♻️ Eco-Sensitive Signage for Leisure Environments 🌿 💚
Leisure destinations and outdoor venues may be feeling increasing pressure to deliver high-quality visitor experiences alongside demonstrating their commitment to environmental stewardship.
We know that when it comes to signage, it’s important to balance practical function with sustainability and longevity, without compromising on uniqueness or devaluing the visitor experience.
As a trusted supplier to the leisure industry for nearly 60 years, we help our clients make eco-sensitive choices that fit their budget and practical requirements, while meeting the environmental aspirations and expectations of their visitors.
Read on for our top tips on achieving sustainable value without compromising on style or performance.
Isitwood - The All-Rounder
With its convincing real wood effect, high durability and low-maintenance properties, our proprietary Isitwood range is a versatile solution for venues of all sizes. It offers a high-quality wood-plastic composite product without a premium price tag – providing a cohesive, rustic look for a complete signage solution, with the added reassurance of its low-impact manufacturing processes and long-lasting durability.
FSC Timber - Sustainable Style
For venues seeking a more traditional or premium aesthetic, our FSC®-certified timber is sustainably sourced and offers authentic character, long-lasting performance, and the natural beauty and individuality of real wood.
Choose from a range of customisable options, including twin-posted and directional signs, or talk to us about commissioning crafted bespoke signage for your projects.
This bespoke welcome sign for Dartington Hall was part of a full estate signage upgrade, with a purposeful choice of materials to align with their sustainability values.
Recycled Plastic - The Bold One
If a wood aesthetic isn’t quite right for your venue, our recycled plastic signs offer a highly sustainable and versatile option that requires minimal maintenance. Its distinctive and modern look boldly draws attention to its recycled origins, whilst its sturdy structure is ideal for long-term outdoor use.
Crafting Nature's Elements
We blend our finely honed traditional craftsmanship skills with modern manufacturing techniques, allowing us to work with a wide range of natural materials, including stone, granite and bronze.
This enables us to create unique signage that complements its surroundings and is ideal for natural environments. Like this interactive stone interpretation sign, which formed part of a site-specific signage system for the Jurassic Coast. Designed to withstand harsh outdoor elements while blending seamlessly into its natural surroundings.
Signage That Does More
Signage with updatable elements, such as our information boards, replacement rails and portable A-frames, allows for timely messaging without the need for new signage or printing. Integrating maps, QR codes and digital information into signage can also help reduce the need for printed resources.
