The signs made for Bennat Homes are different from others because they were created using alumicorr, which is a material designed to maintain its shape without needing to be mounted on a permanent frame. Laminated graphics which are printed on durable material like Bennat Homes' site signs can last for as many as three to five years.

New World needed a new exterior sign and they contracted Pensacola Sign and Graphics, Inc. to create a sign with their company logo. The dimensional sign that was produced for New World was made with quarter inch custom cut letters and LED lighting. Dimensional letters are also used for applications such as wayfinding and directionals. The dimensional identity sign was designed to create a stronger brand image by incorporating the New World logo above the dimensional lettering.

Vehicles that are wrapped with certified 3M materials last for many years. Pensacola Sign and Graphics, Inc. always wraps vehicle with certified 3M material and was hired to design, print, and install the new wrap on the mobile ATM vehicle. One of the hallmarks of Pensacola Sign is that a wrap, or any other product, is never produced until the design is exactly the way the customer wants it. There were countless design possibilities for the Navy Federal wrap, but this was the design that matched their new corporate image the best. This is a beautiful example of a full vehicle wrap that can easily leave hundreds of thousands of impressions.

The counter was particularly challenging because of its unusual “U” shape along with much wear-and-tear on the surface of the counter top. The sides of the counter were wrapped with the same high quality material used for vehicle wraps, and the top of the counter was specially laminated with a heavy duty floor laminate to increase the longevity of the graphics. The counter wrap was designed to build awareness for Cruzan 9 Spiced Rum, a rum that is made from a blend of nine natural spices. Counter wraps and custom vinyl graphics can be produced to fit any point of purchase application, as is the case the Richies East’s Cruzan Rum counter top.

Pensacola Sign and Graphics, Inc., tasked with creating these signs, made the site sign using corrugated plastic and the banner sign with 13oz vinyl banner material. This is a great example of how two signs can share the same message, while one is permanent and the other is temporary. The site sign was installed on a wood frame and the banner was installed on two posts that were set into the ground. The site sign serves as a permanent sign whereas the banner can easily be removed from the poles and switched out with other new banners in the future.

Braslow, Attorney at Law, commissioned Pensacola Sign and Graphics, Inc. with creating their corporate identity sign. Rather then creating a rectangular sign, this sign was made by custom cutting the wood with a router. The identity sign was also customized by matching paint to the building to insure that the colors complement each other. Each corporate identity sign produced by Pensacola Sign is carefully designed to incorporate logos, pictures, and/or text. With a properly designed identity sign a business, like Braslow's law firm will be able to build public awareness while having a quality sign that will last for many years.

Pensacola Sign and Graphics, Inc. tasked with the job produced the menu board using c-bond and digitally printed graphics. This menu board, like most menus, is divided into sections based on types of food. The menu produced for The Patty Wagon is slightly unique because it puts a special focus on the daily specials that are offered. Having a properly designed menu board is vital to the success of any restaurant and The Patty Wagon menu is an excellent example of what a well designed menu should look like.

This particular enlarged photo was printed on vinyl material and laid on corrugated plastic. The size of a printed or digital photo can significantly be increased as seen by this enlarged photo. The Tarzan photo enlargement produced for Duncan McCall is six feet tall and three feet wide. This is a beautiful example of how an old photo can be enlarged to create new memories.

The "Pete Moore" car graphics, which were produced by Pensacola Sign and Graphics, Inc., were designed to clearly identify the vehicle as a part of the police force while depicting Pete Moore as a sponsor. Vehicle lettering and decals are produced using premium vinyl graphic material which can last up to six years. Adding vinyl graphics to a vehicle can be a creative and inexpensive alternative to having a vehicle fully or partially wrapped. Vehicle graphics like these can be taken off a vehicle fairly easily, if need be, and are an excellent way to show sponsorships, as in the case of the vehicle graphics produced for the Gulf Breeze Police Dept.

With many plays come many advertisements; as seen by these banners which were produced by Pensacola Sign and Graphics, Inc. The banners Pensacola Sign made were designed to work with a banner hanging system. Instead of being made from traditional 13oz. vinyl the signs were made with a 3mil aluminum composite material. The composite was used to increase the banners’ visibility and longevity. The Pensacola Little Theater’s banners are an excellent example of how custom banners can be made to fit with any type of hanging system.

Of course we were willing to help! The Tron room was made using a premium translucent vinyl for lighted panel applications. The graphics were applied to clear acrylic panels which were backlit to create a lighted 3-D Tron atmosphere. The following pictures provide a snapshot of the process we took to create the custom light wall graphics.

Once the graphic images were provided we were able to begin the printing process.



After printing the images we wanted to laminate the vinyl to increase the longevity of the signage.



The vinyl material needed to be applied to a 4x8 foot acrylic panel. Before applying the graphics, it was important to wipe down the acrylic to prevent any bubbles from forming due to dirt and dust.



Once the surface was wiped down we applied the graphics very carefully to the acrylic.



After trimming the excess of the print-out the custom wrapped acrylic wall was ready to be taken to the Tron room and installed.



There were more than a dozen acrylic panels that were created for the Tron room. This is just an example of one panel that was produced by Pensacola Sign.

The entrance to the complex needed to have a directional system that could easily be changed as new tenants come and go. Pensacola Sign and Graphics, Inc. was tasked with creating just such a system. The wayfinding directory was created using varying sizes of aluminum composite and full color laminated and printed graphics. The main entrance directory uses vinyl decals which display tenant name and location. These vinyl decals are inexpensive and extremely easy to apply and remove. As new tenants come in a decal is ordered and applied. As tenants leave the decal is easily removed and replaced. The 9th Ave. Office Plaza certainly takes full advantage of the easily customizable directional system.
