Green Dot Sign

Since the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) was enacted, the signage industry has almost exclusively used acrylic plastic for ADA-compliant signs. While plastic is cost-effective and chemical resistant, it is derived from fossil fuels and difficult to recycle after being made into signage.
In U.S. commercial buildings alone, at least 243 million pounds of plastic ADA signs are in use today. As existing buildings are renovated or torn down these signs will be tossed into a landfill for future generations to deal with.
Green Dot Sign® was founded to address this challenge.
Because our office signs are made of real, responsibly harvested FSC® wood they are about 99% biodegradable and renewable by weight. Additionally, every sign reduces plastic consumption by 250 grams versus a traditional ADA sign
Our wide selection of ready to order ADA signs are made of aspen and coated with plant-based oils to bring out the grain and protect the wood. We produce custom signs from a variety of materials.
Green Dot room and door signs enable customers to bring the beauty of natural materials to interior environments. Studies have found that the biophilic effect of natural materials reduces stress and enhances social and cognitive functions.
Environmentally responsible, sustainable signs also illustrate a commitment to our planet as well as human health and well-being at every doorway.
After a decade of success in a traditional sign and graphics business we fully realized the negative impacts of plastic-based facilities signage. We decided that it was time to make sustainable signs started with ADA signs.
With intensive trial and error, we developed a patent pending, low-waste manufacturing technique. Wood and sawdust waste from sign blank production is biodegradable and 3D printing of raised ADA-compliant signage.
