Council & Government Projects

Cover Styl certified installer badge

Public sector signage has to meet a brief, a budget, accessibility standards and a procurement process, often all at once. You need a supplier who knows the paperwork as well as the product.

Council signage and government projects

We make and install signage for councils, government buildings and public facilities: kindergartens, libraries, community centres, parks, reserves, courts and health sites. We quote to your specification, build to the accessibility and building standards public signage has to meet, and install around sites that stay open to the public.

What we do

Building identification and facility signage

Building names, entry signs and facility signs for community centres, kindergartens, libraries and sporting facilities.

Wayfinding and directories

Directories, directional signs and room signs for public buildings. See wayfinding signage.

Accessible signage

Tactile and Braille signs for amenities, lifts and key rooms.

Park and reserve signage

Entry signs, dog park signs, regulatory signs and painted ground markings for parks and reserves.

Interpretive signage

Heritage, history and nature trail signs that tell the story of a place, from a single panel to a full trail, made to last outdoors.

Painted murals and community art

Ground murals, road art and painted walls for public spaces. See signwriting and murals.

Fleet and vehicle graphics

Council vehicles, from animal management vans to garbage trucks. See vehicle signage.

Ongoing supply

Repeat and scheduled orders, matched to your existing sign standards.
