Sketch. Visualise. Manufacture. Install.
Six steps, zero hand-wringing. This is how a brief becomes a brand presence - and why our projects land on time.
Brief & Site Audit
Every good outcome starts with a straight conversation. We take your brief - however rough - visit or assess the site, measure, photograph and flag anything that affects cost or compliance before a cent is quoted.
- Site visits & measurement
- Compliance & landlord requirements
- Scope definition
- Budget alignment
Concept & Design
Our studio interprets your CI into signage and branding that works at real-world scale. You get proper visuals - 3D renders and in-situ mock-ups - not guesswork, so approval is based on what will actually be built.
- Design development
- 3D renders & in-situ mock-ups
- Material & finish specification
- Technical drawings
Prototype & Approval
Where it matters, on fabricated lettering and new materials, we produce samples and pre-production prototypes. You sign off on the real thing, and production carries no surprises.
- White samples
- Pre-production units
- Colour matching & proofs
- Final sign-off pack
Manufacture
Production runs on the Colab Group manufacturing floor: fabrication, CNC and laser cutting, large-format print, finishing and assembly - with quality control at every gate and photos shared as your job progresses.
- In-house fabrication & print
- CNC & laser cutting
- Powder coating & finishing
- Stage-gate QC
Install & Rollout
Trained installation teams handle single sites and multi-store national programmes - working at height, after hours or in live retail environments, with the paperwork and safety files to match.
- Professional installation teams
- National rollout coordination
- After-hours & live-store installs
- Safety files & compliance
Maintain & Support
A brand is only as good as its worst-looking sign. We offer maintenance, repairs, re-lamping and refresh programmes that keep your estate sharp - plus rapid response when something gets damaged.
- Maintenance programmes
- Repairs & re-lamping
- Campaign refreshes
- Rapid-response call-outs
Step zero
Send the brief.
A photo of the site and two sentences is enough to start. We'll take it from there.
