ABS Letters
Cost-effective ABS plastic volumetric letters — lightweight, colorful, and versatile
About This Service
ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene) is a cost-effective thermoplastic ideal for volumetric letters. It is lightweight, impact-resistant, and available in any RAL color through painting or vinyl wrapping. ABS letters are CNC-machined and vacuum-formed for precise, consistent quality. Perfect for interior signage, retail environments, trade shows, and budget-conscious outdoor installations. Craftarea delivers ABS letters in any size and design.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is ABS suitable for outdoor use?
ABS works outdoors in protected locations (under canopies, on covered facades). For direct weather exposure, we recommend UV-stabilized ABS or add UV-resistant coating.
How do ABS letters compare to acrylic?
ABS is cheaper, lighter, and more impact-resistant. Acrylic has better light transmission and UV resistance. For illuminated letters, acrylic faces + ABS returns is a popular combination.
What sizes are available?
From 5cm to 1.5m height. ABS is best for letters up to 80cm — larger sizes may require internal reinforcement.
Can ABS letters be illuminated?
Yes — ABS is commonly used as the body/returns for channel letters, with a translucent acrylic face for light transmission.
How long do ABS letters last?
Durability depends on the material, environment and care. Confirm the selected material’s specifications and any applicable warranty terms before ordering. UV coating extends outdoor life.
What finishes are possible?
Spray-painted (matte, gloss, metallic), vinyl-wrapped (carbon, wood grain, chrome), or raw white/black ABS.
