			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Performance Signage, based just outside of Cincinnati, Ohio, serves the entire United States, providing durable, everlasting interior and exterior signs. Our exterior <strong>ground signs</strong> have been used by companies needing <a title="Wayfinding Signage" href="/179/wayfinding-signs-from-performance-signage">wayfinding signs</a> to navigate a park and subdivisions looking for a <a title="Community Entrance Signage" href="/169/community-entrance-signs">community entrance sign</a>. Because our signs are made from DuPont Corian® instead of the usual metal, plastic, or wood, they are effective, economical and everlasting while remaining vibrant and attractive.</p>
<p>Read on further to learn the benefits of a <strong>ground sign</strong> from Performance Signage.</p>
<h2>DuPont Corian® Ground Sign</h2>
<p>Despite the advances in the paint used for traditional outdoor signs, paint-on-substrate (wood, metal or plastic) still fades, peels, cracks and chips. This is why Performance Signage does not use the paint-on-substrate method; instead, using sophisticated computer equipment, we have developed a process for cutting deep into the DuPont Corian® substrate we use as sign material.</p>
<p>When making an outdoor ground sign, we cut the image deep into the substrate, then use proprietary techniques and resins to inlay the required graphics. This inlay process makes the graphic images a permanent part of the sign, rather than something simply painted on. This is what makes it so durable—you’ll never replace Performance Signage’s ground signs because of weather damage, peeling, cracks, or chips.</p>
<p>All of this makes Performance Signage basically maintenance free. Inevitable accumulations of airborne particulates, road salt, bird droppings or markings placed by vandals can be easily removed with mild solvents or buffing with a fine abrasive pad. You won’t have to worry about the cost of replacement, because Performance Signage should last as long as you need it to.</p>
<p>If you are interested in an estimate on Performance Signage for your property, please <a href="/performance-signage/contact-us">contact us</a> today by phone or email. One of our Sales Representatives will be happy to help you.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There are some issues when putting up a <a title="Maintenance Free Signage" href="/173/maintenance-free-monument-signage">monument sign</a>, the most prominent of which is dealing with vandalism. Since <strong>monument signs</strong> are so prominently placed, they are often the target of vandalism, and thus must be durable. Performance Signage, based just outside of Cincinnati, Ohio, has been providing vandal proof signage for years using proprietary techniques and unique materials to create easily maintained and durable monument and <strong>gateway signs</strong>.</p>
<p>Really, any <a title="Durable Ground Signage" href="/171/ground-signs-from-performance-signage">ground sign</a> can be a target for vandalism. Choose Performance Signage and that is no longer a worry. Read on further to learn why.</p>
<h2>Gateway Signs</h2>
<p>Like our monument signs, we can also create gateway signs that are virtually impervious to vandalism. This is achieved by creating signs that are not painted on, but rather of one piece; instead of graphics being another layer that must be replaced or repainted when it is vandalized, text and images are actually inlaid into the sign material itself. Marker, spray paint, and even chewing gum can be easily cleaned off using a solvent or buffer pad without taking the text or images with it.</p>
<p>How do we do it? We use a computer-driven, hand-finished process, making the most of both craftsmanship and technology to create our signs. We can add dimension by using applied Corian letters, borders, or shapes that are part of the sign and will not chip, fade, crack, or peel away. The sign is basically one piece of material that is extraordinarily resistant to damage from man or nature. It is the most cost-effective sign option on the market because you’ll never have to replace it!</p>
<p>For more information, please browse our website, or <a href="/performance-signage/contact-us">contact us</a> by phone or email. One of our Sales Representatives will walk you through the process of getting started. We’ll be happy to help!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It is a sad truth that a <strong>monument sign</strong> is often a target for vandalism. The popularity of graffiti, in the form of “tagging,” has made it so that almost any public sign is susceptible, but prominent <strong>monument signage</strong>, since it is viewed by so many people, is a very desirable target for vandals. In the past, replacing or repairing vandalized monument signage has been time-consuming and costly. No more; Performance Signage uses unique materials and proprietary techniques to make sure your monument’s sign is easily maintained and will not need to be replaced due to tagging with markers or spray paint from vandals.</p>
<p>A company specializing in <a title="Monument Signage" href="/181/monument-signs">monument signs</a>, <a title="Community Gateway Signs" href="/175/gateway-sign-options">gateway signage</a>, and any sort of exterior or interior signage system, Performance Signage creates signs with appearance that has a classic appeal while using techniques that make sure they’ll last well into the future.</p>
<h2>A Durable Monument Sign</h2>
<p>Our durable monument signage is constructed from DuPont Corian® substrate. Instead of painting graphics on the outside of the surface—making it susceptible to peeling, fading, chipping or cracking—we use proprietary techniques to cut into the substrate, inlaying the graphic images there. Since they are part of the sign, they will not wipe away.</p>
<p>The material can be easily cleaned using a buffer or solvents, so spray paint, markers, chewing gum, and other marks left by vandals can be washed away without taking the sign’s graphic images with them.</p>
