TIPS FROM THE TEAM We can print white, metallics and tints of colours onto a variety of clear, optically clear, frosted and white vinyls, so unleash your creativity for some show-stopping window displays.
/GLAZING
Tara Dickens Operations Support
DDA COMPLIANCE DOESN’T NEED TO STIFLE YOUR CREATIVITY: WITH FULL COLOUR AND METALLIC PRINT FINISHES, FROSTED DOTS ARE ONLY THE BEGINNING. We are experts in providing an extensive range of window film solutions for glass, from achieving compliance on building projects to creating stunning displays with full colour printing, including metallic print finishes. As well as ensuring compliance with building regulations, window film can be used to overcome a wide range of glass-related issues: solar films to avoid excess heat; safety, security and bomb-blast films for added protection; and frosted window films for privacy.
Most internal glazing requires some form of marking in order to comply with ‘Disability Discrimination Act’ (DDA) building regulations, but you are no longer restricted in what can be achieved, with standard window dots being superseded by an array of creative possibilities. With an expert understanding of the solutions available, we can help bring your glazing to life.
Window films can be printed in full colour, which not only retains the practical benefits, but in addition allows you to design and create stunning visual displays. With removable and repositionable films also available, there is great flexibility as to how and where these films can be used.

/MANIFESTATIONS Manifestation is another name for window graphics with the purpose of complying with DDA regulations. These building requirements prevent people walking into the glass and injuring themselves, so it’s important that they are considered.

TIPS FROM THE TEAM Full height glazing graphics have to be compliant with DDA regulations. The minimum requirements are for two rows of 50mm dots, squares or a band, located between 85 to 100cm high and also between 140 to 160cm high. Dave Lister Sales and Marketing Manager
P 10
Optically clear printed vinyl can create a level of privacy without blocking out light or obscuring the view entirely.
Cut frosted window vinyl in interesting shapes complies with DDA regulations whilst allowing creativity.
Full window frosting with only small sections cut out adds extra privacy. Frosted vinyl is also available in different grades of opacity depending on your privacy requirements.
One-way vision film means that from inside you can see out, without compromising the light allowed into the building, but from the outside, all you see is the graphic. A great solution for glass buildings.

TIPS FROM THE TEAM Clean your window vinyls with normal soapy water. Harsh cleaning agents can affect the print and adhesive. Steve Robinson Installations Manager

/FABRIC WE HAVE INVESTED IN THE LATEST DYE SUBLIMATION TECHNOLOGY TO PROVIDE STUNNING, HIGH QUALITY PRINTS ONTO A RANGE OF FABRICS. Dye sublimation is the most superior way to print stunning, high quality images onto a wide range of fabrics. With dye sublimation, the ink transfers into the fabric rather than just attaching to the surface, maintaining full flexibility of the fabric once printed, which no other digital print solution is able to offer. With the ability to also machine wash the fabrics once printed, this really is an extremely versatile way of producing eye-catching graphics for a range of applications. Fabrics are proving to be a key product for use in many different areas both indoor and outdoor, such as retail and promotional graphics, exhibition displays and interior commercial office environments. The fantastic range of materials and their usability encourages design agencies, exhibition contractors, retailers and architects to be extremely innovative.
.CO.UK
Tension fabric systems are a cost-efficient solution in many situations, as the graphic can be easily interchanged by unskilled personnel without the need for expert installers. These systems can also be backlit illuminated with LED or fluorescent lighting to create eye-popping stand out displays. Fabric printing also has environmental benefits, with its use of water-based inks and recycled and recyclable materials. Even the largest of fabrics can be easily folded and packaged, making for reduced transportation costs.

/VINYL SELF-ADHESIVE VINYL IS AN EXTREMELY VERSATILE MEDIUM THAT IS USED FOR A RANGE OF ADVERTISING, PROMOTIONAL AND GENERAL COMMUNICATION SOLUTIONS. With a range of finishes available including metallic and laminate effects, the work produced can be visually dramatic. Along with standard colours you can print on vinyl, cut it into whatever shape you can imagine, and apply it to most surfaces regardless of their shape or size. Retail spaces and office environments use self-adhesive vinyl for window graphics, manifestations, floor graphics, signage and custom-printed wallpapers in order to produce eye-catching graphic displays.

MAXIMISE YOUR RETURN ON MARKETING INVESTMENT THROUGH THE CARE AND ATTENTION TO DETAIL WE INVEST WHEN PROVIDING EXHIBITION AND EVENT SOLUTIONS.

A 24 metre, custom-built fabric exhibition stand with lighting rig and custom plinths for exhibits.
.CO.UK
Modular exhibition stands usually consist of a variety of standard sized, interlocking components which can be installed and dismantled with a minimum amount of tools, labour and cost. These stands can be easily reconfigured to fit within an existing shell scheme or space only, without the need to adapt any of the individual parts. Once the display has been dismantled, it can then be packed away in transportable storage containers or durable bags until the next event. Custom building allows the stand to be totally bespoke according to your needs. Whilst it is not necessarily as simple to erect and dismantle as a modular system,
clever design and planning does allow for elements of a previous stand design to be re-engineered in order to make it more cost-effective. With a reputation for big ideas, we are often involved in some of the world’s most exciting events, providing large-scale graphic print and installation services that help companies and their sponsors achieve the stand-out they desire. Whether it be an 80 metre banner, heras fence printing, marquee wraps or miles of barrier graphics placed along the route of a sporting event, we have the capabilities to deliver a grand scale solution. Whichever route you decide to choose, the high quality materials we use set your stand apart and will ensure the money you have invested is put to best use. We will work with you every step of the way to maximise your return on investment.

TIPS FROM THE TEAM If you have an usual space or area in which to exhibit, talk to us about a pop-up stand that can be specifically tailored to your requirements. Dave Lister Sales and Marketing Manager
3X1
When supplying artwork for pop-up exhibition displays you will need to supply the pop-up as a single piece of artwork, with all the joins marked by a solid magenta line set up as a spot colour named ‘CUTTER’. Remember to carefully check the specification provided to you by your account handler and try to place text so that the joins sit between letters and not through them.

DOUBLE STRIKE PRINTING Double quantity of ink to make images appear bolder with more depth of colour. DPI [DOTS PER INCH] A measure of picture resolution or printer dot density. The higher the DPI, the finer the image will be. Generally, 300 dpi is considered minimum for production of magazines but in large format printing, 100-150 dpi is considered adequate at printed size. This is due to the distance from which the prints are usually viewed. DPI is also used to judge the quality of images in printing files.

Either as a spot colour, or printed in the same mix as other colours (CMYK) to produce a bolder image which is less transparent and has more vibrant colour.
SOLVENT PRINTING A kind of printing that uses solvent inks, which are chemically aggressive and work their way down into the substrate. SPLIT BATTENS Hidden fixing systems designed to provide an effective way of hanging graphic panels to vertical walls.
