6mm Correx® signs are lightweight, tough, fluted polypropylene boards for short to medium-term indoor/outdoor advertising. Weather resistant, it can be easily set up with nails, screws, glue, or drill holes. The board is popular for temporary needs such as event directions, estate agent boards, and site safety signs. Its twin-wall fluted structure is impact resistant yet easy to handle, cut, drill, and install with cable ties, screws, or frames. Colourful and fully customisable 6mm Correx® is a practical choice where strength, durability, and value for money are required.
The 6mm option is an alternative to the standard 4mm Correx® sign board and offers better overall strength and additional protection from wind and other weather conditions when used for large-format signage. Finished using HD UV flatbed print technology, this board is a perfect medium for constructing construction hoardings, as well as a budget-friendly option for large-scale events and outdoor advertisements.

Most people are familiar with the standard 4mm board for estate agent signs. But why buy 6mm Correx® sheets?
Superior Rigidity & Flatness: Thinner fluted boards are prone to bow or warp when printed in large sheets (A0 or 8ft x 4ft). The 6mm Correx® board has thicker internal flutes and tougher outer skins.
Increased Impact Resistance: Signs get battered on active construction sites or busy festival grounds. The addition of 2mm of thickness creates a protective cushion against impacts.
Better Wind Resistance: If you are mounting signage on a post or wire fence in an exposed area, wind load is a major consideration. The structural integrity of 6mm Correx® sheets makes them very resistant to wind pressure, reducing the risk of the sign folding or tearing away from its fixings.
We recommend upgrading to 6mm Correx® signs for these specific use cases:
Construction Hoarding & Site Perimeter: When cladding a site perimeter, you need a material that covers large gaps and withstands months of outdoor exposure. 6mm Correx® board is the cost-effective alternative to Aluminium Composite (DiBond) for temporary hoardings.
Large Commercial Estate Agent Boards: Using 6mm Correx® ensures your large commercial agency boards remain rigid and readable, projecting an image of high-value professionalism.
Outdoor Event Wayfinding: For music festivals, marathons, or outdoor markets, 6mm Correx® sheets prevent the “floppy” look associated with thinner materials.
Temporary Shop Fronts: If you are refitting a shop and need to cover the windows or fascia temporarily, 6mm Correx® provides a secure, opaque visual barrier.
Just because it is thicker doesn’t mean it can’t be customised. Our production floor is equipped with industrial cutting tables capable of slicing through 6mm Correx® board with surgical precision.
Contour Cutting: We can cut your heavy-duty board into arrows, circles, or custom product shapes.
Drilled Holes: We can pre-drill holes in the corners or along the edges to match your specific fence fixing points, saving you installation time.
Creasing: While harder to fold than 4mm, 6mm Correx® can still be creased for specific structural packaging or display applications.
From durable printing to fast delivery, we’re set up to handle demanding large-format signage without compromise:
Direct-to-Media Printing: We print directly onto the 6mm Correx® sheets using UV-curable inks for a long-lasting bond rather than using vinyl stickers that can peel.
Large Format Capability: We can print massive single panels up to 3 metres x 1.5 metres, giving you seamless graphics for your hoarding.

It’s much stronger than standard boards. These thicker internal flutes prevent “buckling” or folding of the thinner sheets in high winds. For very large exposed signs (e.g. 8ft x 4ft), we still recommend securing the board every 50-60cm to a fence or backboard.
It is stronger than most but still quite light. A standard 6mm Correx® sheet weighs between 1500gsm and 1800gsm per square metre. It translates to a large 8ft x 4ft (2440mm x 1220mm) panel, which would be safe for a single person to lift and install on a fence or post at about 4.5kg – 5.5kg.
