Dibond® is a brand name for a type of aluminum composite panel (ACP) that consists of three layers:
- Two outer sheets of aluminum (usually 0.012″ or about 0.3mm thick)
- A solid polyethylene (plastic) core in the middle
This sandwich-like construction gives Dibond several desirable properties:
- Lightweight but rigid – Much lighter than solid aluminum or wood, yet still very stiff and durable.
- Weather-resistant – Doesn’t rust or degrade easily, making it ideal for outdoor use.
- Smooth surface – Excellent for printing high-resolution graphics directly.
- Dimensional stability – Resistant to warping, bending, or expansion from heat and humidity.
- Long-lasting – Can last many years even in outdoor or harsh environments.
Dibond® is widely used for
- Signs and displays – Especially for outdoor signage, real estate signs, museum displays, and trade show graphics.
- Photographic and fine art mounting – Frequently used by artists and photographers for a sleek, modern presentation.
- Architectural cladding – Sometimes used on building facades or interiors.
- Retail and POP displays – Offers a premium, durable look for point-of-purchase advertising.
