Looking for small sign printing supplier

Post by markstrom »

I'm looking for a long time partner that can supply me with the following service in the US.

1. Keep a stock of 3 sizes (3.5x5, 5x7, 7x10 inch) of plastic signs (I'll pay for the stock)
2. Receive an order with an attached PDF-file
3. Print one copy of the PDF to a plastic sign (normally black and 1-2 additional colors).
4. Ship the sign direct to the end customer within 3 days.

If someone is interested please send me a price indication for:
- Sign material cost (what are my options? Adhesive, reflective, thickness?)
- Printing cost (Different for number of colors or how much ink is used?)
- Shipping and handling cost

You need to find someone either with an inkjet flatbed printer that can print direct to substrate or a roll to roll printer that can mount printed psa vinyl to substrate. No screenprinter is going to do what you are looking for.

I'm aware that inkjet to substrate is what I'm looking for if someone does not have a better solution. I was not targeting screen printing as a technique but rather screen printer as a business which often includes other types of printing techniques.
