Aluminium & Composite Tray Signs Gallery

A selection of aluminium and composite tray sign projects designed, manufactured, and installed by our team across London and the UK.

What Are Aluminium & Composite Tray Signs?

Aluminium and composite tray signs are a popular choice for shopfronts, office entrances, and commercial premises where a clean, professional appearance is essential. The tray format — a recessed panel with a raised aluminium border — gives signage a structured, premium look that sits flush against the building facade and holds its form over time.

At Signstar, we offer both solid aluminium trays and composite options. Solid aluminium trays provide maximum durability and a high-end finish, while composite trays combine an aluminium face with a lightweight core — delivering excellent strength and longevity at a more practical price point. Both options are built to withstand outdoor conditions, remaining weather-resistant and low-maintenance year after year.

We offer a wide range of RAL and Pantone colour options, stencil-cut designs, and illuminated finishes — including backlit options that bring real impact after dark. Every tray sign we produce is designed, manufactured, and installed by our experienced team, ensuring a precise fit and a result that genuinely reflects your brand.

What Our Clients Say

★★★★★
Signstar installed a very impressive text sign for Builder Depot New Southgate on the buildings shell, 20m high. The initial stages of the design were thoroughly discussed and we were supplied high quality digital mock ups. Installation was completed without a hitch, very quickly and just in time for Christmas. I couldn’t recommend them highly enough. Great communication, great attitude and a really fantastic sign which perfectly fit the brief.

I have used Mitch and his team for all my business requirements, from my shop signage, business cards to my company shirts. Their customer service is second to none, they take the time to go through my exact requirements and answer any questions I’ve had. I am also using them to wrap my company vehicle too. I would recommend them 100%.

Staff were very helpful and friendly. We ordered practically last thing on a Friday for a show on Sunday and the staff went above and beyond to ensure the print was ready in time. The poster looks fantastic, highly recommended for a very professional, fast and friendly service.
