AR Signs Ltd

No matter the van, it seems like we’ve wrapped it this month! From the ever-reliable FordTransit to the workhorse Mercedes-Benz Sprinter, the compact and capable VauxhallVivaro to the always-popular Volkswagen Transporter…

Sometimes you just have to take a step back and take stock of what you’ve achieved over the last few months. We’re starting to spot our work alongside some serious brands. The kind of brands you don’t need to explain, regionally, nationally and internationally recognised!

A huge congratulations to the @PanthersIHC, who last night secured an amazing overtime victory over the Coventry Blaze to lift the 2026 Challenge Cup. As a proud sponsor it was fantastic to witness an incredible achievement, their third trophy on home ice in the past 11 months!

It’s Flashback Friday as we take a ‘then & now’ look at one of our longest standing customers, MRS. It was 26yrs ago when we first put vinyl to metal & we’re still supporting them to this day. A huge thank you to MRS for the ongoing custom - it’s have you keep coming back!

Even the relentless rain doesn’t stop our team. 🌧️ This year has been one of those where the waterproofs barely get a chance to dry out. Long days, soaked boots and plenty of “it’ll ease off in a minute” moments that never quite happen.

A big thank you to Balance Health Nottingham for giving us the opportunity to stretch our signage talents across both interior and exterior branding ahead of their exciting opening on 2nd March. Wishing the Balance Health team every success for the grand opening 👏

We know it’s a big job when the man-platform comes out! Not one for those with vertigo, our regular replacement of advertising graphics at the @nottinghamarena requires some serious kit to get these banners replaced. Fortunately we picked a rare dry and calm day!

Continuing where we left off in 2025… The @ClawsonFarms_ rebrand is taking shape — inside and out. Vehicles Graphics ✅ External Signage ✅ and now… Internal signage✅ This job went so well a higher being from above rewarded us with our very own halo…

Some brands whisper Some shout The best ones pop It’s the details that make the difference — colour that hits just right, finishes that catch the light, and design that turns “nice” into noticeable. Because great branding isn’t about being loud… It’s about being unmissable.

We’re suckers for a bit of road art… Some of our favourite vehicle graphics are the ones you notice after a 2nd look, a fine pinstripe along a panel or a muted logo that catches the light. Because good design doesn’t need to shout — it just needs to be right. 🚗✨

🥶 Sharp lines. Big stage. Cold Hands 🏒 This week, the @IIHFHockey Continental Cup Final hits the ice at the @nottinghamarena — and so did we. Best of luck to all teams competing (mainly the The @PanthersIHC 😉) — we’ll be cheering on from a warmer spot. ❄️🏒

🎉 It’s National Sticker Day 🎉 (Yes… this is basically our Christmas.) At AR Signs, we’ll be celebrating in the only appropriate way: ✔ Admiring good adhesion ✔ Judging bad application ✔ Pretending we don’t enjoy peeling the backing paper just a bit too much

As much as some cricket fans may want to forget Down Under, there’s nothing like a few of our new banners for @TrentBridge to get our minds looking forward to warmer times… Only a few months to go before we can once again enjoy a summer listening to leather on willow.. 🥶❄️☃️

We’re back in business this week after a lovely festive break... Fortunately, one of the first jobs of the year was avoiding the Arctic weather with this installation in the warm and cosy environment of this office refurb for @blueprint.interiors.

🎄 That’s (almost) a wrap for 2025 🎄 We’ll be closing for Christmas from Midday, Tuesday 23rd December, and reopening on Monday 5th. If anything crops up while we’re away, feel free to send us a message. Wishing everyone a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year 🎅✨

We’ve been flat out building and installing signage across a mix of projects, from early design ideas through to finished signs going up on site. Plenty of measuring twice, lifting carefully, and standing back at the end to say “yeah, that looks perfect”.

❄️⛄It most definitely is beginning to look A LOT like Christmas❄️⛄ Our ever-busy elves have been working tirelessly over at the @nottinghamarena getting them, and all their many guests, ready for the festive period. We can taste the Christmas hospitality from here…

We’ve been working on some seriously big graphics this week, and it’s exactly the kind of project we love. It’s always rewarding to create signage that makes an immediate impact — thanks to the @HSSP_Architects team and @Blueprint_Int for trusting us with the upgrade!

Here’s a little AR Signs wrap-up to end the week… As the Social Media World isn’t ready for the posting of every job we thought we’d create a little montage of last month’s #vehiclewrap projects. Car, van, lorry, excavator - we’ve done it all in the last few weeks.

✨ Transforming Learning Spaces! ✨ We loved creating the custom wall vinyl for the newly reimagined library at Archway Learning Trust school Bluecoat Primary, helping to bring their "reading-for-pleasure paradise" to life!
