Solid letters are three-dimensional elements used in signage and signage to represent brand names, messages, logos, or decorative phrases. Unlike flat or printed lettering, these letters have volume and depth, allowing them to stand out visually and create a more impactful, professional, and lasting image.
They can be manufactured in a wide variety of materials, sizes, thicknesses, and finishes, making them a highly versatile solution for both indoor and outdoor use. Corporate letters can be installed directly on a wall, facade, panel, or even suspended from ceilings, and can be illuminated or not, depending on the design and the environment.
