Digital print firm Pinders' is helping a Sheffield (UK) charity make a big impact on the fundraising front.
The centre, which is home to 270 stores and 30 restaurants, was flooded by the River Don with water levels rising to 1.8 metres.
But Meadowhall re-opened to the public last week and the new signs were printed in 24 hours to advise visitors where they can safely walk.
The graphics were printed using Pinders' Vutek wide format digital print system.
According to Pinders, the machine allows the company to produce full coloured, finished, weatherproof graphics directly on to virtually any surface up to two metres wide for projects including photographic backdrops, vinyl banners, packaging, display boards, construction industry boards and point of sale material.
David Whiteway, joint managing director at Pinders, said: "I'm really pleased that we've been able to do some good and help out a really high-profile local name like Meadowhall.
The signage is a great example of our ability to produce bespoke, high quality digital prints of any size at very short notice.".
