Indoor or out, be sure to advertise your business

In our factory in Horsham, we have a range of machinery and equipment able to laser cut, CNC router, engrave, cut, laminate, print, and create a wide range of signage. It is, after all, what we do. So here’s a showcase of some of the latest signage we’ve produced:

Roll up banner with large format print

Roll-up banners come rain or shine

Double width, single stands, and even outdoor roll-up banners are a great addition to any advertising stand, promotion, or event. Straightforward to assemble, portable, easy to store, with creative prints as bright or complex as you would like, to suit any budget.
Recent examples include an outdoor banner for local company Safeguard Europe which can withstand winds of 13-18mph with a large format print on the front and a base that takes water or sand to anchor it. They have placed the banners in-store with a promotional display.
Most orders for roll-up banners come from the exhibition sector, which has been very quiet over the last year and a half but has been getting back up to running this month. CDM media have ordered not just our most popular roll-up banner size; 850mmx2m but also some that are double-width banners.

Vehicle graphics including plant machinery

Vehicle signwriting – branding on the road, or building site

It’s not just vans we can add graphics, vinyl, or print too, and if you wish to brand any vehicle there is usually some space we can manage to sign write. Like this 3 tonne dumper for K Black & Sons, featuring vinyl graphics on Avery vinyl on the tipper section and beneath the seat, plant machinery isn’t a problem!
Other recent jobs include panel wraps for both C&M Fire Alarms and Mark Antony Windows with designs that have more emphasis on their logos and colours. Both the FORD transit courier for C&M and the LWB Mercedes-Benz Sprinter for Mark Antony have large format digital prints in addition to accreditations and membership logos printed and installed onto the doors and rear. A great addition to their fleets, especially for C&M Fire Alarms celebrating 50 years of trading, who have used us for their van signwriting for over eleven years now, and we’ve signwritten 15 vehicles for them in that time!

C&M Fire Alarms branded FORD transit van

Rebranding or brightening up space

With our large format printers, we’re able to cover any interior or exterior space. Like these signs for the Classic Services Group who have rebranded and wanted existing signage updated, they said “Just wanted to say thank you very much for the work you and the team have done, it all looks fab!”.
Interior meeting space for upgraded bikes now has a foamex board of over 3x1m with fantastic inspirational images, it’s the kind of thing we like over here at the BEL office, changing people’s spaces.

BEL Signs invests in quicker print turnaround

Within our factory in Horsham, we have the capacity to offer large format printing, with several printers able to produce digital print. This type of print can be used for digital wallpaper, window displays, vehicle graphics, van wraps, print for PVC banners, paper posters up to 1.5x30m and A0, in addition to print for roll-up banners and exhibition displays.

As requests for large format print grows as does the need for same-day requirement due to tight deadlines and ever-changing event schedules. Our clients would ideally like to take away their print at the end of the day, which is a problem for many large format printers as the print can take at least a day to ‘gas out’ which basically means dry, sometimes even longer if it a full colour print with 100% coverage.

HP latex printer allows for same-day demand

However, our new HP Latex printer has thermal inkjet printheads which allow for the ink to dry as soon as it is printed. The print is also scratch resistance with impressive quality, vibrant colours, and can be placed externally un-laminated. With this high-performance printer, it’s not only the turnaround that is quick, but the speeds are also far quicker and the printer can work remotely allowing our team to run jobs and continually print. These sharp prints are odourless allowing them to be placed indoors, making them ideal for schools, healthcare providers, and care homes.

Working again with Horsham District Council

Our first printer job on the new HPLatex Printer; town entry signs for Horsham markets for Horsham District Council Communications Department. These are printed onto specialist ferrous paper, which is a paper with additional metal added to it so that it has a magnetic quality. This allows for these types of print to be easily attached to the town entry signs without additional fixings. Horsham District Council kindly sent us artwork which we checked and then used directly. These entry signs will appear in six locations leading into Horsham advertising the markets on certain days and promoting local business and tourism.

BEL Signs takes delivery and uses new HP Latex Printer for HDC job

BEL Signs and ADAPT

We were pleased to use Amari Digital and printing technologies, or ADAPT, to order and install our HP printer. Their hardware team helped deliver and install, moving the printer into its space within our print room. Our production team has been very impressed with the quality of the print and its robustness.
Peter Fraser, Production Manager at BEL Signs commented:
“This new printer will aid us to increase productivity in all areas of our print and signage. It’s perfect for exhibition print which is an industry that is beginning to bounce back from restrictions. We aim to secure more large format digital print contracts, not only from local county councils but large scale projects for display and shows in addition to the usual digital print offering we have where we can now offer same-day delivery.”

