How We Manufacture Signed Shirt Acrylic Display Cases 

As one of Europe’s only true cast-acrylic foundries, we handle custom manufacturing at our factory in Scotland, with every case precision-cast under one roof. Our process pairs premium quality with innovative solutions. We cut every panel to the exact size your memorabilia collection needs, with quality control at each stage.

Our Custom Manufacturing Process

We take your order from concept to completion through a structured workflow:

  1. In-house project management takes your first call, places your order with the design studio, and guides it through casting to delivery.
  2. We measure the shirt after deciding how you want it displayed to ensure proper dimensions and that the case has enough depth for the fabric.
  3. In finishing and personalisation, we add names or numbers, so each case matches its shirt.

Note: There is no Minimum Order Quantity (MOQ); our team will produce a single custom piece at a price tailored to your budget.

Sustainable Solutions

At Midton, we value sustainability, so good sourcing means quality, traceability and sustainability at every step. We cast each piece at our Scottish foundry using large-scale castings, while the acrylic comes from trusted international suppliers.

Our sustainable manufacturing includes recycled acrylic with up to 70% reprocessed content. Over the years, we have worked to reduce our environmental impact, and a 100 kW solar system now supplies about 30% of our energy.

Graham Ramsay, Design Director

Working with Midton has been a great experience. They brought their expertise to us and took sections of the Racecourse ground turf and transformed them into stunning memorabilia pieces for our fans around the world. Midton really brought my vision to life and have been a great partner for this.

GAY TIMES has worked with Midton twice now, and on both occasions they went above and beyond to make it an easy process for us. And, of course, on both occasions we were absolutely delighted by the awards they created for our flagship LGBTQ+ event. We can’t wait to work with them on our next idea!

Not only do we trust in the team to deliver quality every time, we also very much appreciate the excellent service provided; we’re well looked after and feel valued as a client, but equally the same can be said for our orders – always carefully and caringly packaged, and delivered on time.
Joanna Andersen
Special Projects Director, Creative Head Magazine
Midton met our needs perfectly and were an easy company to deal with. We had an idea for a corporate memento which didn’t quite work however Midton made some suggested changes and turned this into a very successful product. They understood our requirements, suggested alternative ways to meet these requirements and were flexible in what they offered. We would certainly use their services again.
Stuart Alexander
Chief Operating Officer, Hampden & Co
Midton designed us a beautiful financial tombstone for us using a combination of different materials – wood, acrylic and metal. A very reliable and professional service with a quick turnaround time and reasonable pricing.

FAQs About Signed Shirt Display Cases

What are the benefits of using clear acrylic display cases for sports memorabilia?

Clear acrylic provides full visibility of the shirt and signature while keeping it safe, and display cases shield memorabilia from damage. Acrylic panels protect shirts from dust and fading, while UV protection reduces yellowing over time.

Preserving a signed shirt starts with the material:

  • Enhanced strength: Acrylic display cases are made from durable materials for long-lasting use. 
  • Versatility: Display cases can be wall-mounted or freestanding.
  • Effortless adaptability: Display cases with slat wall interiors allow quick shirt swaps.

These features make clear acrylic suitable for showcasing football shirts and other sports memorabilia, from a ball on a stand to a basketball shirt.

Tip: Ensure the acrylic explicitly states a high UV-resistance percentage, ideally 92% to 98%.

How do I choose the right size, thickness & features for a signed shirt display frame?

Buy a ready-to-hang frame, and check that the packaging protects it on delivery. Look for cases with pinboard-matching matting or built-in hanger-shaping pins. 

Consider these key factors before you buy:

  • Most shirts fit in cases around 550 mm to 750 mm wide, so measure yours before your purchase.
  • When showcasing a signed shirt, choose a high-quality display case to prevent dust accumulation, fabric sagging and autograph fading.
  • A thickness of at least 4 mm to 5 mm is recommended to prevent bowing or warping over time.
  • Properly designed mounts support the shirt without leaving it hanging under its own weight.
  • A sealed case protects the fabric and signature from dust, dirt, humidity and accidental spills.

Durability is ideal for signed jerseys, and a signed shirt display frame suits any room or office when sized properly. The same checks apply to other sports memorabilia items, from boots to balls.

How do I maintain acrylic display cases?

Don’t place a display case in direct sunlight, above a radiator or against a damp exterior wall. Prolonged light exposure can fade signatures, and that damage is cumulative. Follow these steps to keep the case in perfect condition for preserving your collection of football shirts and other sports memorabilia:

  1. Clean the case with a soft cloth.
  2. Avoid solvent-based or window cleaners, which can crack acrylic.
  3. Apply an anti-static polish every two to four weeks to help protect the surface and keep dust off.

Tip: Use display frames with built-in supports to avoid damage.
