About Us

Established in 1990 by a signmaker, Sign Update is the longest running UK trade magazine about signmaking, which also includes wide format digital printing, engraving etc.

Published 6 times a year, we cover various aspects of sign related news, based on new products, services, company profiles and design tutorials etc.

Family run: like all family run businesses we take just that little more care and time dealing with our client's requests and needs. With over eighty years in the sign industry, this gives us a good insight into the trends and developments in the industry.
