Signage Solutions
At Sign Design GB we understand that making sure your business signage is effective can be the difference between success and failure.
We provide a comprehensive range of products and services specifically tailored to your individual requirements. If you’re planning a new signage project, rebranding or just replacing existing signage – we’re here to help. With our vast experience in sign design, installation and maintenance you can trust us to get the job done right.
Flat Panel Signs
Flat panel signs are one of the most economical ways to brand your shop, retail space, office, warehouse or other business premises.
We offer a comprehensive range of panel materials to suit budget and durability requirements and can produce profile cut panels to any shape using our in-house CNC routing equipment. We will then bring your sign to life by applying a full colour digital print to the front of the panel, or using cut vinyl materials to produce striking yet cost-effective signage that not only looks great but is virtually maintenance free.
We only use the most appropriate materials to ensure that your sign stands the test of time and provides maximum impact. Being cost effective doesn’t have to mean compromising on quality, there are many additional options to make your signage more visually appealing such as stand-off lettering, bespoke symbols or shapes, feature panels or illumination.
Tray Signs
Sign trays offer an affordable and flexible solution for your exterior signage. Whether mounting built up or flat cut letters onto the tray or simply applying vinyl to the front aspect, a tray sign is a great external solution to really get your business noticed.
Typically made from aluminium, aluminium composite (ACM) or stainless steel, we can advise on the ideal material for your fascia sign. We will also work with you to get the perfect colour with powder coating to specific RAL colours – a great option for ACM trays to add colour to your exterior signage.
The sign tray can either have custom vinyl graphics applied with your branding – a simple and cost-effective solution – or for something a little more premium, flat cut or built up lettering can be mounted to the tray to give it a more 3D type effect.
The edges are folded over so it creates a sleek and professional looking folded tray sign, meaning that all fixtures are hidden and out of sight.
To add an extra dimension, a tray sign is perfect for use with additionally fitted uplighters or downlighters, or we can profile cut your logo or any lettering out of the tray and provide several illuminated options if required.
Hoardings & Way-Finding
Site hoarding boards are a great way of turning fencing into a highly effective advertising tool. Eye-catching and stylish graphics can really help companies attract interest in a development and catch the attention of passers-by.
We use high-quality materials that are strong, durable and weather resistant. Images are printed using the latest wide-format, full colour digital printers which ensure the highest quality design reproduction and short lead times. We also provide an optional range of laminate finishes to deliver additional protection in high traffic areas and prevent damage from vandalism.
Our standard board sizes include 1220mm x 2440mm (4ft x 8ft), 1500mm x 3000mm (5ft x10ft), super-size 2000mm x 3000mm and extreme size 2000mm x 4000mm. We can cut custom sizes and shapes, using our in-house CNC router and we hold considerable stock to enable us to meet urgent deadlines.
We can provide a single board right through to a high-volume project and can work from supplied artwork or offer the services of our expert design team, who will create something eye-catching and memorable which is consistent with your brand message.
Dependent on your individual project requirements, we can offer delivery only or a full installation service by our dedicated in-house team.
