THE BRIEF
This particular project took us to Travis Perkins’ Bridport branch in Dorset. As a long-term client of Creative Solutions, we had previously supplied the team in Bridport, and some other Dorset-based branches, with a selection of fully-printed Aluminium Composite Material (ACM) boards for outdoor signage. Now, happy with the existing set of signs, Travis Perkins asked if we could replicate and add to the range.
The signage was there to inform and direct customers to certain materials and products. So, importantly, the graphics needed to be clear and visible.
ACM boards are amongst our most requested product when it comes to outdoor signage and it’s easy to see why. They’re the perfect candidate for the job. Because of their rigidity, ACM boards can stand up to the most inclement weather conditions. Being entirely waterproof helps in this regard, too. From a design perspective, their flawlessly smooth surface makes for an ideal surface on which to print. The boards can be easily mounted to a variety of materials. In this case, the client was planning to drill out the boards for the fixings themselves.
