Reduce your costs by switching to a greener, more durable temporary sign substrate that provides greater returns over time.
Enviroplate Substrate
Reduce your Streetwork sign costs by switching to a more durable substrate
As a greener alternative for our quick-lock & temporary signs, we introduced Enviroplate Substrate. We think it’s so good it renders GRP & black plastic sign substrates obsolete. Because not only is it more durable and unlikely to break or bend out of shape. But it’s also made from 100% recycled ABS, which is reusable and recoverable.
Enviroplate Substrate helps signs last longer and is capable of withstanding repeat on-site deployment. Extending the service life of traffic-management signs lowers your annual costs and environmental impact.

Significantly Lowering its Carbon Footprint.
Make and deploy TM Signs that last
Enviroplate is our answer to temporary signs biggest problem, the substrate. Whatever you use, it struggles to cope with regular transport & on-site handling. Since it’s more durable than GR Poly and Composite, Enviroplate wont bend & damage your sign faces. And it’s resistant to standard impacts, chemicals and weathering. So your signs remain legible and effective for much longer too.
As a result of its dense structure, it’s highly resistant to the elements & will not breakdown and crumble. This also means it produces clean edges when cut, drilled and engraved. Being glass-fibre free, you won’t have to worry about releasing hazardous particles either.

Ideal for Highways safety devices
As an ABS Substrate, Enviroplate is considered generally stronger and more impact-resistant than other plastics. But with better impact, higher stress and low temperature resistances. Moreover, ABS offers a combination of outstanding physical, mechanical, thermal, and electrical properties.
These traits also make it ideal for Highways Safety products like our Quick-Lock Signs & Cone Reflectors. Sheets can be laser-cut and routed, or thermally heated and folded to make products. And it’s compatible with Oralite Reflective films, used for common safety devices.
