Poster Prints
Substrate Options
ULTRABOARD: Rigid Foam Core
Our answer to foam core is Ultraboard — a rigid foam core with PVC faces that doesn’t warp! This is a lightweight substrate that direct prints beautifully. It is perfect for trade-shows, conferences and hanging restaurant menus. It’s only downside is if handled repeatedly or roughly, the corners can break when dropped. This is a favorite of our clients, especially for framing.
PVC
PVC is a fast-turnaround, economical substrate, recommended for indoor application out of direct sunlight. (PVC can warp in extreme sunlight or uneven heat.)
Corrugated plastic (also known by the brand name Coroplast®)
Corrugated plastic is lightweight (hollow structure), waterproof and long-lasting and one of the most economical substrates we offer. We chuckle, but many client’s ask for the “plastic cardboard” and we know this is what they want. Coroplast prints beautifully, for the price. The downside is the ridged texture and visible corrugation on the edges. For this reason, we tend to recommend it when clients are looking for a quick-turnaround, low-priced, short-term option.
Poster Paper
Our poster paper is the most economical product we sell and yet, it prints beautifully. We print posters on weather-proof paper with solvent ink, which means the face is waterproof, which adds to the overall durability. The backside is exposed paper, so we don’t recommend it for outdoor use on windy or rainy days. Otherwise, it is a great option for one-time use banners, posters for special events and advertisements, or economical photography displays.
Thin PVC is great for simple door or directional signs, while the thicker versions can be printed with beautiful art and photography.

Happy Customers
“Port City Signs has done a great job on our Low Speed Vehicles Decals here on the UNCW Campus. They are fast, affordable, and very reliable. They always treat us with a polite professional manner and make sure our vehicles are decaled with best quality materials . Thanks again for all you do for UNCW.”
At Red Door Homes we want the best and we frankly want everything BRANDED. One of the most important aspects of marketing is having a consistent and recognizable company that is seen in various formats and instances.
That is why we wrap our vehicles. For starters, it looks highly professional and, why not having mobile billboards if you are already paying for the vehicle. We work with Sabrina to update our tailgates from time to time, matching our billboards, again, for that ease of recognition.
Do yourself and your business a favor – partner with Port City Signs.
“Port City Signs and Graphics has wrapped 8 vehicles for us over the last two years. I couldn’t be happier with the quality of work from Sabrina and her team.
Branding for a business is important and our full vehicle wraps help us to achieve this. Our vans are rolling billboards in the Cape Fear Area! If you are wanting to increase your company’s visibility trust your vehicles to Port City Signs.”
