A challenging brief to provide a short term advertising opportunity with minimum damage to a privately owned, residential building was the basis for our first project carried out for Southwark Council by Allsignsgroup. The solution was a 5m x 2m lightweight ’spiritflex’ tensioned banner system (www.spirit-displays.co.uk) printed and installed at high level by Allsignsgroup installation teams.
I am please to let you know that we were amazed with your staff. They are very professional and detailed people. General thoughts from my workplace are that the sign exceeded their expectations. Once again, a huge thank you from me and be assured that if I have to deliver a similar project, I will be in touch.

To support their acquisition of Scitex Vision, the market leader in industrial wide-format digital printing, Hewlett Packard chose Allsignsgroup to print and install a series of branded mesh banners to the outer framework of their Bracknell HQ.
The acquisition has expanded HP’s leadership in printing into the industrial wide-format category, which includes signage and industrial applications such as billboards, banners, street advertising and packaging. As owners of both Scitex XL Jet3 and HP large format printers, Allsignsgroup were therefore the perfect partner to carry out this high impact campaign.

Working with SEGRO plc for over 15 years, it was no surprise when we received a phone call informing us of an event that was fast approaching.
SEGRO required four 6m tall fabricated aluminium illuminated monoliths for 4 sites in Paris.
These were required for a tour of their major assets in continental Europe for the financial analysts of the market and would be seen by the top management of SEGRO.
The signs were designed, manufactured and delivered in 3 weeks in time for the event. Allsignsgroup’s David Mearns was responsible for the project and worked closely with SEGRO and their ground workers ensuring the structural foundation requirements were met.
Signs were loaded onto an articulated lorry and delivered to the 4 locations over a 2 day period, ready for installation and in time for the event.
Your team have been so reactive and stuck to our tight deadlines! Thank you for your great help and assistance on this. I’m sure we’ll have the pleasure to work together in the future
Anne - Marie Deroubaix of SEGRO, France.

Leading agency George P. Johnson awarded the L.G. product launch set up to Allsignsgroup. A combination of Pantone-matched matt films to ensure excellent photographic results and direct to substrate printing produced a superb set up at the Delfina Hotel, London SE1.

The event was on an extremely tight timescale and the hotel had to be left immaculate. These machines are unbelievably quiet as shown in the demonstration with the plasma screens installed by Allsignsgroup. Our excellent team of installers executed this with a minimum of fuss leaving a content client looking forward to revolutionising the world of washing.

For possibly the most prestigious event in the business calendar, the CBI’s Annual Dinner & Conference (www.cbi.org.uk) at the Grosvenor Hotel in Park Lane, Allsignsgroup were delighted to design and build a series of large, free-standing light box units with printed graphics, to advertise their Enterprise of the Future campaign.
Acting as large backdrops, the light boxes were each 8m wide and 2.4m high and were printed onto a seamless, single piece of tensioned PVC skin.

With the Prime Minister and Chancellor in attendance, our installation team were required to work under the tightest of security measures, with attention to health & safety of utmost importance. We were given a 3 hour window to install the graphics and needed to remove the signs at 3am the following morning in order to make way for the next conference.
For the second year running, Allsignsgroup delivered a first class service. Professionally project managed, installed and removed on time with very tight deadlines, we look forward to working with Allsignsgroup again soon.

Allsignsgroup were given the job of completely designing and fitting out a large marketing suite cabin for the building company, Inspace Partnerships. Large scale graphics were printed onto vinyl, foamex and dibond substrates both internally and externally, including special, full colour graphics that needed to be installed onto roller blinds, ensuring maximum exposure 24 hours a day and can now be seen from Townmead Road, SW6. The fit-out included a full fit out of all furniture, kitchen and bathroom displays with fully fitted carpets, tiles and internal graphics.

The project was delivered on budget and on time with all parties involved expressing extreme satisfaction.
“I would like to personally thank everybody for their efforts in making this succeed, it has allowed us to demonstrate to the client that we can accommodate their needs in the For Sale sector and are able to deliver on time and to a high standard which is an asset to them in the current market.
Gary Skinner, Operations Director, InSpace Partnerships.
On behalf of Astral Homes and the Affinity Sutton Group, I would like to thank you all very much for your contribution to making the launch of the marketing suite at The Gallery, SW6 a success this weekend. Please can you thank Paul at allsigns and Frances at By Design, we got off to a great start and have reserved 5 properties so far…..you all did your bit and I was immensely proud to be associated with this scheme.

Once again, we were asked to produce and install external signage and displays for the prestigious VM World European Exhibition held at the Palais des Festivals et des Congrès, in Cannes. With over 4000 IT professionals in attendance, presentation of the highest standard was required.
From artwork sign-off to installation completion, we were given seven days. With the deadline drawing ever nearer, two trucks werre required to speed their way to the south of France to meet our installation teams and, ultimately, achieve the event deadline.
Works included several large format printed banners for the exterior and free-standing three-sided custom built displays that were used as part of the stage graphics. Recycled substrates were used where possible.

Two trucks were required to get all the items to the south of France and our installers met the delivery on site to commence the fit-out.

At Allsignsgroup, we always like a challenge and when Taylor Wimpey (www.taylorwimpey.co.uk) announced the branding requirements for their January 2008 sales campaign, designed to attract first time buyers, we were only too happy to help.
The challenge: only ten days to process, produce and deliver nearly 9000 items of marketing material that included banners, pull up display stands and other point of sale products to a nationwide network of over 500 sales outlets operated by both the Bryant Homes (www.bryanthomes.co.uk) and George Wimpey (www.georgewimpey.co.uk) brands.
The result: a feat of project management and a dedicated six man team working through the Christmas 2007 shut down period, processing the various different orders and coordinating delivery to all the separate sites.
This really does prove that anything is possible given the right attitude and determination to see a job through to completion. The subsequent success of this campaign provided a real sense of achievement for all parties involved.
I was amazed with how well this entire project was brought together. The scale and importance of this project left no margin for error, but your professional approach and energy of your team ensured that this campaign got off to the best start possible. Thank you!
Karen Cullis, George Wimpey

We have just manufactured and installed the signage at the Landmark Tower, which at 44 storeys is one of the tallest new buildings in Canary Wharf. We used a revolutionary new signage fixing called Groundplug to install an immense v-board in a very confined space. The limited area restricted the large foundations we would have traditionally recommended for a sign of this size.

Groundplug does away with excessive groundwork, environmentally unfriendly concrete pouring and the need for a second day’s site visit.
The Groundplug anchoring system has been used before on the continent but this is the first time the technique has been used in the UK. The installation was so successful that I believe this methodology will revolutionise the future of exterior signage installation.

These amazing printers are capable of high speed outdoor-ready direct printing onto almost any substrate: glass, dibond and acrylics up to 30mm thick. Allsignsgroup prints using Fujifilm Sericol’s UviJet CMYK inkset with 2 extra colours: light magenta and light cyan. This, coupled with the Inca’s use of small drop printheads, means smoother colour transitions which minimise the graininess of light colours such as skin tones.
What this means for our customers is a fabulous long lasting quality print and even faster turnaround. It also cuts material wastage as the print is no longer mounted onto the final substrate.
