At Graphic Impact in Tucson, we fabricate premium University of Arizona Track and Field record boards from high‑clarity acrylic and print them on the reverse side using our flatbed UV printer. The result is a brilliant, glass‑like finish with graphics protected behind the acrylic surface—perfect for showcasing school pride, athlete achievements, and program history. Even better, our modular design makes data updates fast and cost‑effective, so you can keep every record current without replacing the entire display.

Why Reverse‑Printed Acrylic Is the Gold Standard

Second‑surface (reverse) printing means your artwork, logos, and text are printed on the back of the acrylic panel. This protects the ink behind the acrylic face, delivering a sleek, glossy look that resists abrasion and cleaning chemicals. For busy athletic facilities where players, staff, and fans interact with signage daily, reverse printing provides the durability you need and the polished presentation you want.

• High visual impact: Color saturation and depth are exceptional, even from a distance.
• Protection built in: Graphics are sealed behind the acrylic—no exposed vinyl or surface ink.
• Easy maintenance: Wipes clean with standard non‑abrasive cleaners.
• Long‑lasting: UV‑cured inks resist fading under interior lighting.

How We Fabricate Your Record Board

Each board starts with premium acrylic, precision‑cut to size and shape. We then print your design in high resolution on our flatbed printer, mirror‑reversing the artwork so it reads correctly from the front. For added depth, we can apply an opaque white ink layer behind the colors, ensuring excellent legibility on any wall color.

• Material options: 1/4" or 3/8" acrylic; clear, frosted, or tinted.
• Edge treatments: Flame‑polished or beveled edges for a refined, finished look.
• Hardware choices: Brushed aluminum standoffs, concealed French cleats, or low‑profile mounts.
• Protective backer: Optional rigid backer to add stiffness for larger installations.

Data Is Easily Updated—Here’s How

Track and field records change—sometimes often. We engineer our record boards so updates are quick:

• Modular rows or slats: Individual acrylic rows can be swapped without removing the entire board.
• Replaceable inserts: We design clear “windows” for printed inserts that slide in from the side or lift out at the top.
• Section‑by‑section reprints: Because we keep your art on file, we can reprint specific sections fast and match color perfectly.

Prefer a fully printed single panel? No problem—we can still update specific areas by producing perfectly matched replacement overlays that preserve the seamless look of the original board.

Design That Reflects Arizona Pride

From the Block “A” to signature red and navy palettes, we ensure every detail aligns with University of Arizona branding. Our design team provides proofs for layout, typography, and hierarchy so records are easy to scan and celebrate.

• Custom categories: Sprints, distance, hurdles, relays, field events, indoor vs. outdoor.
• Clear hierarchy: Event name, record time/mark, athlete, year, and notes.
• Brand styling: UA colors, logos, and background textures that reinforce school identity.
• Photo integration: Add action shots, historic moments, or team milestones for storytelling.

Installation Built for the Real World

These boards are designed for practice facilities, hallways, lobby areas, and stadium interiors. We survey the wall, recommend appropriate hardware, and fabricate to fit the space.

• Secure mounting: Standoff kits or concealed cleats rated for the panel’s weight.
• Glare management: Optional matte/frosted acrylic or anti‑glare overlays for bright lighting.
• Scalability: Single feature boards or multi‑panel wall systems that can grow with your program.

Maintenance and Longevity

Reverse‑printed acrylic is inherently low‑maintenance. Dust with a microfiber cloth and clean occasionally with a mild, non‑abrasive solution. Because graphics sit behind the acrylic face, your board stays pristine—no peeling edges or scuffed ink.

Typical Sizes and Layouts

Every facility is different. We commonly produce 24" × 36" feature boards, 36" × 72" program boards, and multi‑panel arrays that span entire walls. If you’re short on space, vertical layouts with stacked events keep everything legible without overwhelming the corridor.

Fast Turnaround and Smooth Reorders

We keep your approved artwork, fonts, and color profiles on file to streamline reorders and updates. Need to add a new school record after a meet? Send us the details, and we’ll produce the updated row or insert quickly. Our in‑house production means faster timelines and consistent quality.
