Differences of engraved & vinyl color products?
Engraved signs are extra durable, distinctively designed signs that can be incorporated into almost any form you need. They can be used for everything from hanging signs indicating a business’s location to foot traffic to larger and more decorative storefront signs, to smaller directional and informational signs along pathways or in office buildings, and so much more. Most engraved are made from cedar or oak. Cedar is resistant to pests and other forms of damage because of its natural resins and Oak is very hard and resistant to rot.
