you make double-sided Alupanel signs?
Absolutely. We can print one or both sides for visibility from multiple directions.
