THE BRIEF

Having worked with Total Renewable Solutions on a variety of design briefs in the past, it was a great pleasure to liaise again with a loyal returning customer. From vehicle graphics and external retail signage, to full vinyl wraps for an air source heat pump, Total Renewable Solutions know they can rely on us to provide a quality product and an unbeatable level of service!

The focus for this particular brief was to supply a range of outdoor signage products for one of their retail premises. This would include an illuminated Flexface sign, a heavy-duty projecting aluminium tray sign, some high-quality frosted window graphics for their main door, and two full-colour printed forex 3mm board signs. The design team got straight to work!

Aluminium tray signs are a wonderfully dynamic product that offers a much more unique aesthetic than a standard panel sign. With a striking 3D effect, no visible fixings, and the graphic print of your choosing, tray signs are a superb option for any business looking to make a statement with their customers and create a strong brand identity. The beauty of tray signs is that they’re not required to be fixed to a flat surface—and neither are you restricted when it comes to its design. Landscape, portrait, circular—any shape you can imagine—AND we can print on it, in stunning high-definition, the artwork, logo or branded material of your choice. They can also be illuminated with an in-built LED light.

Also, importantly, aluminium tray signs DO NOT fade, rust or corrode. They can be powder-coated in any colour, and, thanks to their inert robustness, tray signs do not require a frame. A superb product in our range—and a perfect signage option for a modern company like Total Renewable Solutions.

THE SOLUTION

We supplied the client with a Flexface light box sign, full-colour printed with the TRS company logo and brand colour scheme, which would be installed on the corrugated panelling above the entrance. 

Flexface signs are an excellent external signage option for those clients looking to make a unique visual impact. Most commonly found in retail parks and large commercial stores, the sign’s most striking feature is its internal backlight—most commonly LEDs—which creates a dazzling illuminated display. The combination of the high-quality print and dynamic lighting makes for a superb, high-impact sign.

We also designed, manufactured and installed the aluminium tray sign for the client. After creating the relevant artwork for the sign, using the company’s two-tone green colour scheme, branding and leaf-themed logo, the graphics were then printed in full-colour and finished with a high-quality matte laminate. The self-adhesive prints were then applied to the fabricated aluminium tray signs and installed to the corner of the building.

As well as two additional full-colour printed forex 3mm board signs, we also supplied a frost-effect vinyl decal for the main door windows. The vinyl would feature the Total Renewable Solutions company logo with a stylish etched finish. Window frosting can be a superb branding opportunity for a business premises; it’s a subtle yet effective method of projecting your company name and catching the eye of your customers. The TRS vinyl logo was applied in a large peel back sheet. As the vinyl is tacked, our installation team checked the integrity, removed any air pockets, and ensured that all the edges were flat and fully adhered. The result: a stunning branded window display! 

The client was thrilled with all aspects of the external signage brief. Each product more than met their expectations, and they were delighted with the service we provided. We look forward to our next project with Total Renewable Solutions.
