Reverse Engraved Laminates
For areas where an engraved sign is not suitable or where hygiene is critical, we use reverse engraving laminate to produce a smooth, germ free surface which can be easily cleaned. This material is ideal where such surfaces are essential; such as health / medical applications, age cared and hospitality fields. With no engraving or indents to harbor bacteria, this meets all infection control standards.

Suited to both indoor and outdoor applications, this durable high impact acrylic is produced with a clear acrylic top coat, and a micro surface reverse coat which is engraved through and paint filled from the back, to produce a colour contrast, and comes in a range of colour options.
