At Clinton Aluminum, it’s always rewarding to see our materials and services contribute to projects that enrich our communities. One recent example is a beautifully crafted aluminum sign now installed in a public park in Centerville, Ohio — reflecting the power of collaboration, craftsmanship, and precision cutting.
The project was brought to life by JNJ Fabrication, using 1″ aluminum plate that was supplied and waterjet-cut in-house by our team at Clinton Aluminum. But this wasn’t just a simple cut-and-ship job. The sign’s 18-piece construction demanded a significant amount of modification, detailed planning, and precise execution from our team to ensure every piece was fabricated exactly to spec.
The result? A clean, professionally finished sign that adds both form and function to a public space for the community to enjoy.
Why Waterjet Cutting Was the Right Choice
Waterjet cutting offers the flexibility and accuracy that traditional cutting methods often can’t match — especially for thick or intricate designs like this new sign. Unlike plasma or laser cutting, waterjet doesn’t generate heat, so the metal’s structural integrity and finish remain uncompromised. This was essential for the Centerville sign, where both precision and appearance were paramount.
Our waterjet cutting services provide versatile and reliable solutions for aluminum and stainless steel, with the capability to handle a maximum plate size of 96″ x 240″ and up to 6 inches in thickness. Whether you’re working on a detailed sign, a structural component, or a custom-cut panel, we deliver clean, accurate cuts with short lead times and consistent quality regardless of complexity.
We also offer a range of finishing options to meet your project’s specific needs, ensuring each part or plate arrives ready for fabrication or installation.
We are grateful to have partnered with JNJ Fabrication on this project. Their design, welding and finishing expertise paired perfectly with our materials and cutting capabilities. Our waterjet operators did an exceptional job managing the layout, sequencing, and final cuts — and even more importantly, moving the completed parts safely off the waterjet tables and preparing them for packaging and shipment. The result is a striking piece that adds both identity and artistry to the public space and we are proud to have played a part in this project.
