Tray signs are fascia signs folded from aluminium sheet so the face turns back at the edges into returns, typically 50–75 mm deep, then powder coated and hung on concealed fixings.
What you gain from tray signs in Cwmbran
- A modern Cwmbran retail park unit with grey cladding suits a powder-coated tray matched to the window frames' RAL colour.
- An estate agent in Cwmbran may change window displays weekly but keep the fascia for years, which is where a durable powder coat pays back.
- Where several Cwmbran shops share a parade, a charcoal tray with white letters stands apart from the printed panels around it.

Do you need permission for a sign in Cwmbran?
Wales still uses the Town and Country Planning (Control of Advertisements) Regulations 1992, as amended. The system looks similar to England's, with some signs allowed under deemed consent and others needing express consent from the council, but the details differ, so we check with the local planning authority rather than assume English limits apply. On a listed building, listed building consent is usually needed as well, and works without it can be a criminal offence. We look at your premises before you commit and can prepare drawings and photos for an application, or submit it for you.
