    Display boards

    Signage that changes without being reprinted.

    A board goes up once. What it points at does not have to stay the same, which is the difference between signage that dates and signage that does not.

    Why this one

    A light, rigid board for a stand, a window, a back wall or an internal direction. Easy to carry, easy to put up.

    Light enough to put up yourself

    PVC foam board rather than anything you need a trade to hang. It goes on a wall, in a window, on a stand or against a back wall, and one person can carry several.

    Twenty boards, twenty codes

    Every board in a run can carry a different design and a different code at no extra cost, so a set around a site tells you which entrance people actually used.

    Matt laminated, single or double sided

    Rounded corners, drill holes and custom shapes are all made. It is a printed board rather than a compromise, and it is finished like one.

    What happens if you ask

    Five steps, and you can stop at any of them

    1. Design it, or do not

      Make it in the Design Studio, send us artwork, or let us set it from the profile you already have. None of the three costs anything and none of them commits you.

    2. Tell us what you need

      Size, quantity, and where it is going. About a minute. Those three are what a price depends on, which is why the form asks for them rather than for a paragraph.

    3. A person prices it

      By hand, not by calculator, with the delivery inside the number rather than added later. You get a link to the quote with the specification on it.

    4. You accept it, or you do not

      The quote becomes an order when you accept and pay it, and not before. Nothing is made, and nothing is charged, while you are thinking about it.

    5. It is made and sent

      Made to order and delivered. The code on it stays yours: point it somewhere else next year and the thing you are holding carries on working.

    Why order it here

    Four things a printer cannot say

    A person prices it

    Not a calculator with a margin baked in. Sizes, quantities and finishes change the cost, so somebody looks at what you asked for.

    Delivery is in the number

    Quoted with the item rather than added at a checkout. The figure you accept is the figure you pay.

    Nothing is made until you say so

    A quote is an invitation to buy. It becomes an order when you accept and pay it, and not a moment earlier.

    The code outlives the print

    Point it at something else whenever you like. The printed thing does not have to be reprinted because a number changed.

    Where it goes

    Exhibition stands, shop windows, showroom walls, internal direction signs, reception areas, back walls. Anywhere the sign is going to be looked at from a few feet rather than a few inches.

    What it is made of

    • 3mm PVC foam board as standard, 1mm and 5mm also made.
    • Matt laminated, single or double sided, indoor or outdoor.
    • Rounded corners, drill holes and custom shapes are all offered.
    • Every board in a run may carry a different design at no extra cost.

    What it is not

    The board is an indoor material by default. If it is going outside and staying there, the aluminium sign is what that is for, and it costs about twice a board of the same size.

    The code behind it

    Every one of these carries its own code, and the code points at a live profile rather than at a phone number. Change the profile and the printed thing stays correct; point the code somewhere else and it starts doing a different job without being reprinted. Each code keeps its own history, so a set of them tells you which one people used. More on that in how the codes work, and the whole range is on one page.

    If it is for a stand or a show, the events page puts the staff cards, the table stand and the board together in one setup.

    Questions people ask before they fill the form in

    What is the board actually made of?
    PVC foam board, matt laminated, single or double sided. Rounded corners, drill holes and custom shapes are all made to order.
    Can a run of boards all be different?
    Yes, at no extra cost. Every board can carry its own design and its own code, so a set around a site tells you which entrance people actually used.
    Will it survive outdoors?
    It is an indoor material by default. If it is going outside and staying there, that is the aluminium sign.
