For years now, walls, ceilings and free-standing options have been the go-to place to adopt wayfinding signage. From directing traffic in large Exhibition Halls to sending people the right way to the toilets in Shopping Centres. Wayfinding signage is needed across a large platform of industries, from restaurants to hospitals and even schools! With a growing advancement in media technology and within the print industry, we feel it’s time to utilise a underestimated surface – THE FLOOR!

 

For effective wayfinding, we follow a policy of ‘Critical Information’ which analyses when and what information is required. It also examines how the information is communicated, such as sentence structure and prioritising relevant information. We use this information to typically make anything from finger posts to slat directories.

 

But our range of innovative flooring products leads us to believe we can use graphics to create amazing wayfinding signage beneath your very feet! Whether it be interior or exterior wayfinding, we have the solution!

 

WAYFINDING FLOOR GRAPHICS

 

We have the capabilities to create graphics that can be applied to the floor or become part of the flooring itself. Applications are fit for internal commercial areas such as offices or airports, or external entrance roads and pavements.

 

With the development of new flooring products, it is now possible to extend wayfinding to the floor. Not only does this add to the excitement of new opportunities, but its branding and marketing elements are profound.
