Introducing SmartFlute®

Ordinary signs lets light through. SmartFlute® signs shut it down.

SmartFlute® is UZ Marketing’s patented, 100% light-blocking corrugated plastic sign material. It stops the design on the back from fighting with the message on the front.

Patented SmartFlute®

100% Light-Blocking Core

100% Recycled Internal Flutes

Patented Sign Construction

Standard Material

Ordinary corrugated plastic

The back wants to be the front too.

Light can expose the design printed on the opposite side, creating a faded, cluttered and cheaper-looking sign.

× Reverse-side design may show through
× Reduced contrast in bright light
× Distracting shadow distortion

SmartFlute®

Front on the front. Back on the back.

SmartFlute® separates both printed sides so your message stays bold, clean and easy to read.

✓ 100% light-blocking construction
✓ Stronger contrast and cleaner presentation
✓ Professional double-sided yard signs

Light-Blocking Comparison

Same sunlight. Very different result.

Ordinary corrugated plastic vs. 100% light-blocking SmartFlute®

01 / LIGHT CONTROL

Blocks the light.

The opaque core prevents sunlight from shining through and weakening your printed message.

02 / CLEANER PRINT

Protects the message.

Both printed sides remain visually separated so text and graphics look cleaner from the curb.

03 / SMARTER CORE

Uses recycled flutes.

The internal flutes are made from 100% recycled material without sacrificing presentation.

What is SmartFlute®?

SmartFlute® is UZ Marketing’s patented corrugated plastic display material. Its 100% light-blocking construction prevents the print on one side from interfering with the design on the other.

How is it different from ordinary corrugated plastic?

Ordinary corrugated plastic can be translucent. SmartFlute® blocks light through the panel, improving contrast and reducing reverse-side show-through.

Is SmartFlute® made with recycled material?

Yes. The internal flutes are made from 100% recycled material.

Is it only useful for double-sided signs?

The difference is most noticeable on double-sided signs, but the opaque construction also helps single-sided designs maintain stronger contrast in bright outdoor conditions.

What is SmartFlute?

Ordinary signs lets light through. SmartFlute® signs shut it down.
