DiBond - What is it?
DiBond is a metal substrate that is recyclable, lightweight, and sturdy. It is resistant to weather and rust. Although it is lightweight, DiBond is one of the most rugged sign materials available.

DiBond is available in a variety of lengths, widths and thicknesses, and comes in sheets up to 1500 x 3000mm (4' x 8').
Thicknesses
The stocked thickness for DiBond is commonly 3mm gauge, but is also available in 1mm and 2mm gauges.
Value-Enhancing
There are several ways you can increase the value and effectiveness of your corrugated plastic signs:
- Adding striping and/or borders
- Using additional lettering colours
- Adding a logo
- Using a graphic symbol
- Designing custom applications
- Using frames or stakes
Installation and Care
When installing your DiBond sign, take precautionary measures. While the baked enamel finish is extremely resilient to weather, it is brittle and scratches easily.
DiBond signs may be displayed in several ways, including:
- Fixed to posts
- Framed and staked
- Adhered to walls
- Formed into Trays for faceless fixing
- Wired to fencing
