Excellence in photograph printing has been the core value of CEWE Ltd for more than 50 years.

Supplying award-winning products to retail partners in 24 European countries, CEWE Ltd is Europe’s number one photo company.

With 3,300 employees, today CEWE print enough photos each year to stretch around the world almost 10 times. 

In February this year, CEWE contacted Hardy Signs Ltd to discuss digital signage options for their UK headquarters. Based in Warwick near Royal Leamington Spa, is one of 11 states of the art production facility houses across Europe – delivering millions of photo products each year. A requirement to communicate with visitors and staff at the facility had been identified whereby a solution reflecting the organisation’s quality image would be essential.

Working from a given brief, the digital signage team at Hardy Signs presented a full high-definition LCD digital display which would be mounted to a custom fabricated vertical bracket to greet those arriving in the main reception. At 50 inch and with seem-less, tablet-like aesthetics – the display also boasts a tempered glass surface for added protection in this busy environment. In addition, Hardy Signs employed a dedicated cloud-based control system allowing CEWE to operate the display remotely from any location with internet access.

“Images, video and live information such as weather and social media feeds can be easily utilised with this user-friendly system” explained Hardy Signs Digital Signage Technician Ben White. “The impressive display has WiFi capability and is connected directly to the internal network at CEWE – giving full flexibility in updating and scheduling the content”.

Pargat Singh, Maintenance Manager at CEWE Photoworld added: “We’re delighted with the finished display that welcomes visitors to our facility”. “Hardy Signs have been very helpful right from initial contact and have given us a solution that fits the brief perfectly. The flexibility of the control system is ideal – as well as the stylish look of the display itself – it really makes a huge impact.”

“Hardy Signs offer digital signage solutions for every application and to a wide variety of business sectors across the UK” concluded Nik Hardy, Managing Director. “Our team will design and build the project, give a full installation service, provide training and technical support as well as maintenance cover for a complete piece of mind… it really is the full package.”
