Barcelona, a benchmark in corporate signage
Barcelona is one of the European cities with the highest concentration of corporate headquarters, luxury hotels, shopping centers and coworking spaces. This business density generates a constant demand for professional corporate signage that combines functionality, aesthetics and regulatory compliance.
Corporate signage is not just a functional element: it is an extension of the brand identity. From the exterior sign that identifies the headquarters to the interior signage that guides employees and visitors, each element communicates the company's values and personality.
Types of corporate signage
Corporate signage covers multiple categories:
Exterior signage:
- Luminous and non-luminous signs for facades
- Corporeal letters in steel, aluminum, PVC or methacrylate
- Identification flags and totems
- Multi-tenant building directories
Interior signage:
- Directory of plants and departments
- Office panels and meeting rooms
- Emergency and evacuation signaling
- Decorative vinyls with corporate branding
- Wayfinding (guidance systems)
Digital signage:
- Welcome and information screens
- Interactive digital directories
- Dynamic signage with updateable content
Premium materials for signage in Barcelona
The materials define the quality and durability of the signage:
Methacrylate: Elegant, transparent or colored finish. Ideal for office plates, directories and backlit signs. Excellent value for money.
Aluminum: Light, resistant and with a professional finish. Perfect for outdoor signage, directories and large format plates. Anodized, lacquered or brushed finishes.
Stainless steel: The premium material par excellence. Ideal for corporeal letters, facade signs and elements that require maximum durability and prestige.
PVC and Forex: Economical options for temporary or less aesthetically demanding interior signage. Light and easy to install.
Wood: Increasingly in demand in spaces that seek warmth and sustainability. Combined with methacrylate or aluminum it creates very attractive contrasts.
