Poly digital material for Menu Boards

I am looking to produce menu boards and in the past I have printed on translucent film and then stuck them to polycarbonate, but I do not need to be thick so I was curious if there is any digital material that I can print directly onto?

Thanks!

We print directly to acrylic or poly all the time. Ideally, we reverse print onto a clear and back it up with a white substrate.

Gotcha, I don't have a flatbed printer. I have a Mutoh 1624 will this still work? What stock do you use? (mfg, thickness??)

I really appreciate the response.

Sorry, no..... I don't think it will work with your setup. I was just answering the question.

There are some trade show header substrates that you might be able to consider. It's about .060 in thickness. We printed on it with our Roland and it eventually dried. We also used a reverse print for that and laid white translucent over the backside. Ask your supplier for tradeshow header stock. It has a slight textured pebbly feel to it.
