Signage Design
Our in-house design team transforms corporate identities and client ideas into tailored visual concepts. Using CAD/CAM software, we create scalable designs that align with brand guidelines and spatial requirements. This service ensures seamless integration with manufacturing processes while maintaining budgetary constraints.
Digital Printing
We produce high-resolution prints on diverse substrates including aluminium, wood, and glass. Our three dedicated print rooms utilise latex, UV, and solvent inks across four roll-to-roll and three flatbed printers. This capability enables colour consistency and rapid production for banners, vehicle wraps, and architectural graphics.
Metal Fabrication
Our workshop handles complete metal sign production, from cutting with CNC guillotines to welding and assembly. Hydraulic folding machines process sheet metal up to 3.1m wide, while in-house wiring ensures illuminated signs meet electrical standards. This service combines precision engineering with traditional craftsmanship.
CNC Routing
We create intricate lettering and designs in acrylic, aluminium, and timber using computer-controlled routing. This process enables complex shapes for both decorative and functional signage. Components are finished in dedicated paint or vinyl application departments for final assembly.

Services include structural mounting, electrical connections for illuminated signs, and compliance with safety regulations.
