Corflute sheet
Corflute is the light, waterproof fluted board used for real estate signs, election signs, site hoardings and floor protection. It is cheap, tough and easy to cut with a knife.
Plastics Hub NZ supplies blank corflute sheet in white and colours. We supply the blank sheet; printing is done by you or your sign maker.

Request a quoteWhat is Corflute?
Corflute is fluted polypropylene: two flat polypropylene walls joined by thin ribs, so the board is mostly air. That makes it light and stiff in one direction and easy to cut. The name is a trade name that has become the everyday word for the material.
Sheets made for printing have a surface treatment so inks adhere; tell us if you need print-ready board.
Key properties
Light and waterproof
Corflute does not absorb water, rot or go soggy, so it suits outdoor signs and wet sites.
Cheap and tough
It is one of the lowest-cost sign boards and takes knocks without cracking.
Easy to cut
Corflute cuts with a sharp knife or blade, and can be scored and folded across the flutes.
Stiffer one way
The flutes make it stiffer along their length, so run them vertically on a sign that has to stand in the wind.
Print-ready grades
Treated sheet accepts screen and digital print; ask for print-ready board if that is the plan.

- What is corflute made of?
- Polypropylene. Corflute is two thin polypropylene walls joined by ribs, which is why it is light, waterproof and easy to cut.
- Is corflute the same as corrugated polycarbonate?
- No. Corflute is fluted polypropylene sign board. Corrugated and twin-wall polycarbonate are roofing and glazing sheets, which Plastics Hub NZ does not supply.

- No, we supply the blank sheet. Your sign maker or printer can print it, and we can supply print-ready board.
- Can you cut corflute to size?
- Cutting is available on certain materials at certain depots. Request a quote with your sizes and we'll confirm.
