built up letters
Built-up lettering signage refers to letters or shapes that are cut out, built up, and crafted from materials such as metal, acrylic, or wood. These letters are then formed to create a three-dimensional effect. The result is a visually striking sign that stands out from traditional flat signage.
There are several reasons why businesses use this type of signage:
Visual Impact: The 3D effect creates a high-impact visual statement. It adds depth and shadows, making the signage more noticeable and engaging.
Versatility: Built-up lettering can be created in a variety of sizes, fonts, and colours, allowing businesses to fully customize their signage to align with their brand identity.
Durability: These signs are typically made from durable materials like metal or acrylic, making them resistant to weather conditions and ensuring they last for years.

Applications of Built-Up Lettering
3 dimensional text signage can be used in a variety of settings, including retail, corporate offices, hotels, schools and more. They can be illuminated for increased visibility, making them a great option for businesses that operate during evening hours.
There are three main types of built-up letters: face illuminated (with internal LEDs), halo illuminated (projecting a glow), and non-illuminated. Each type offers distinct visual effects, allowing you to choose the right style for your business.
With its visual impact, versatility, and durability, built-up lettering offers businesses a modern and effective way to make a lasting brand impression.
