TICKER SIGN
To accent a store design or to convey information
Ticker signs are electronic noticeboards that display scrolling
textual information. In the past, these were often used as
signboards, but now they are used more for large displays and
advertising pillars, as well as in stores and showrooms for
displays and interior enhancement. An advantage of ticker
signs is that they can be used not just for decoration, but also
for conveying information.* There are many photos we cannot show here for legal reasons, so please feel free to contact us for further details.
