A display that puts your business in the spotlight – larger than a sign and with a more polished finish.
For display on the façade of a shop, in a showroom or against an interior wall.
Intended for those who see the panel as part of the décor, rather than as a temporary notice.
The EcoScore is our own assessment of the material’s environmental footprint, on a scale of 1 to 5. It says nothing about the quality, and the material must be recycled under the right conditions.
It’s just the name and the use. It’s the same sheet, the same print and the same price. A billboard stands on its own and carries a message, whilst an advertising panel covers a surface or is mounted on spacers. This page covers both, so you don’t need to choose before you tell us the dimensions.
Yes, provided the correct backing board is used. Dibond is listed in our specifications for signage intended for long-term outdoor display. Forex is listed as a material for indoor use. We therefore recommend Dibond for a façade.
A single sheet measures up to 2050 x 4050 mm in Dibond and up to 2050 x 3050 mm in Forex. For larger surfaces, we assemble them from multiple panels, positioning the seams where they are concealed within the design.
With drill holes in the diameter you specify, with spacers, or mounted in a frame or on a plinth. If you tell us in advance what the wall looks like, we will position the holes in the correct places.
Yes. We can mill the panel into any shape you require, such as the outline of your logo or a rounded top.
We can arrange delivery and installation, or you can do it yourself. If you wish to hang it yourself, we will deliver the panel pre-drilled and with the mounting materials included.
The additional protective laminate, available in a matt or gloss finish, forms a layer over the print. For a panel that remains on display for years, this is the difference between a sleek, smooth surface and a print that looks worn.
There are no pre-defined options for advertising panels in the ordering module, as the dimensions, material and installation vary from job to job. Please provide the dimensions, quantity and location, and we will work out the cost for you.
That depends on the board it’s mounted on. Dibond is listed in our specifications as a material for outdoor signage intended for long-term outdoor display. Forex is listed as a material for indoor use, for in-shop signage and counter displays. Just tell us where it’s going, and we’ll choose the board.
We follow the classification we always use: 10 mm Forex for standard projects, 3 or 4 mm Dibond for longer-term projects. As our material data sheets do not specify a service life in years for these sheets, we do not provide one.
From a single unit. For a series of units for multiple branches, or one panel per room within the same building, the price per unit decreases, as the preparation and milling are then carried out in a single continuous process.
Up to 2050 at 4050 mm in Dibond and up to 2050 at 3050 mm in Forex. If the surface area needs to be larger, we will use several panels placed side by side.
We’ll take that on board. We prefer to position the seams along an existing line in the building or in the design, as that’s where a joint is least noticeable. We avoid placing a seam right across the centre of a face or a logo.
Technically, it’s the same sign. A sponsorship panel is placed alongside a sports ground or in a clubhouse, bears the name of a sponsor and is usually ordered in batches, with agreements on a seasonal basis. If you’re ordering a sign for your own business, you’ve come to the right place.
There are films designed for that purpose. Reflective film glows in the light of car headlights, fluorescent film catches the eye during the day, and phosphorescent film continues to glow after dark – that’s the ‘glow-in-the-dark’ version.
Yes, by applying a new film over the top. This works best on Dibond, as it stays flat. For a sign that you want to re-stick the decals onto several times, we don’t apply a laminate from the outset.
Dibond and Forex both score 1 out of 5 and are not PVC-free. For indoor use, Stadur Sign is the PVC-free alternative that comes closest in terms of rigidity; for outdoor use, it is bubble board. See the materials page.
Would you like to use advertising panels to put your business in the spotlight, either on the façade or inside your showroom? Creafor prints these panels in-house in Lokeren and finishes them to suit the façade: precisely cut to size, laminated and with drill holes that line up exactly with your mounting system. A panel is usually larger than a sign and remains in place for longer, so the choice of material is more important. Dibond is ideal for outdoor signage that remains on display for a long time, whilst Forex is better suited to indoor applications. This also applies to advertising boards where the location has not yet been finalised, as the same material is used. If you’re looking for panels for an exhibition or a trade fair stand, where image quality is paramount, then you’re better off with exhibition panels.
Please provide us with the plan or the dimensions, and tell us what needs to be included. We will assess the best options from a technical and budgetary perspective, and draw up a proposal covering design, production and installation.

The largest panel size in our range, and the panel of choice for projects where the work will remain on the same façade for years. A showroom wall or a section of façade is often made from a single piece, with no seam to disrupt the visual effect.
For a panel or sign that will last for months or even several years. Light enough to hang up yourself, rigid enough to stay flat. Also available in 2, 3, 5 and 19 mm thicknesses, in white or coloured.
We refer to a billboard when it stands on its own and displays a message, and to an advertising panel when it covers a surface or is mounted on brackets away from the wall. It makes no difference in terms of the material or the price.
Screws that hold the panel a few centimetres away from the wall. This makes it appear to float, so any unevenness in the wall is no longer noticeable.