<p>To learn more about our monument sign options, <a title="Contact Us" href="/performance-signage/contact-us">contact us</a> by phone or email today. One of our Sales Representatives will be happy to help you get started. You can also see some samples of our work on the Photo Gallery page, and watch a video demonstration of how easy it is to maintain Performance Signage. We look forward to hearing from you.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Performance Signage is a company based just outside of Cincinnati, Ohio serving the United States by creating unique signage using proprietary techniques that separate Performance Signage from other similar companies. Unlike other companies creating <a title="Wayfinding Signage" href="/177/durable-wayfinding-signage">wayfinding signage</a> and <a title="Ground Signage" href="/171/ground-signs-from-performance-signage">ground signs</a>, Performance Signage is the only company recognized officially by DuPont for its use of the special DuPont Corian® material. When creating <strong>wayfinding signs</strong>, we use a unique process that inlays text and graphic images within the DuPont material, making it virtually impervious to fading, cracking, peeling, chipping, and other types of damage associated with weather. In addition, DuPont Corian® is almost entirely vandal proof—marker, spray paint, chewing gum and other materials vandals often use to deface signs wipe easily away with solvents or the use of a buffing pad.</p>
<h2>Get Started on a Wayfinding Sign Today</h2>
<p>Visit our photo gallery page to check out some examples of our work, or browse the rest of our site to learn more. If you’re ready to get started on a <strong>wayfinding sign</strong>, contact us and one of our Sales Representatives will be happy to get you started.</p>
<p>We will work with you to create the wayfinding signs you have envisioned. We can work with digital artwork you provide and make your vision a reality. First, the sign is constructed from DuPont Corian®. Then, using computerized technology, we cut deep into the sign material, creating the shapes to inlay your graphic images and text. Then, we inlay the graphic images into the wayfinding sign itself. The sign is finished and installed.</p>
<p>We think you will be happy with Performance Signage. Since it is so durable, maintenance is simple, and you will never have to replace it due to fading, peeling, discoloration, or any sort of weather damage. <a href="/performance-signage/contact-us">Get started today</a>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Wayfinding signage</strong> is necessary in many places. Large parks need signs guiding visitors through trails or to picnic areas. Complicated subdivisions use many a <a title="Wayfinding Signs" href="/179/wayfinding-signs-from-performance-signage">wayfinding sign</a> to direct visitors towards the house they are looking for. A <a title="Gateway Signs" href="/175/gateway-sign-options">gateway sign</a> for an office park can serve to direct newcomers toward the business they are going to visit. Wayfinding signage should be striking and attention grabbing while remaining clear in its message, and it should not be faded, cracked or peeled, since that can detract from its effectiveness.</p>
<p>Performance Signage, a company based just outside of Cincinnati, Ohio, uses proprietary methods and unique materials to create signage that will not crack, fade, or peel. If you are in need of an exterior, <strong>weather proof sign</strong> that will stand the test of time and the elements, Performance Signage is the option for you.</p>
<h2>How We Make a Weather Proof Sign</h2>
<p>Most signage companies use traditional materials to create signs—wood, metal, plastic, granite. Then, the graphic images are painted on the signs. Performance Signage does things a little differently; instead of painting images on our DuPont Corian® signs, we actually inlay the graphics in the material of the sign itself. What does that mean for you? It means no paint to peel off, wear away, or fade from sun, rain, or mildew damage.</p>
<p>Performance Signage can work from your existing artwork to create a sign that conveys your message while outlasting any other sign in the business. This is because Performance Signage creates signs that are virtually impervious to the chief environmental factors that cause other types of signs to deteriorate. Performance Signage makes the only truly weather proof sign in the business. For more information, please continue browsing the Performance Signage website, or <a href="/performance-signage/contact-us">contact us</a> by phone or email today.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Based just outside of Cincinnati, Ohio, Performance Signage serves the entirety of the United States, offering a wide variety of indoor and outdoor signs for numerous applications. If you have need for a long-lasting, durable, virtually indestructible <a title="Vandal Proof Signage" href="/167/vandal-proof-signs">vandal proof sign</a> for any use, Performance Signage is the company for you. Whether you are in need of restrained, elegant <a title="Monument Signs" href="/173/maintenance-free-monument-signage">monument signage</a> or a <strong>gateway sign</strong> for a golf course, park, office or planned community, Performance Signage can provide the weather proof signs you’re looking for.</p>
<p><strong>Gateway signage</strong> from Performance Signage can be created from your pre-prepared artwork. We will work from digital files to match your colors and design, maintaining your branding while developing a gateway sign exactly to your specifications. But that’s not the best part.</p>
<h2>Indestructible Gateway Signage</h2>
<p>The best part is that you will never have to replace your gateway signage due to fading, peeling or discoloration. Stains, mildew and graffiti can be easily wiped away using common cleaning solvents or a buffing pad.

