Interpretation Panels
We create custom interpretation panels, including our Vault collection, which act as educational guides in nature reserves, parks, museums and heritage sites. Vault panels, which are available in various materials and styles, feature high-quality print, text, and illustration with outdoor durability.
Each sign is made with bonded lamination and coated with a high-impact, anti-reflective sheet. Using sustainable print methods, these interpretation panels resist harsh climates, graffiti, UV, water, frost and flame. Vault comes with a 10-year warranty against fading, bubbling and warping.
We also offer Vault LITE, a streamlined panel ideal for wall or rail mounting, and ECO Vault, made with eco-materials. Our interpretation signage is renowned for its durability and compliance with accessibility standards and ISO14001.

Marine-grade steel signs
Protect your interpretation signage with robust, marine-grade steel ideal for coastal environments. This hard-wearing material is resistant to the harshest climates and is custom-made with added colour or powder coat finish.
Stainless steel signs
Our stainless steel interpretation panels are highly customisable and sturdy. They are set into concrete or bolted into a fixing plate in hard-standing environments. You can choose a black or white powder coating or select from over 20 RAL colours for added effect.
Timber signs
Timber is a robust and reliable material that perfectly complements outdoor environments. Our timber interpretation panels are available in tanalised softwood and iroko, all of which come in a colour of your choosing. Metal fixings, brackets and fastenings are supplied for added security.
Oak signs
Our green oak interpretation boards are a durable timber alternative commonly used in areas of natural beauty. They are available in black and white or any RAL powder coating. Our oak signs can include metal or concrete fixings, depending on their fixture.
Vault is a renowned external signage solution designed to withstand adverse weather conditions and keep your visitors engaged. Due to its versatility, our interpretation panels blend seamlessly even in indoor environments, including museums, visitor attractions, and sports venues.

Wall panels
Save space along pathways and walking routes with wall interpretation panels. We mount or fix these panels on a wall top, allowing tourists to take in information as they view a landscape or landmark. This option works as an accessible outdoor lectern sign, including various viewing angles depending on wall height. Available in a RAL powder coating of your choosing.
Rail signage
Integrate our stainless steel rail signage to any existing metalwork or infrastructure. Our rail-mounted outdoor lectern signs are fixed at various angles to accommodate different accessibility levels. This is the least invasive fixing, avoiding harm to historical structures and sites. You can choose a RAL colour or black or white powder coat finish.
Tactile panels
Use audio and tactile panels to create an engaging visitor experience. These interactive signs can include audio posts, wind-up solar-powered units, RNIB-certified raised information and brass rubbings. Our tactile panels use impactful illustrations and tactile elements to increase visitor engagement among younger audiences.
Slotted panels
Attract and educate visitors with an attractive slotted interpretation panel. Our free-standing information posts include a removable graphic panel that allows you to update and change displayed information as required. We can fix each post into concrete or our sturdy fixing plate supported by chemical bolts. Finishes include green oak, tanalised softwood and iroko in a selected RAL stain.
