How long does screenprinting on coroplast last?
Customer wants 100 coroplast signs (18x24) but wants to go the cheapest route (sound familiar?).

So, is it as durable as vinyl? Thanks in advance.

If your screener uses the proper ink...should last as long as the coroplas!

Lots cheaper, too!

Sharon,

With the exception of black & white, both solvent-based and UV-based inks for coroplast have about a 2-3 year outdoor life. Yellow typically fades faster than Fire Red. It like everything else, the more sun it gets, the shorter the life-span.
