Why do we need more eco-friendly alternatives?
Eco Friendly Displays
Our range of eco-friendly display materials include honeycomb board that is light, strong and 100% recyclable. Honeycomb board can be used to build full exhibition furniture to eco-friendly pull-up displays. Perfect for product promotions in hotel receptions or retail stores.
If cardboard is not suitable for your displays, talk to us about using PVC free banner material. This lightweight material has the same strength as much heavier traditional PVC material. Suitable for banners and pull-ups this PVC alternative ensures your brand is promoted in confidence.
Vertex Marine is a fabric made from recycled plastic bottles, that would otherwise be destined to landfill or to damage our oceans, is available for promotional banners and display systems.
For larger retail displays or exhibition stands our T3 modular systems can be rented or re-used. This modular system can be used to design and build bespoke elaborate and enticing retail displays or exhibtion stands. It can be reconstructed to form a new display as your needs evolve and the graphics can be printed on to honeycomb board of PVC free banner material to suit your requirements.
As an alternative to plastic signage in and around the office why not use bamboo. Bamboo is a sustainable material and makes an attractive eco-friendly alternative to traditional plastic signs. It is also ideal for end of term awards in schools or award ceremonies as a replacement to a plastic trophy.
PVC FREE Vinyl
PVC is used in many everyday household products and has traditionally been used for print based products. Globally PVC is the third most produced plastic and is statistically the most environmentally damaging plastic. It is not recyclable here in the UK. Waste PVC products will eventually end up in landfill or incinerated releasing toxic gases like chlorine.
There are alternatives that we like to promote at every opportunity. PVC-FREE vinyl comes in many forms each with its own environmental credentials.
PP Vinyl or polypropene is 100% recyclable and produces no toxic gases if incinerated. Best suited for long-term permanent outdoor signage. It is also suitable for food and drink applications.
PET Vinyl is a more versatile alternative to PP Vinyl. It can be used for water resistant widow graphics that can be safely removed up to 2 years after application. PET is also used in the production of scuff & tear resistant floor stickers with a low slip rating. PET is 100% recyclable when you need to update your graphics.
Polyester Vinyl is perfect as a heavy-duty wallpaper. It covers up defects in the wall bringing the most from your murals, wall graphics and background print. Polyester vinyl is 100% recyclable and is actually has less environmental impact the more it is recycled.
Honeycomb Board
Honeycomb board is a strong, robust and lightweight alternative to traditional PVC pull-ups, shell scheme graphic and foam pvc signage.
Honeycomb board can be cut to build sustainable point-of-sale-units, exhibition furniture and graphic displays. Once you have finished with your application it can be placed with your general paper waste.
Bamboo
Bamboo is fast growing carbon neutral fibre that is also water efficient. Replacing your internal plastic signage with bamboo is a stylish addition to your office space. Bamboo is also an effective alternative to traditional PVC based trophies at award ceremonies.
It is available in a variety of thicknesses and can be cut to bespoke shapes to fit any design or usage.
100% recycled FSC certified paper
9 Lives 100 is produced from 100% recycled FSC® fibres. Available in many weights 9 Lives is the perfect environmentally conscious choice for all your commercial print needs. 9 Lives is also carbon balanced by the World Land TrustTM.
T3 shell-scheme systems
The T3 shell-scheme system provides endless display possibilities. The versatile nature and easy construction of the T3 shell-scheme means you can maximise every last inch of space you have available.
Perfect for retail displays or exhibition stand builds. For the retail outlet the shell can be rebuilt as many times as you like. For the temporary exhibition it can be dismantled and stored for future use. The units can even be hired from us to be returned after use and re-used.
Your graphics can be printed on one of our eco-conscious products and mounted to the shell. When you need to update the graphics they can be replaced responsibly as our PVC FREE vinyls and honeycomb boards are all 100% recyclable.
Re-use Scheme*
If you have a store room full of old redundant and outdated pull-ups or pop-ups we offer a re-use scheme. We simply re-use the mechanism you have remove the old graphics and replace them with fresh graphics printed on to 100% recyclable PVC FREE vinyl.
