In healthcare, signage is part of patient care. People arriving at a hospital or clinic are often anxious, unwell or in a hurry, so the way they find reception, a ward or a clinic has to be clear, calm and accessible to everyone.
We design, make and install signage for NHS trusts, hospitals, clinics and care providers from our workshop in Greater Manchester, across the UK.
What we provide for healthcare
- Wayfinding schemes, directories and department signs
- Tactile and Braille signage and accessible toilet signs
- Door, room and ward signs and interior signage
- Patient information graphics and wall graphics
- External building signs, totems and car park signage
- Hoardings and graphics during refurbishment works
Working to NHS standards
We have coordinated the production and installation of signage across NHS Manchester University Foundation Trust sites, meeting the NHS’s strict standards while improving navigation and branding across each site.
Accessible for every patient
We design to the Equality Act 2010, BS 8300 and Approved Document M, with strong visual contrast, consistent mounting heights, tactile lettering and Grade 2 Braille, and we can audit existing buildings and phase improvements around budgets.
Working safely in live buildings
Healthcare buildings never really close. We plan work around patients and staff, installing out of hours where needed, with RAMS agreed in advance and our ISO 45001 certified health and safety system behind every job.