We use DuPont Corian®, a material that is virtually impervious to the chief environmental factors that cause other types of signs to deteriorate. Our unique process and materials ensure that the original color and detail in the sign will never be worn away. Nicks and scratches can be buffed out with a Scotch-Brite pad or orbital sander.</p>
<p>For more information, please continue browsing our website, or feel free to <a title="Contact Us" href="http://">contact us</a>. One of our expert Sales Representatives will be happy to help you by answering any questions or getting you started.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Many companies claim to be able to create an <a title="Outdoor Signs" href="/159/exterior-signage-systems">exterior sign</a> that can stand up to the elements—weather, insect damage, mildew. What these companies don’t take into account is damage that comes from people. While weather proof signage is essential, often signs need to be repaired or replaced due to vandalism, not due to rain, wind, sleet or snow. <a title="Park Entrance Signage" href="/152/durable-entrance-signage">Entrance signage</a> to parks is often tagged with graffiti. Performance Signage is the one company out there that makes truly <strong>vandal proof signs</strong>.</p>
<h2>How We Craft a Vandal Proof Sign</h2>
<p>When creating a <strong>vandal proof sign</strong>, we use a unique, proprietary technique that utilizes DuPont Corian® material instead of wood, plastic, or metal. This material is easily cleaned using a buffer or orbital sander, making it easy to remove spray paint, markers, or even chewing gum. When you use vandal proof signs from Performance Signage, when you clean your sign, you will not be wiping your graphics away along with the graffiti. That’s because the graphics are actually inlaid in the sign’s material, making the graphics a part of the sign that does not fade, peel, or wipe away.</p>
<p>Each vandal proof sign from Performance Signage is created using a computer-driven, hand-finished process that integrates the lettering into the Corian® surface. You will never have to replace this sign due to spray paint, marker, or chewing gum, and you won’t have to repaint the graphics on either, since they are embedded within the sign.</p>
<p>In addition to being vandal proof, our signs are weather proof as well. Our unique process has eliminated discoloring, stains, mildew, cracks, chips and chalking.</p>
<p>For more information on our vandal proof signage, continue browsing our website or <a href="/performance-signage/contact-us">contact us</a> by phone or email today. We look forward to hearing from you and providing the signage you need.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As more and more communities are built in the suburbs, it can be tough to distinguish one subdivision from another. This is where <strong>community entrance signs</strong> come in. The right <strong>community entrance sign</strong> can convey what type of community you live in while providing direction to visitors. Like a <a title="Custom Park Signs" href="/149/about-our-park-entrance-signs">park entrance sign</a>, a community entrance sign should be bright, clear, and informative while still embodying the personality of the community it signifies.</p>
<h2>Performance Signage: A Unique Community Entrance Sign</h2>
<p>Similarly to <a title="Park Signs" href="/149/about-our-park-entrance-signs">park entrance signs</a>, community entrance signs need to be durable, able to stand up to a number of conditions. Because Performance Signage uses DuPont Corian® instead of wood, metal, or plastic, the graphics on the sign are embedded directly into the sign’s material as opposed to painted upon it. This means that the graphics will not fade, peel, or chip away, as paint is wont to do.</p>
<p>Community entrance signage from Performance Signage is UV-stable, waterproof and non-porous, making it permanently resistant to damage from weather and more. The signs are created using a mix of old-school craftsmanship and cutting-edge technology, using a computer-driven and hand-finished process to take your signage needs from concept to installation. We can work from artwork you provide to make your sign ideas a reality.</p>
