Street Name Blades: Enhancing Efficiency with custom designs!

In response to growing demand for cost-effective and sustainable solutions, we are excited to introduce new options for customisable street name blades. This initiative aligns with our sustainability goals and aims to provide high-quality solutions that meet our customers' needs without over-specification.

Benefits of Custom signs

- Cost Reduction: Tailored sizes and materials lead to more affordable solutions

- Waste Minimization: Precise manufacturing reduces excess material usage

- Improved Sustainability: Efficient production and material use contribute to eco-friendly practices

- Council Compliance: Maintain adherence to local specifications while optimising resources

- Avoiding Over-Specification: Working with you to find the right balance between specification and efficiency

See below for the options on offer to reduce cost, minimise waste and increase efficiencies, with no compromising on quality; 

Character-Based Pricing

   - Transition from set-length specifications to per-character pricing to optimise overall sign length for cost-effectiveness

Design and Manufacturing Flexibility

   - Explore maximum allowable compression and letter spacing etc

   - Remove non-essential symbols for a shorter blade length design

   - Remove non-essential numbers – like house numbers etc, which means the blade height can be reduced.

Material and Size Variations

   - Reflectivity options: Choose from various reflective grades of material 

   - Using a different blade height: e.g., from 225mm to 200mm -> often rural blades are larger height -225 / 250 etc. 

Our Commitment to Sustainability and Customer Satisfaction
Our commitment to sustainability is at the forefront of this new offering. We understand that every project has unique requirements, and we are keen to work with councils and contractors to review and identify opportunities for cost savings without compromising on quality.
