Did your homeowner association buy wooden signage back in the day? Several years ago, these associations invested in wood panels because they looked rustic, imbued the area with a particular atmosphere and were suitable for sandblasting. What business owners failed to consider – at the time – was the rate at which wood can deteriorate. We propose replacing your wood panels with
HOA sandblasted HDU signs.
What is HDU?
Short for high-density urethane, it is a flexible material that has just enough give to prevent cracking when exposed to wind. Thicker than standard outdoor-rated foam, it is perfectly suitable for sandblasting and carving. Therefore, the material is an excellent alternative to wood for the company looking for a three-dimensional appearance.
Besides the durability of HDU, also consider its longevity. Because it is a human-made product, it will not deteriorate like wood. Insects cannot damage it, and water exposure will not result in dry rot, warping, or bowing. Best of all, our technicians can mimic the great look of wood by adding the illusion of a grain backdrop.
After finishing the project with a customized paint job, you will be hard-pressed to detect the difference between HDU and wood.
Case Study: Circle R Ranch Estates
Our shop had the opportunity to work with the HOA overseeing this property. The management team noticed that their
sandblasted wood signs had begun rotting and lost a lot of their visual appeal. Subsequently, they failed to advertise the brand message the association wanted current and prospective residents to see.
Because the client liked the sandblasted look, we proposed replacing the wood with HDU and changing the paint color slightly to make the signage pop. Now, the neighborhood’s entry monuments look fresh and as attractive as the rest of the area.
