Kelly the Kangaroo gets a wrap!
We were recently given an exciting new project from the design and communication agency, Visual Assets.
As part of a recent branding exercise, Visual Assets have created a distinctive new identity for Kelly’s the self storage company.
Kelly’s self storage not only store your goods, but they are the first UK company to deliver containers to your home, then collect them at your convenience when full. To represent this, Visual Assets created Kelly the Kangaroo – a fun character that embodies the company’s service.
Reade Signs have now applied the brand to fifteen mobile storage pods. The stunning new kangaroo design is representative as it is mobile and has its own storage facility in its pouch! Our vehicle livery department completed the job with excellent, eye catching results!
Delivering you print quality and speed – every time
We have recently invested in a state of the art, all singing all dancing printer to add to our service to you.
The Vutek ® is a new breed of printer which prints in a superwide format. Rather than bore you with all the technical jargon, we have compiled a list of what our new addition can do for YOU!!!!
- High definition printing (HDP) gives a new level of image quality even at high print speeds, letting us meet tight project deadlines with the highest quality digital output
- Prints dazzling images and sharp text down to 4pt which is ideal for point of sale
- Prints direct to media, this saves on materials and labour and these savings are passed directly on to you, the customer
- Media printed with UV cured inks is certified for use around food products and in hospitals (once cured these inks are inert)
- Prints direct onto many substrates and up to 50mm thick
- Environmentally friendly, the printing process produces far less gasses and fumes than solvent printers- good for all of us!
Vutek ® marketing literature states ‘delivering the print quality and speed our customers demand – every time’. This says it all.
Oakford Homes – a blank canvas
Oakford Homes contacted Reade Signs late 2008 asking us to present some designs for their new company. The brief included branding for forthcoming developments as well as for their new head office.
Our talented in-house design team loved the challenge of having a blank canvas to design an array of signage for this brand new house-builder. We look forward to implementing the new concepts in early 2009 at their first development.
Reade Signs installed the Oakford Homes’ office branding which included a feature wallpaper at their Buckinghamshire office and we even made some co-ordinating logo’d coasters to complete the effect!
The image shows the new team at Oakford Homes set in front of their new office signs. We wish them every success for the future and look forward to working with their team.
Virtual Xperience
Virtual Xperience is an exciting marketing tool allowing you to promote your product on a digital LCD screen which then hosts images and text demonstrating your product on a loop system.
In a nutshell, it is a digital sign with a brain!
Following installations at Barratt Homes and David Wilson Homes (Eastern) for the best part of 2008 the VX system has now been installed in most of their sales and marketing suites. Their suites now look modern and minimal as there is no need for static displays that can date. ‘‘The VX systems we've installed have made a real difference in our marketing suites - the overall look and feel is smarter and more professional and our sales advisors find them an easy to use and effective sales tool, especially as we are able to update them with our latest promotions so easily. Reade Signs always give us fast and efficient technical support" Sophie Jackson, Marketing Manager for Barratt Homes and David Wilson Homes (Eastern).
