High Density Urethane (HDU) has become the industry standard for most outdoor signs today, regardless of climate conditions. HDU is a petroleum based product that is also used in the manufacture of surf boards and ski boards. This material is completely weather proof and is guaranteed by the manufacturer for 10 years against splitting, cracking or warping. After finishing, an HDU sign will last indefinitely and be maintenance-free.

HDU has a life expectancy of two to three times that of wood. HDU is also a must for hot arid climates found in the southwest, hot and humid areas of the southern states, tropical or coastal areas of the U.S. Wood signs in these locations will have a reduced life expectancy depending on exposure to the elements.

HDU also features extended paint life. Wood contains resins and other organic compounds that can sometimes push towards the surface as it ages. HDU on the other hand is an inert material, friendly to all types of finishes. Being nearly half the weight of a comparable wood sign, most hanging signs produced by Strata are made of HDU. Large freestanding signs made with this lighter weight material make for easier handling during installation.

HDU is grainless in composition, therefore finer and deeper carving can be achieved. Routed text and images in HDU signs can be deeply cut in multiple layers yielding a truly 3-dimensional look to your sign. For customers who prefer the look of a sandblasted sign, a simulated wood grain can be applied, rendering a sign that is indistinguishable from wood when fully painted.

Beware of sign companies offering cheaper alternatives to HDU as a cost saving device. These materials are sensitive to direct sunlight and hot and cold fluctuations in temperature. They will warp, split and distort after a short period of time.
