Make Your Property Easier to Identify with Aluminum Composite (Dibond) Signs
Your sign needs to remain clear from the distance where customers, visitors, or drivers will see it. The panel also needs to fit the mounting area without becoming unnecessarily heavy or bulky.
AMI Signs creates Aluminum Composite Material (ACM) signs using rigid panels with aluminum faces and a solid core. DIBOND® is a well-known brand of ACM made specifically for applications such as signs and displays. These panels provide a smooth surface for printed graphics or vinyl lettering while remaining lighter than solid aluminum.
You can use one panel to identify your business or coordinate several signs across a property. Contact us today to discuss your location, artwork, and the information you need people to see.

Use Aluminum Composite (Dibond) Signs Across Your Property
Aluminum Composite Material, commonly called ACM, uses a solid core between two thin aluminum sheets. DIBOND® is one of the best-known ACM products in the sign industry. Its combination of low weight and high rigidity makes aluminum composite panels suitable for both exterior and interior signs.
- Building Identification Panels: Place your company name and logo on a wall, storefront, entrance, or another approved area of the building. A printed or vinyl-covered ACM panel can provide a defined background when individual letters do not suit the available surface.
- Directional Signs: Guide visitors toward entrances, offices, departments, loading areas, or other destinations. The rigid panel provides a suitable surface for arrows and short directions and can work with posts, frames, or approved wall-mounted systems.
- Property Information Signs: Display business hours, site rules, building numbers, tenant information, or other notices that people need while using the property.
- Post-and-Panel Inserts: An aluminum composite panel may work within a suitable post-and-panel structure when the dimensions, supports, and mounting points allow it. We can also review replacing an outdated panel while retaining posts that remain in usable condition.
Send us photographs and measurements of the existing structure before ordering a replacement panel.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is an Aluminum Composite (Dibond) sign?
An Aluminum Composite Material, or ACM, sign uses a rigid panel made with thin aluminum faces bonded to a solid core. DIBOND® is a specific brand of ACM developed for signs, displays, and other graphic applications.
Can you cut ACM or Dibond into a custom shape?
Yes. Aluminum composite panels can be routed and shaped for sign fabrication. We will review the artwork, panel dimensions, narrow areas, edges, and mounting points before approving a custom outline.
Is an aluminum composite sign the same as solid aluminum?
No. ACM uses thin aluminum outer sheets bonded to a core rather than solid aluminum throughout. This construction gives the panel rigidity while keeping its weight lower than a comparable solid aluminum sheet.
Can you use Aluminum Composite (Dibond) signs outdoors?
Yes. Aluminum composite panels such as DIBOND® work for exterior signage when the selected product, graphics, mounting method, and location suit outdoor use. We review the expected exposure before recommending how to produce your sign.
Can you print on both sides?
We can discuss graphics on both sides when the panel and mounting system permit it. Double-sided signs often work well where people approach from opposing directions.
