The Brief
POUND STORE RETAIL NATIONAL
High street retailer Pound Store wanted to give their identity a facelift. So they approached us to set the wheels in motion, both to create the new branding for all of their stores and to apply it. We were tasked to produce internally illuminated aluminium signage, as well as reverse-applied frosted logos and lettering for shop windows and doors. Double-sided foamex hanging signs were required for inside the stores, with projecting signage to the exterior.
Our Response
The client wanted a fast turn-around, so our fitting teams wasted no time in completing a comprehensive site survey, which included taking accurate measurements and photographs. With plenty of reference to hand, the design team could provide visuals for client approval and final artwork. The print and fabrication teams could then get to work bringing the concepts to life and producing
a high-quality finished product. From the creation of the initial brand guidelines to final sign off took no more than 10 days.
Construction
Technical specification included:
• Aperture-cut 1050-grade aluminium fabricated returns using brakepress powder-coated RAL 5002
• Apertures backed with 3mm LED-grade opal 050
• 5-year guaranteed LED modules
• 12v converter transformers illuminating all apertures
Result
To date, five sites have been completed within a four-week rollout. We’re currently awaiting feedback from specially commissioned research groups before implementing a rollout for 2019.

The Brief
BARGAIN BUYS RETAIL NATIONAL
We were asked to create a new brand for a high street retailer, and after hours of brainstorming we came up with what is now the Bargain Buys brand. Once the brand had been established we were given three months to survey over 50 sites, then design, proof, manufacture and install signage for them all.
THE Response
As store opening dates had already been set, we needed to meet every single deadline in order to be successful. Thankfully, our highly efficient procedures ensured that everything ran smoothly with no hiccups along the way.
Construction
To date we have we have completed 65 sites for Bargain Buys using two different types of sign, either a flex box or aperture-cut pans.
Flex Box:
• 6m lengths of extruded aluminium
• Lengths power coated brand guidelines
• Painted lengths fixes together using corner brackets, back support, brace sections backed off with stucco aluminium sheet
• 5yr guarantee module LED’s
Aperture cut pans:
• 10 50 grade aluminium
• Aperture cut on CNC router
• Fabricated using 3m break press, corners welded using MIG on pulse setting
• Panels powered coated to corporate brand guidelines colour with speciality finish
Result
As a result of completing so many sites nationally we have been able to build a strong working relationship with our client who has since asked us to produce all their print work, including posters and flyers.

Product Bulletin
Description
3MTM ScotchcalTM General Purpose Film Series 50 are opaque, stabilised, calendered vinyl films offering an affordable solution for a wide range of signing and marking applications which do not require extended exterior performance life. The typical uses are exterior/interior markings requiring a medium term durability such as vehicle markings, signs, window and display graphics. These films are intended for applications to flat surfaces without rivets.
Limitations of End Uses
The following uses and applications are specifically NOT warranted.
Application to corrugated surfaces
Application to compound curved surfaces (A compound curve is one in which the film is stretched in two directions over a sharp angle.)
Exposure to petroleum products or solvents
Graphics for automotive Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEM): 3M Commercial Graphics Division products are not tested against automotive manufacturers’ specifications.

Characteristics
Cutting
Based on the differences in electronically controlled cutting equipment and font characteristics, users should determine their own cutting and weeding capability.
These factors can affect cutting quality and ability:
Sharpness of the knife blade. Dull blades create a serrated look to the cut edge of the film.
Weight on the knife blade. The ideal weight slightly scores the liner. Too little weight does not cut completely through the film and the adhesive. Excessive weight cuts the liner. It also causes the blade to drag, accelerating wear and eventually creating a serrated cut edge on the film.
Premasking and Prespacing
The 3M Prespacing or Prespacing Tape you use depends on the type of graphic produced and the overprint clear system. For graphics that have large amounts of exposed liner, use a prespacing application tape. If there is very little exposed liner, use a premasking application tape.
Application
Note: Use the dry application method when possible.
1. Follow the dry application methods in Instruction Bulletin 5.5, Release C-EU, Effective April 2000 or later.
2. Be sure that the film is applied at temperatures 8°C.
Maintenance and Cleaning
If pressure washing is used, do not wash at a distance less than 30 cm and point the nozzle perpendicular to the body of the vehicle. Do not wash with a pressure higher than 80 bar.
CAUTION
When using any equipment, always follow the manufacturers’ instructions for safe operation.

These are for use when the metal is inspected for product quality, which determines it can be lasered, cnc cut, bent and will withstand the heat of the powder coating ovens. Every single piece of aluminium or steel has to be inspected before it can be imported into the country to be sold by our suppliers.
Potentially there could be material on the black market which is inferior and this could damage our machinery.

Digital Management Systems Single & Multiscreen
Advertising
At JMF Group we always like to keep our clients abreast of any innovative new developments to ensure we can offer them the very latest in signage solutions. Which is why we’d like to introduce our single and multi-screen digital management system.
Our digital screens can display over individual or multiple units and
have the availability to exhibit single graphics or use a multi-screen set-up to join numerous screens together, thereby displaying over a larger spread. And when a client utilises our digital screens they are assigned a dedicated account handler who manages everything from queries to asset control and scheduling.
The truth of the matter is, having digital screens offers you and your business a level of freedom and versatility which print often can’t.
For example, with JMF’s personalised online scheduling platform you can view your playback schedule, contact your account handler and upload new assets, all at the touch of a button. What’s more, our online scheduling platform is divided into time slots (which are dependent on your chosen price plan).
This platform provides a column for each day of the week, which is colour coded in your playlist into which digital display assets are grouped.

Our online platform eliminates the need for painfully long email threads and unnecessary meetings.
All communication and files are centralised in one place, so you never miss any key information.
The example is a simple schematic of JMF’s print production workflow, following the job sheet/URN through the production process, and how this correlates with the platform’s status bar on active jobs.

We needed a whole shopping list of stuff and the guys from JMF Group delivered everything we wanted and more. Their professionalism is superb and the quality of the finished signs is excellent.
