Color-Contrasting Engravable HDPE Sheets


Black (White Core)	Blue (White Core)	Brown (Tan Core)

White (Black Core)	Yellow (Black Core)	Brown (White Core)

Green (White Core)	Red (White Core)

Engrave these colored sheets, also known as ColorCore, to reveal the high-contrast color of the core beneath. The outer face is easily machined using CNC and hand routers. They’re great for creating signage, building panels, or fabricating color-coded machine parts. Made of HDPE, these sheets withstand harsh outdoor environments and won't swell or delaminate when exposed to UV, humidity, or water.
