Where to Find Custom Corflute Printing Near Me in Perth
Need corflute signs in Perth by the end of the week — and you are not sure who to trust with the job? You are not alone. Real estate agents rushing an open home, builders putting up a new site board, cafés promoting a weekend special, and event organisers signposting a festival all hit the same wall: most Perth printers either take too long, charge inner-city prices, or hand you a thin sign that curls in the first gust of a Fremantle Doctor.
That is exactly the problem this guide solves. Below, you will find out what “custom corflute printing near me” really means in a Perth context, how to judge a local printer in under five minutes, what to pay, what thickness to order, and how to get print-ready artwork out the door today. We have poured more than a decade of production experience at our Malaga workshop into this guide, so by the end you will know precisely where to order, what to order, and what to avoid.
If you just want the short answer: you can order corflute signs online from A2Z Printing, pick them up from our Malaga workshop, or have them delivered across Perth metro and Australia-wide. Call 08 6288 8285 for a free quote.
How Do You Choose the Right Local Corflute Printer?
Not every Perth printer that lists corflute on their website actually produces it in-house. A surprising number outsource the job, which is where turnaround times blow out and quality control breaks down. Here is how to tell a genuine local printer from a middleman in about five minutes.
Do they print on-site in Perth?
Ask directly: “Is the printing done at your Perth workshop, or do you send it elsewhere?” A local printer will happily tell you which suburb the job is produced in and will often invite you to drop in and see the production floor. If the answer is vague or routed through a head office in another state, you are dealing with a reseller.
Do they use UV printing for outdoor corflute?
UV direct-to-substrate printing is the industry standard for outdoor corflute because the ink cures instantly under ultraviolet light and bonds to the polypropylene surface. Cheaper solvent or eco-solvent methods will start to fade within weeks of direct Perth sun. Ask what printing method they use — if they cannot give you a straight answer, move on.
Can they do both 3mm and 5mm thicknesses?
A printer that only stocks one thickness is limiting your choices. For example, 3mm is the right pick for short-term indoor or sheltered use, while 5mm is what you want for windy site boards and multi-month outdoor campaigns. A genuinely capable printer will stock both and help you match the thickness to the job.
Will they cut, eyelet, and drill to your spec?
Finishing is where a lot of budget printers fall down. You should be able to order eyelets (one in each corner, or just the top corners), drill holes for screw mounting, and custom cuts without being pushed into a fixed template. If the online order form only allows one finishing option, that is a red flag.
How quickly can they actually turn the job around?
“Fast turnaround” is a phrase every printer uses, but it only means something when you pin it to a number. A good Perth printer with in-house production can typically have a standard corflute job ready within a few business days of artwork approval. If you need it sooner, they should be able to quote a rush option rather than shrug and say no.
What Sizes and Thicknesses Should You Order?
One of the fastest ways to overpay for corflute is to order the wrong size. Standard signage dimensions exist for good reason — they fit stock A-frame inserts, common fence brackets, and courier delivery cartons without awkward oversize fees. Here is a plain-English guide to the sizes most Perth customers end up choosing.
Small boards — for counters, windows, and indoor promos
Sizes like 300 x 200mm, 400 x 300mm and 450 x 300mm are ideal for point-of-sale signage, retail window price boards, café specials, and directional signs inside a venue. At these dimensions, 3mm corflute is plenty rigid and keeps the unit cost low when you are ordering in bulk.
Medium boards — the real estate and A-frame favourites
600 x 450mm and 600 x 900mm are the bread-and-butter sizes for the Perth property market and portable A-frame displays. The 600 x 900mm in particular is the standard insertable panel size for most corflute A-frame systems, which is why it is easily the single most-ordered dimension at our Malaga workshop.
Large boards — for construction sites and major campaigns
For site fencing, auction boards, and event sponsor displays, you want A2 (420 x 594mm), A1 (594 x 841mm) or A0 (841 x 1188mm). At these dimensions, 5mm corflute becomes the sensible default because the extra thickness dramatically improves wind performance and reduces the chance of flex across the face of the board.
Rule of thumb: choose 3mm for anything indoors, anything under 600 x 450mm, or anything going up for under a month. Choose 5mm for outdoor installations above 600 x 900mm, anywhere exposed to strong wind, or any campaign expected to run for multiple months. When in doubt, spend the small extra on 5mm — the ruined-sign cost of undersizing is always higher than the upgrade.
How Much Should Custom Corflute Printing Cost in Perth?
Price is almost always the reason people add “near me” to their search — local printers should not be dramatically more expensive than interstate online shops once freight is factored in. At our Malaga workshop, corflute signs currently range from around $25 for small single-sided boards up to approximately $167 for the largest A0 double-sided finished panels, depending on the exact specifications you select.
The four variables that actually move the price are, in order of impact: the board size, the thickness (3mm or 5mm), whether you print one side or both, and the finishing options such as eyelets or custom cuts. Quantity matters too — bulk runs for real estate agencies, construction firms, and event organisers attract significantly lower per-unit pricing, which is why we keep bulk pricing structured rather than quoted on a case-by-case basis.
Be cautious of prices that look too good to be true. A $10 A1 corflute sign almost always means either 2mm board (which flexes visibly), solvent printing that fades inside a few weeks, or an artwork “setup fee” that appears only at checkout. Stick with printers who publish their pricing openly and do not spring surprise charges at the end.

-
Is corflute suitable for long-term outdoor use in Perth?
Corflute performs very well in short-to-medium-term outdoor use, typically from a few weeks up to around 12 months depending on sun exposure and installation. For permanent multi-year signage, aluminium composite panels are a better match.
-
Should I choose 3mm or 5mm corflute for my project?
Choose 3mm for indoor use, short-term promotional signage, or small sizes. Choose 5mm for large outdoor boards, construction site signage, windy locations, and multi-month campaigns where rigidity really matters.
-
Can corflute signs be printed on both sides?
Yes. Double-sided UV printing is available for all our corflute sizes. It is especially useful for fence-mounted real estate boards, roadside signs, and freestanding A-frame displays where visibility from both directions matters.
-
Can you design my corflute sign if I don't have artwork?
Yes. Our in-house design team can build your sign from a rough brief, a logo, or even a photo of something similar you liked. There is a design option built straight into the corflute order form, or you can email your brief to sales@a2zprinting.com.au.
-
What file format do you need for my corflute artwork?
Print-ready PDF at 300dpi with 3mm bleed and all fonts outlined is ideal. We also accept AI, EPS, and high-resolution PNG or JPEG files. If your artwork is not quite print-ready, we will flag it before we start production.
