Backlit LED signs are a popular and effective signage solution that combines both aesthetics and functionality. One premium variation of this signage style features a stainless steel face and sides finished with horizontal brushing and electroplated bronze. This combination not only gives the sign a luxurious appearance but also ensures durability and long-lasting performance.
These signs are fabricated using high-quality 304-grade stainless steel. The face and return (sidewalls) of the letters or logo are precisely cut and shaped, followed by expert welding to create a seamless structure. The surface is then horizontally brushed, giving it a fine linear texture that adds sophistication and a sense of depth. After brushing, the stainless steel is electroplated in a bronze finish. This electroplating process enhances corrosion resistance while achieving a rich, metallic tone that resembles antique brass or copper, giving the sign a timeless, elegant character.
The back panel of the sign is typically made from 10mm thick opal or frosted white acrylic. High-efficiency LED strips are installed inside the sign, facing the back panel. When illuminated, the light diffuses through the acrylic and reflects onto the wall behind the sign, creating a smooth, attractive halo glow around the letters or logo. This backlit effect enhances nighttime visibility and brings a striking visual impact, making the signage highly visible and readable from a distance, even in low-light environments.
The fixing method usually involves pins or threaded rods at the back of the sign, allowing it to be mounted securely and spaced 10–50mm away from the wall. This spacing is essential to produce a uniform halo lighting effect. The LED modules used are CE-certified and have a long lifespan of over 50,000 hours, making them both energy-efficient and low-maintenance.
These backlit LED signs are widely used in commercial settings such as retail stores, corporate buildings, hotels, restaurants, real estate offices, and shopping malls. The bronze electroplated finish, in particular, is favored for high-end branding projects, luxury boutiques, and businesses looking to create a prestigious image.
In summary, backlit LED signs with horizontally brushed and electroplated bronze stainless steel combine advanced fabrication, aesthetic design, and reliable illumination. Their premium appearance and high-performance lighting make them an excellent choice for brands that demand visibility with style and durability.
