Facade signs
Use your house wall as an advertising sign – with a facade sign!
Don’t let your customers wander around looking for you. Make it easy for them to find you: with your logo on the outside wall. Mark your territory – with a facade sign that is visible from afar. Our excellently printed, light-resistant and weatherproof exterior wall facade signs show everyone where to go!
So go ahead: Put your logo on the wall with a facade sign from the digital printing factory!
When it comes to facade signs, “size is key!”, but also “less is more”.
Of course, size is important when it comes to facade advertising! The bigger the sign, the more attention it can attract. We can produce customized facade signs in the size you want. At the same time, however, no one can read a novel while walking or driving past. That’s why the following applies to facade advertising for the text and other design elements: less is more.
The digital printing factory’s recommendation for facade signs is therefore:
When it comes to dimensions, you can go big or go home: facade advertising should be as large as possible. For facade lettering, on the other hand, keep it short! You should also use other graphic elements sparingly; too much clutter is just distracting. You can be even more generous when it comes to the dimensions of the letters and your logo: no one should have to pull out a magnifying glass to decipher your facade sign.
Stylish, stable and durable: it’s all about the material.
Sometimes the sun beats down on the building wall and facade sign, sometimes hailstones pelt them, and the day after tomorrow a snowstorm might sweep over the house wall… Facade signs are exposed to wind and weather every day.
To ensure that such external influences leave as few marks as possible on your sign, the carrier material of such outdoor advertising media must be particularly temperature-resistant and stable. That is why we at the digital printing factory only recommend the following materials for facade signs:
- aluminum composite panels from 3 mm
- aluminum composite Butler finish
- acrylic glass from 5 mm
Even longer impressive: the foil printing process makes it possible
Facade lettering should be impressive for a long time. In addition to the sign material, the printing process used is also crucial. For long-lasting facade advertising, we recommend the particularly robust and durable foil printing, in which a printed foil coated with UV varnish and scratch-resistant laminate is firmly glued to the base plate. A facade sign produced in this way can last up to seven years.
Alternatively, we also offer direct plate printing. The facade signs produced using this process are particularly inexpensive; however, they only last about three years. You can find detailed information on the advantages and disadvantages of the two printing processes in the facade sign FAQs below.

Frequently Asked Questions
You have the questions, we have the answers!
Our exterior wall sign materials have a lot in common: They are all extremely resistant to weather influences or mechanical damage. The low weight of the high-tech materials makes them much easier to install than previous company signs. They are naturally resistant to moisture and are also dirt-repellent and easy to clean. The main difference is the appearance:
Acrylic glass company signs impress with their extremely smooth, very stable surface in glass look – without the many disadvantages or the weight of a real glass plate. You can choose between a frosted glass or opaque white glass look as the basis for your facade sign.
Facade signs made of aluminum composite panels consist of a stable plastic core with a double-sided aluminum coating. We offer these modern aluminum panels with a single-colored matt or glossy aluminum front or (under the name “Butler finish”) with a silver or gold-colored, brushed aluminum front panel.
For particularly long-lasting, extremely weather-resistant facade lettering, we recommend the foil printing process with a durability of five to seven years. Here, your artwork is first printed on a vinyl adhesive film, which is then coated with various protective and hardening varnishes – UV protection against fading, protective laminate against scratches and other damage. This foil-varnish combination is then firmly glued onto the selected sign material. This means that your facade sign is optimally protected against external influences, weather and mechanical damage and looks particularly elegant. In contrast to plate printing, foil printing allows the facade sign to have both a matt and a high-gloss look.
The plate printing process eliminates various production steps, so we can offer you these facade signs at a particularly low price: The ink is sprayed directly onto the panel material, then immediately dried with UV light and hardened several times. The printed image is elegantly satin-matt. With effect panels such as the aluminum composite Butlerfinish, UV direct printing achieves particularly striking results: The translucent printing ink combines with the metallic background color, creating exciting effects. In addition, white color can of course be used to completely or partially back or overprint. The durability of the plate-printed facade signs is on average around three years; we therefore recommend this printing process especially for short and medium-term projects and also if you can attach your sign in a protected outdoor area.
Don’t worry, the colors and panels we use always match each other perfectly from a technical perspective – so which facade sign material you choose remains your personal aesthetic decision.
Plate printing on the Butlerfinish plates produces particularly effective visual results. However, you should note that the plate printing process only allows a matt print image and the durability of the signs is limited.
In foil printing, facade signs generally last about twice as long – around 5 to 7 years – so the additional costs are quickly put into perspective; the resistant protective coating also creates a particularly elegant look. You can order foil-printed facade signs with a matt or high-gloss finish.
We offer a range of elegant wall spacers for secure, easy-to-use mounting of your facade advertising . With such a solution that is slightly raised from the wall, you can really show off your facade sign. Alternatively, you can of course simply anchor your sign to the house wall; with metal facades, there is nothing wrong with simply riveting it. However, when making your print template, make sure you take the required distance for the later placement of the wall spacers, screws or rivets into account so that a decorative cap does not cover your motif later. By the way, we are happy to pre-drill your sign for you if you wish – this really makes installation child’s play.
Of course, you can also use all of our signs suitable for exterior facades indoors.
Design your outdoor advertising however you like – as long as you take our general print data requirements into account, almost anything is possible. However, when choosing the colors of your wall motif, we advise you to ensure that there is a sufficiently strong contrast to the color of the exterior facade: after all, your outdoor wall sign should be as eye-catching as possible and not blend into the wall like a chameleon!
