The UK is to adopt a new system for labelling chemicals this month,  June 2015. So, what is GHS and what opportunities could it present to a digital printer?

Contra Vision^® BACKLITE™ provides spectacular backdrop for HONOUR- an event inspired by the memories of World War One

Contra Vision® BACKLITE™, supplied by Antalis UK provided the spectacular backdrop to HONOUR, an emotionally-charged outdoor event to mark the 100^th anniversary of the First World War.  The Contra Vision backdrop transformed one of the MediaCity buildings at Salford Quays, Manchester into a giant projection screen, becoming the focal point for the event which was inspired by WW1 poets and the memories of the men and women affected by the conflict.

Making an impact is something that comes naturally to global Wall Decoration manufacturers Graham and Brown, a company that has been specialising in the design and production of innovative wallpapers and wall art since it was established in 1946.  But when planning its stand for this years’ Heimtextil exhibition in Frankfurt, Germany, Graham and Brown turned to Antalis to help execute one of the company’s most spectacular and sensational stands at the event.

For the full service cross media production company, the opportunity to start with a totally blank canvas gave the design and branding team at Brilliant Media the chance to put their flair for innovation and creativity in to action. 

“Then came the bombshell,” explained Tony Kenton, Branding and marketing director at Brilliant Media.  “Our client needed the lorry finished, roadworthy and ready to go in just two weeks as they were heading to Spa in Belgium for their next race!”
