Inside Specialized Signs and Wraps’ new, custom-built facility

Specialized Sign and Wraps has moved into a custom-built facility after doubling its turnover in two years.

The Edinburgh-based sign-making and wrapping business has expanded after it invested in the HP Latex R1000 and the HP Latex 800 printers – the former installed in 2019, and the latter last year.

The Latex 800 was bought to strengthen its production setup, and it has helped the company reach a new milestone of moving into a 15,000 sq. ft, custom-built facility next to Edinburgh Airport, a few months ago.

Managing director, Graham Sim, said: “We realised during the pandemic that the next step for us was a new premises as we already had a great line-up of kit, so we decided to move forward with a custom-built unit.

“These machines have allowed the company to double its turnover over the last two years, and we still have a fair bit of capacity left on them.

“The R1000 was a game changer when we installed it as it was our first flatbed printer. This made it much faster and cheaper to produce rigid panel work.”

Specialized Signs & Wraps offers external and internal signs and window graphics, as well as vehicle wrapping and digitally printed wallpaper.

It also boasts a varied customer base including leading brands such as Rolls Royce, Network Rail, Schuh, Jewson and Radisson.
