59 Issue 254 - August / September 2024 email: news@signlink.co.uk MODULAR SIGN SYSTEMS Perhaps one of the most common types of signs offered to the market, modular sign systems are well suited to all manner of environments, such is their extremely high level of flexibility. From visiting your local hospital to walking the corridors of offices, the chances are that you will encounter some form of modular sign system on your travels. There is plenty of demand for this type of work, however, with this comes plenty of competition from other sign-makers also seeking to take advantage of the amount of work on offer. So, what can you do to stand out from the crowd and capture the most valuable contracts? SignLink speaks with several manufacturers and suppliers that have interests in this market to find out about their latest products developed to support those working in the modular sign systems, with an eye on how these solutions can support business growth. A Changing Market Up first is Nova Aluminium, which specialises in providing high-quality aluminium systems for signage. Sign sales manager Lisa Sperring says while the market is busy and popular with signmakers, there is room for growth, with the sector changing all the time. As such, those seeking to succeed and grow need to ensure that they have the right equipment in place to create eye-catching applications. “Our recent investment in a CNC router proves this and has enabled us to provide customers with more options, not just when it comes to wayfinding, but in all of the systems we supply,” Sperring says. “Alongside this we have also moved into the post and rail market with a recent investment of a blind riveting machine. This means panels can now be cut to any shape and have the channel seamlessly and mechanically fitted to the rear of the composite or aluminium, powder coated in-house and delivered directly to the customer on our own vehicles; we are well placed to meet the lead times our customers demand.”. Leading on from this, Sperring offers an insight into where the market as a whole could be heading. Speaking with optimism, Sperring is expecting the sector to move “onwards and upwards”, with no limit to the imagination associated with this signage. “We are always striving to come up with something new and innovative to stay ahead of the market,” Sperring comments, continuing: “Our in-house design team are always up for a challenge so happy to work with our customers to bring their design ideas to life. We understand aluminium and how it works, its strengths and its weaknesses, so will continue to use it as the market changes and adapts.” So, what solutions are proving popular with Nova Aluminium customers?
