Signs and Visual Advertising
Krankensigns.com is a premier manufacturer of EPS Foam Core Signs and Visual Advertising Products. The versatility of EPS Foam (Expanded Polystyrene) invites creativity in design and expanded applications that have been limited in the past with traditional building materials.If you pride yourself in “thinking outside of the box” and having the ability to separate yourself from your competition, then EPS Foam Products are an ideal base material to build upon.
We are able to incorporate several combinations of traditional sign materials into your designs to produce exciting visual displays that capture the attention of potential customers. 3-D Elements and Architectural Accents create that added dimension that you are looking for. We can add these enhancements to any form or style of traditional signage. Remember we also offer Charlotte Banners.
Traditional Foam Core Monument Signs
Foam Core Monument Signs are a smart choice because they provide unsurpassed durability in a lightweight structure and are easy to install. By combining our experience in the construction industry with our graphic design talents, we can develop the perfect sign solution for both commercial and residential applications.Not all signs are created equal. Our custom EPS Foam Core monuments are designed to meet any need and fabricated to handle even the harshest climates. Unlike many sign fabricators, we use only 1.5 lb, higher density expanded polystyrene with our unique “Armor Core” hard coat protective base coat. This semi-pliable high build coating completely encapsulates the structure and offers superior impact resistance. The resulting structure is resistant to rot, insects and moisture and will not rust or peel. Finished textures are then applied and painted to complete the sign.
EPS Wall Displays and Block Letters

(High Density Urethane), metal or wood for large wall signs. EPS can be routed with raised 3-D features, sculpted to enhance graphics or special effects, laminated to rigid backer materials for moun ng and can be fabricated in one piece for oversized signs.Other applications for EPS include replacement sign faces, block letters, tenant directory signs, marquees, large wall displays and logo or trademark displays.
HDU Routed Signs
HDU (High Density Urethane) is an ideal alternate to wood. HDU is a rigid foam board that is available in various densities. Unlike EPS, it is a much higher density and contains less air. Unlike wood, HDU will not split, warp or rot. Since HDU is a “closed cell” material, water cannot penetrate it even in its raw state, which makes it ideal for exterior applications even in the harshest climates.The advantage of HDU in wall signs and accents is the ability to route fine, three dimensional details in the sign face. Le ers and graphics can be engraved or raised. Fine smooth painted finishes are achievable as well. HDU can be used for Post and Panel signs, directional post mount signs, monument sign faces, block letters, plaques, medallions, logos and any application where smooth finishes and fine detail are required.
