QR Codes are found everywhere from business cards to enormous signs adorning buildings but what exactly are they, and more importantly, what can they do for you.

A QR code is a type of matrix barcode first designed for the automotive industry. The code consists of black modules arranged in a square pattern on a white background and the information encoded can be made up of any kind of data.
QR codes have proven to be very useful in marketing and convenience related applications that is more suitable for smartphone users. In the recent months, we have seen QR codes show up on marketing materials such as Estate Agent For Sale boards, promotional posters for various products, billboards, flyers, among other things. These have also been seen on newspaper ads, business cards, artwork, and other everyday things.

There is an audience for QR codes that is just waiting to be tapped!

We can create a QR Code for you and embed these to your promotional materials, For Sale & To Let Boards, Correx Slips, Business cards, and Merchandise.
Adding a QR code to your advertisement means that literally limitless information can be included in your advertisement.

More and more people are getting on the Web through their mobiles so why not take advantage of this remarkable and inexpensive piece of technology.

Refurbishment of Flat Bed UV Printing department now complete

Humphreys Signs — Sun, 14 Aug 2011 16:45:48 +0000

Humphreys Signs is pleased to announce that the refurbishment of our UV Printing department is now complete and we are back to running at full capacity. This investment of cutting edge technology illustrates not only our commitment to innovation, but our dedication to the protection of the environment. Added to that is our healthy desire to provide an ever improving service for all our customers.

What is UV Printing?

Flat Bed – UV Printing is the Greener choice for creating digital signage printed directly onto to a host of substrates without the need for harmful materials such as solvent based inks, thinners, and emulsions.

Now for the Science bit:

Unlike water-based and solvent-based inks, there is no evaporative component to UV inks but when exposed to sufficient UV-wavelength energy, a catalytic reaction occurs that causes the ink molecules to bind together. This binding is referred to technically as “cross linking” or more commonly as “curing”.

Using the latest UV printing technology we can produce a huge range of Signs, and advertising products at exceptional quality. Our rigid graphics include Foam Board, Aluminium Composite, and Correx. We print onto these using our large flatbed printer which makes light work of almost any rigid material.