BEL Signs working with Horsham District Council

If you are local in Horsham you might have seen some of the work we have been supplying to Horsham District Council (HDC). This includes the new Reuse Hub graphics for the Environment, Recycling, Waste, and Cleansing department in addition to uniform for Park and Countryside Services.

HDC Reuse Hub with graphics from BEL Signs

Digital graphics for The Reuse Hub

The reuse project, recently launched, is a trial being run by West Sussex County Council and HDC to help residents drop off pre-loved items that can have a new life. It is housed inside a shipping container with slight curves over the surface and a door opening at one end. HDC supplied us with artwork designs which are in the form of a large logo, with graffiti type and items cut round all the edges. We digitally printed and cut out the artwork at our factory in Blatchford Road, Horsham. The logos were printed onto MD5A, a high-performance vinyl from Metamark, which has a special adhesive system that allows large-scale printed graphics to be fitted more easily onto slightly curved surfaces. The print was also laminated and then installed onsite onto the container by our specialist team. The Reuse Hub, based at the Hop Oast site, is open Wednesday to Saturday, details can be found here. Now launched we can show the project being fitted and are proud to be part of this local innovative venture.

Embroidery for Horsham District Council

Clothing for wardens, workers and volunteers

Embroidery and heat applied details have been added to a range of clothing for staff and volunteers at Horsham District Council (HDC), including green Russell fleeces, Fruit of the Loom polo shirts, and Titanium grey Russell waterproofs jackets. All clothing includes the HDC logo and text placed on to chest sides, with the jackets, details have also been added to the reverse. Popular with workwear and uniforms, embroidery has durability, with high quality, and can be a great way to promote your business, look professional, and give customers confidence knowing staff. Logos can be created into thread and stitched onto clothing from our factory in Horsham. Waterproof jackets cannot have embroidery in order to keep their proofing, so heat-applied text and logos are an ideal way to brand workwear. Heat-applied transfers are a specialist type of vinyl that can be printed or cut and applied to garments via a heat press. These types of transfers can also cover a larger area and are great for events and short-run items.

“Looking good 😍 Fantastic job guys!” Horsham DC

Thanks to Horsham District Council for supporting local businesses and we look forward to completing more work for the various Council services and departments.

Did you know… we can offer a wide range of shop signage services?

From fascias to window graphics, digital wallpaper to A-Boards, hanging signs to built-up lettering, we have an experienced team who are able to work alongside architects and planning officers to ensure your shop looks its best, attract footfall, and welcomes in passing trade.

The Frontage

Walking down any high street, parade, or town centre, how can your shop stand out from the rest?
You’ll need an eye-catching design to create a great first impression and ideally something that reflects your brand. The shop fascia is usually the first place to start. We can offer a box tray fascia option, that can be digitally printed or designed with CAD cut lettering and designs in addition to a flat fascia. These types of signs all have their advantages, so it may be a cost-based choice, but our team can advise on the best solution for you. Think about adding built-up lettering or a 3D logo to really make it stand out from the background. Intricate designs can be laser cut and some facias and lettering can be illuminated, which is worth considering if your shop is going to open late in the evening, or if you want to add an extra wow factor.

  • Horsham Bedding Centre Rebrand Signage
  • Lettering for Impact shop signage
  • Printed Shop Signage with Window Graphics

Use Your Space

Additional signage can be used to catch extra passing footfall and tempt curiosity.
Got space for a hanging sign? Great for further advertising on busy streets seen from most angles.
Maybe an A-Board or pavement sign that you can put out every day and be packed away at night, options include signs with changeable posters or chalkboards for advertising offers.
Large window space? Think window graphics, from a few colours of CAD cut vinyl to full colour printed graphics. This can allow you to change the window with seasonal offers or continue the brand elements over the glass to speak to your customer. Simple etch film can obscure or change the viewpoint of the glass.
If your business is based outdoors consider printed banners and flags to enhance your message and advertise your brand from afar.

