THE BRIEF

Creative Solutions have cultivated a strong working relationship with Axminster Tools over the years. In recent months, we have been at the forefront of a number of different rebranding and marketing initiatives. From new fleet vehicle graphics, to high-quality retail signage, Axminster have been able to rely on us to supply a quality product.

For this particular project, we would be printing and installing Flex-Face signage at their High Wycombe retail premises.

Flex-Face Lightbox signs are an excellent choice if you’re looking for large, high-impact signage displays. Their most common use is in large commercial stores and retail parks. 

The unique feature of the sign is that it’s illuminated with an internal backlight—most commonly LEDs. What you’re left with is a visually-engaging signage display that’ll put your company name in lights!

THE SOLUTION

The team supplied and installed the Flex-Face Lightbox for Axminster Tools at their retail premises in High Wycombe:

The single-sided unit, measuring 200mm deep, with a Lightbox frame is finished in a powder-coated black and illuminated with LEDs. The sign measured 8000 x 2400mm high and was provided in six sections.

The product was supplied with Flex-Face printed and laminated skin for the back-lit LED illumination.

The full impact of the illuminated sign can be seen when the sun goes down. Not only is it an attractive visual spectacle for potential customers, who can view the signage from a considerable disgrace, it’s a great way of exhibiting the company’s new brand aesthetics.

Axminster remain happy customers after this latest project; they couldn’t have been happier with the finished product. The Lightbox sign is a real showstopper!
