There's a reason you can spot an Apple Store's signage from blocks away - they use premium acrylic sheets that make their LED lighting glow uniformly and brightly. Here's what makes acrylic the gold standard for illuminated signs:

The magic happens because acrylic transmits about 92% of visible light (compared to glass's 80-90%). This means:
• Brighter displays using less energy
• More vibrant colors
• Consistent glow without hot spots

Maintenance is easier too. Unlike glass, acrylic won't shatter, and it resists yellowing from UV exposure. "We switched to acrylic for all our convenience store signage," says franchise owner David Park. "The lights are brighter, and we've eliminated the safety concerns and breakage we had with glass."

For outdoor use, look for UV-stabilized acrylic that can withstand years of direct sunlight. Indoor applications can use standard cast acrylic, which provides that gorgeous glossy finish at a lower cost.
