The Solution

Claire’s background in visual merchandising, creative design and window design meant she was able to offer expert advice on the most appropriate printable materials for the pop-up store.

After meeting with Design Best to fully understand what they were looking to achieve, Claire specified several printable rigid and flexible substrates from the Antalis Visual Communications range of products to produce the instore POS, leaflets and window graphics:

 

  • Instore branding and product boards – Xanita
  • A-frames – Smart-X
  • Window graphics – Drytac Viziprint Impress
  • Invitations and flyers – Edixion Offset paper

 

The Result

Design Best were delighted with the result, commenting, “Inevitably, working on a short and intensive event is hard work and you often wonder if it will ever come together, but somehow it always does. We opened on time with a great space, and our customers loved the experience.

“Working with Antalis was seamless. Claire recommended the right products for the job, and received beautiful materials that were exactly what we needed. Everything arrived on time and to budget, and was incredibly easy to install. The instore POS really helped our customers’ retail experience through providing clear pricing, product information and branding. Our window and external signage was show-stopping and our shop could not be missed! On top of this, everything was so simple to take down and recycle, re-use or dispose of.”