  • CoCo's Booster A-Board and DEJA! Ecoflex pavement signs
  • Printed hanging sign for local letting
  • Flags for outdoor use at events and as advertising

Enhance The Interior

Our digital printers can print onto a type of wallpaper, this means that plain walls can be transformed into travel destinations, views of the world, inspiration quotes, or large-scale photos, the limit is your imagination!
Other options include large vinyl shapes or text onto walls, great for brightening up the office walls, and adding colour.

  • Wall Graphics in brightly coloured vinyl for an office interior
  • Digitally print to cover a whole wall

Getting your business noticed – Van Graphics Horsham

We all notice the Sky TV vans driving around with large images of great TV shows and movies covering the whole van. It’s the same with our home deliveries, images of your shopping or slices of onion or orange covering a van. Not only do they attract attention, they add as a reminder of that brand. Van signwriting, van graphics, van decals, and van wraps all make a plain business vehicle into something that advertises and can be seen to literally drive business.

Van graphics to suit any budget

There are different options to sign write your vehicle. The best way to get your business ideas onto your vehicle, whether van, car, trailer, Luton, pick-up, etc. is to let us know your budget. A large-format printed image wrapped onto the side can cost thousands, but a simple CAD-cut design with text can be as little as £150+VAT depending on the design and size of your van. However, on average, the cost of signwriting a van such as a FORD transit is around £350+VAT. By letting us know your estimated budget we can give you a range of options, these could include partially wrapping a panel area, adding a back door wrap with an image rather than all of the van, adding special vinyl colours and materials such as reflective. Our design team has a catalogue of outlines that allows us to offer you designs shown specifically on your vehicle, so you have got a feel for the design.

Recent Vehicle Signage

Van decals and signage are some of our most popular services. Here are some recent projects for local Sussex based businesses:

Design A Loft | Ford Transit Custom
A great case study showing that just a few colours of CAD cut vinyl can be used to recreate your logo along with essential business details.

Assured Aviation | Citroen Berlingo Van
Matching closely to their brand logo colours, a grey and blue vinyl where used to create these curved shapes on both sides and onto the rear, mirroring the logo and adding a large design element.

Spot On Oven Cleaning | Citroen Berlingo L2 with rear windows
This van for a local Oven Cleaning Company based in Broadbridge Heath is a great example of a design that fills the panels with a printed visual. The Spot on Oven Cleaning logo had to be printed as it has a 3D effect that cannot be replicated by cutting it from vinyl, but this makes a lot of impact with the panels in black and text in bold.

Direct Security Partnership | Ford Fiesta Car

Local business neighbour, Direct Security Partnership are based also on Blatchford Road, and this may look like a printed wrap, but it is actually made up of vinyl. The main red and white pieces of vinyl have been put onto the sides and text added. A real outstanding effect.

Types of Van Signage

  • Basic van graphics for Countryside Handyman
  • Long Wheel Based vans with Fleet Graphics
  • CAD Cut graphics are elements of design, such as lettering, cut from large rolls of vinyl. These can be used to make simple graphics or laid up with many other pieces and colours to create a design like a jigsaw. This is often the most common and cost-effective way to sign write a vehicle. This specialist type of vinyl can last for five to seven years if treated well and cleaned correctly.
  • Print and Cut allows our large format printers to produce full-colour images, these might be your logo or photos. We can then cut around specific edges to create designs that are shaped. These are printed and laminated, again on specialist material, which is applied to the surface of the vehicle by our trained team.
  • Panel Wraps are a great way to use the flat areas on a van, they can be ‘flooded’ with an image or colour, which means they fill up the edges of that panel. Obviously at the right height for readability and a simple way to use the ‘canvas’ of a van.
  • Wrapping, although expensive, can be used to great effect, as you don’t have to wrap the whole vehicle. Sometimes a partial wrap will add a head-turning amount of colour to make a van or car half a colour. Make the wrap at a slight angle or within a shape and you can have a very striking design. Wraps can also be used in one area of the vehicle, such as the back doors, to give impact to waiting traffic and in car parks.

