Material Offerings
All our materials are rigid to provide you with the most accurate fiducials. We offer 3 variants and each come in various thicknesses.
Light Weight: Made of low density polystyrene, this material is perfect for application where weight takes highest priority. This is our lowest cost offering. It is printed in semigloss so it doesn't handle harsh lighting conditions very well.
Hybrid: Made of high density polystyrene, this material is a great balance of weight and strength. Just a bit heavier than our Light Weight material but many times stronger. Printed in matte, this material can handle harsh lighting conditions.
Ultra Rigid: Made of aluminum composite, this material is our most rigid and durable material. It is the most dent resistant and can handle outdoor conditions. This material is recommended for customers who want the highest accuracy fiducial. Printed in matte, this material can handle harsh lighting conditions.