<p>For more information, please continue browsing our website or <a href="/performance-signage/contact-us">contact us</a> today to begin. Once you call or email us, you’ll be in contact with one of our expert Sales Representatives, who will work with you to make sure your signage needs are met efficiently and cost-effectively. We take pride in creating customized signage for our customers and as a result we handle all product and pricing inquiries, as well as order submissions, personally and promptly. We look forward to hearing from you and working with you to create the signage your community needs.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Performance Signage is a company based just outside of Cincinnati, Ohio but serving the entire United States, offering cutting-edge and durable interior and <strong>exterior signage systems</strong> made using the company’s own proprietary techniques from DuPont Corian® solid surface materials. If you are looking for a striking <strong>exterior sign</strong> for your business, one that brightly and boldly announces your brand while resisting the elements, Performance Signage is the <a title="Corian Signs" href="/161/using-corian-for-exterior-signage">exterior signage </a>company for you.</p>
<h2>A Durable Exterior Sign</h2>
<p>Performance Signage can replicate the look and feel of a classic wood, granite or metal exterior sign using the extra-durable DuPont Corian® material. This is achieved through a mix of computer precision and hand-crafted care, as your graphics are actually inlaid into the material of the sign using our proprietary technique. That means your <a title="Outdoor Architectural Signage" href="/161/using-corian-for-exterior-signage">exterior architectural signage</a> will not be faded or worn away by the elements; since the graphics are actually part of the sign, below the surface, they are virtually impossible to damage.</p>
<p>The result: Exterior signage systems that are the most cost-effective on the market today. Our signs are the least expensive you’ll ever by, because they will not need to be replaced due to fading, peeling, or discoloration. Stains and mildew can simply be wiped or buffed away; the same with graffiti. The DuPont Corian® does not chip or crack, and as a result is extremely resistant to any sort of external or internal insect damage. The only concern with our signs is making sure you’ve chosen a design you’ll want to stick with forever; if your design doesn’t change, we guarantee these will be the last signs you’ll ever buy!</p>
<p>For more information on our signage systems, continue browsing the Performance Signage website, or <a href="/performance-signage/contact-us">contact us</a> by phone or email today. We look forward to working with you.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Have you purchased signs in the past that, even if they looked bright and bold and beautiful when brand new, did not stand the test of time? Are you looking to replace one of those signs with cost-effective and eye-catching <strong>unique signage</strong> that will last, looking as good ten years from now as the day you put it up? You’ve come to the right website; Performance Signage is a <strong>unique sign</strong> company with a proprietary method for creating signs from <a title="Wayfinding Signs" href="/177/durable-wayfinding-signage">weather proof sign</a> material that truly does stand the test of time.</p>
<p>That a sign will fade, chip, crack, or peel seems inevitable. That’s because traditionally made signs all do; traditionally made signs typically use lettering and graphics that are applied to the surface of the sign, often made of plastic, metal or wood. Painted-on surfaces are naturally vulnerable to damage from external conditions like moisture, sunlight, climate, animals, and vandalism. Take, for example a <a title="Custom Park Signs" href="/157/custom-designed-park-sign-options">park sign</a> made from wood with the letters painted on—weather will cause both the wood and the paint to chip, meaning that even with constant upkeep, the sign will need to be replaced soon enough.</p>
<h2>A Unique Sign Company</h2>
<p>None of the above problems are a worry with unique signage created by Performance Signage. Instead of using the old painted-on-substance method, we use sturdy, weather and vandal proof DuPont Corian®, a solid surface material composed of acrylic polymer and alumina trihydrate. Corian® can be joined, shaped and finished into a wide variety of products, making it the perfect choice for durable, unique signage. Instead of painting your graphics on the surface, they are cut and inlaid into the Corian® itself. Since it is part of the sign’s basic makeup, it will not fade, peel or chip away. You will never replace these signs due to:</p>
<ul>
<li>Fading</li>
<li>Peeling</li>
<li>Discoloration</li>
<li>Stains</li>
<li>Mildew</li>
<li>Graffiti</li>
<li>Chips</li>
<li>Cracks</li>
<li>Insect damage</li>
</ul>