Your business brand onto a van

It’s easy to get your vehicle sign written, simply get in touch with these details and we can get some ideas over to you:

  • Make
  • Model
  • Year
  • Loading doors, rear windows, or panels
    Any customisation which makes it different from a standard model
  • Colour
  • Provide us with your logo
    Ideally, a vector, eps, ai, or pdf file, but can also accept jpeg
  • Any details you would like on the van:
    How to contact you, phone, web, email
    Around five bullet points of services you offer
    Social media channels your business is on
    Accreditations or Business links, such as Check-a-Trade or Yell
  • Your budget

You can find a step-by-step guide on our blog, but once we have ideas for you and your chosen design and budget is approved we have the van booked in. It can take a day to get it applied and ready, so you will need to be able to leave it with us and re-arrange any work that day. We will also need it cleaned – don’t use anything but water though!
More examples of our van signage can be found on the Vehicle Graphic page in addition to Fleet Graphics and Lutons.

Dry Transfer Service Launched at BEL Signs

We are very excited at BEL Signs to be launching a brand new service; Dry Transfers.
Dry transfers are a specialist type of rub-down prints that are ideal for prototypes, film props, museum labels, and professional model makers. Specially made to order we thought we would introduce this service with some background.

Expert Team

Industry experts, with over 11 years of expertise, our new team members have a wealth of experience when it comes to manufacturing dry transfers. Transfers can be created within 24 hours. Our factory is now well equipped to produce colours to match Pantone® swatches, but also produce a range of fluorescent, pastel, or metallic colours. In addition to matt and gloss finishes, these transfers can replicate foil blocking.

Manufacturing Dry Transfers, the process

Dry Transfers involve many steps in order to produce the transfers you will receive. Once we have accepted your artwork or created vector artwork, via briefs and proofs, the transfers can be made. A rod pulls down a fine layer of ink onto a special flat sheet, which is usually around A4 size but can be A3 or A5. This ink is dried, then a layer of glue is added and after drying, a final layer of photo-sensitive ink is applied on top. The sheet is taken to an exposure unit where chemicals are added to the reverse leaving what was exposed. The transfers are then ready to be used, they are then ’rubbed’ onto the final product or object – hence the name ‘dry transfer’. Once we have completed this process we have the film negative, so transfers can be replicated again without additional set-up.

  • Chopper logos as dry transfers

Past Projects

Speaking to our team they have chosen some examples of past projects they have worked on to give you some idea of how this service can be used:

  • A very special Spy movie – Films often need props to look real and mimic life. Dry transfers can be a way to make one-off special designs and labels to make the illusions more realistic. Our team had to produce dry transfers for a fake brand of whisky to be used on the bottle and added to the set.
  • Creative Lego pieces – one favourite transfer created was for a modeller reproducing planes, such as fighter jets, in Lego®. These pieces are over a metre in length and match an amazing level of detail, including plane livery, which is how the dry transfers were used.
  • Sci-Fi Aliens – Musical instruments with odd hieroglyph type symbols, which are in fact, blue foil dry transfers rubbed onto plastic keys for a science fiction film.
  • Exhibition graphics – one of the reasons to use a dry transfer rather than CAD cut vinyl, is the way it can be used for the smallest of text and lines. 0.5pt lines and fonts 5mm in size, can be created with precision and clarity, ideal for museum labels and exhibition pieces.
  • Restoration projects – from railway models to amps, car dashboards and chopper bikes, dry transfer lettering, and symbols are a great way to finish a restoration project. Many of these types of stickers and labels are not available, custom made ones to match the originals can be made to finish off a home project or reconstruction.

Your next project

Drainflow Fleet Graphics

Drainflow Solutions Ltd | Mercedes-Benz Sprinter MWB HiRoof van, VW Crafter MWB HiRoof, VW Transporter

Horsham based drainage and block drains specialist, Drainflow Solutions, came to us needing updated graphics and three vans adding to their fleet. Two were medium wheelbases, we were able to design an updated logo in a simple two colour vinyl design which features on all sides. Often working on the roadside, a Chapter 8 kit was added to the rear of the Merc Sprinter. Both have the various accreditation logos printed and added to the sides.

Hancocks Garden Services | Peugeot Partner

Friendly Horsham based gardener, Hancocks Garden Services wanted a simple design but something with a little impact, by wrapping the side panels in a bright green similar to the one on their website, you can allow a bigger space for details and grab attention. Basic shapes can stand out, making the text and details easy to read, especially on this Peugeot Partner van.

