Cardboard Printing

Cardboard printing for custom cardboard signs

Cardboard printing is a popular choice for custom cardboard signs as it is a lightweight material that is easy to manoeuvre and transport. Therefore, if you are creating indoor displays for your trade fair stand, cardboard signs are easy to move around, hang and pack up when finished. Cardboard sign printing is also an eco-friendly choice as the cardboard is fully recyclable, so you are also doing your bit for the environment by choosing this material.

Pixartprinting’s cardboard signs are available in seven different types of cardboard and 11 formats, but you can also fully customise the size and shape. So, if you have a promotion or launch coming up or want to decorate your shop or café, get creative and print your logo, images or message on custom cardboard signs.

Cardboard printing with your choice of cut and varnish

The standard cut of our cardboard signs is rectangular with straight edges. However, you are free to define your own shaped cut for different shapes. There is an optional scratch-resistant varnish that you can add to your new cardboard signs to protect the print from scratches, which may be particularly useful if you will be moving and transporting cardboard displays regularly or if you want the sign to last indefinitely.
