Routing Artwork

Getting a park sign to look just like what you imagined begins with great artwork, a durable high density polyethylene (HDPE) board, and our CNC Routing System. A CNC Router is a computer numerical controlled system which means the computer controls the pathways the router bit takes on the recycled plastic signs. 


We utilize this technology to layout the tool paths for the router to cut the appropriate logos, numbers, and letters out of the 4 x 8 foot recycled plastic sheet. Our HDPE sheets are a combination of two outside colors and one contrasting inside color. This long-lasting “sandwich” style sheet is created from bringing together the three color layers of plastic when it is still in the molten state. The result is a strong recycled plastic sign that is impossible to delaminate.

The computer controlled routing system combined with the durability of the pigmented HDPE allows us to carve as small as one-inch in lettering size for your sign. This provides you with the ability to add more detail to your park signs than you ever would be able to with a hand routed wooden sign.

We also have the versatility to do very large park entrance signs. The largest sign we have completed is at the Lorain County Regional Airport in Ohio. The entrance sign measures 96H x 360W inches.

By routing our recycled plastic signs using the CNC Routing System, we create unique park signs with structural depth that are weather and graffiti resistant. Since the HDPE has no surface porosity, is very smooth, and has a water absorption rate of less than 1 percent—nothing sticks to the surface this includes dirt, mildew, mold, or graffiti.