Van Graphics for Horsham Businesses

Cannon Plumbing & Heating | Ford Transit Custom

Pulborough based Cannon Plumbing & Heating came to us as their usual signage supplier had ceased trading. They wanted their new van to match the fleet, so our design team recreated the flame logo and our production team digitally printed the large graphic to appear on all sides. Our installation team did a great job fitted the large flames onto all sides. A design that really works on the van and tells you exactly what services Cannon offer.

Ford Transit and Tipper graphics

L.J.Hebblethwaite Ltd | L3 H2 Ford Transit

“A Cracking Job” concluded Laurence Hebblethwaite, owner of L.J. Hebblethwaite, a family-run landscaping business based in Broadbridge Heath. A client who has been using our services for over 15 years, a testimony to our customer service and installation. The van graphics are a combination of CAD cut vinyl graphics and laminated digitally printed logos which appear on all sides.

Van wrap and rebrand

Woodstock IT | VW Caddy

With a recent rebrand came this VW caddy for local computer support company Woodstock IT, based in Faygate. It features the new mint colour as a vinyl wrap which closely matches the print colour. The wrap encompasses the rear doors and wheel arches on the sides. Working well with the white text and dark blue of the van itself it shouts about the new brand and company ethos in a very concise design.

We don’t just design, produce and install vehicle graphics onto vans, we can also cover cars, trailers, minibuses, grab trucks, 4x4s and Lutons amongst others.

Recent examples of c-19 health and safety

If your space requires a high level of hygiene we can offer an anti-microbial film, which can be applied to almost any surface. Easy to clean, transparent and waterproof this film allows easy cleaning and helps to stop the spread of germs and reduce them.
We used this material for a pub in Crawley. Our expert team applied this shield product onto areas with a high level of usage and contact including the bar top, tabletops and a variety of different door handle, including entrance, fire exit and toilet doors. This gives the public reassurance and enables surfaces to be more easily cleaned and maintained. Contact us for a bespoke quotation.

Our safety screens have been very popular with installations at local Horsham garage Nightingales for their front reception area, local RSPCA offices in their client-facing welcome area with the screen surrounding the front desks, in addition to Southwater, based Coco Hair Salons.

Henfield Storage Horsham adds clarity

We’ve been working with Henfield (Hire &) Storage since 2018 [see our blog Driving Business] when we met the then manager at a local networking event. We took on the CAD cut vinyl and installation of their van graphics on the various additions to their growing fleet.

Following on from Henfield Hire & Storage, recent changes to the business are now focused solely on storage. So the business is Henfield Storage, Horsham. As such the signage on the Horsham site needed to be changed to reflect this including the graphics on their fleet of vehicles.

Henfield Hire Horsham Signage

All change

The change in signage required large format printing of their branding, with their cheeky smiley storage icon, red and turquoise colours, and handwritten font. The main sign was manufactured in sections due to its size. 3mm thick Aluminum Composite Material (ACM) 6m x 1.5mm with digital print and clear laminate for external use. Our installation team worked with a cherry picker to install the sign high above the main warehouse. Further digital prints were added for entrance wayfinding, and two foamex panels with the store logo to add to the site for information and directional use.

Vehicle graphics for Henfield Hire

Vehicle graphics across a range of sizes

We have experience and expertise to install graphics across a range of all sizes of vehicles; from larger type vans, such as Luton and box style vans, to long wheelbase Transits, Tippers, Pick-ups, 4x4s along to smaller Crafter and Berlingo. Along with the popular Transit Custom, Vauxhall Vivaro, and Renault Master, we have the vehicle outlines to ensure the job can be fitted correctly.

For Henfield Storage it was a matter of updating some vehicles, just changing the main text sections, for others new branding and graphics were needed on all sides. We installed onto:

  • IVECO Eurocargo 9.5 Ton Lorry fitting graphics to the front and rear doors and front cab section
  • A VW Crafter Luton Van with replacement graphics to both sides and front cab.
  • Ford Transit L1H1, replacement graphics
  • Ford Transit Custom, full branded graphics on all sides.

Installtion of Signage at Horsham Branch by BEL Signs

Installation at the Horsham site

Our team needed to reach the top of the external covered space at Henfield Storage, so we used a local plant machinery company to install via a cherry picker. The Horsham site situated on Nightingale Road Industrial Estate just a few minute’s drive from us in Blatchford Road. Removing and reapplying new graphics and installing new vehicle graphics and signage took a few hours, so now the site is all up-to-date and ready for business.
