We were thrust into the spotlight during a weekend of iconic sporting events in May.

We had our work aired across the globe when we were called on to produce graphics, logos, banners and carpets for DACIA Magic Weekend, William Hill Scottish FA Cup Final, The Emirates FA Cup Final and the FA International Friendly, England V Turkey.

Over the course of the weekend work we produced and installed was seen by hundreds of millions of TV viewers, across the globe.

Based at Riverside Business Park in Rawtenstall, HD Signs & Display is part of the Linemark Group of companies, which also includes N-Virol and Ultra Membranes. The Linemark Group of companies manufacture world-leading line marking, damp proofing treatments and anti-condensation products, which are sold through a network of distributors to customers around the world.

For the DACIA Magic Weekend, we installed 3D painted pitch logos for DACIA and First Utility at St James’ Park in Newcastle. The work, which was carried out through Infield 3D Advertising with stencils produced by our team and paints by Linemark, was used in all six games and shown on Sky Sports.

While on the Saturday, the 3D PVC mesh banners Infield 3D produced and delivered for both ends of Hampden Park were shown on Sky Sports 1, during the William Hill Scottish FA Cup Final. In addition, two large printed carpets that we manufactured for Emirates were aired live on BT Sport and BBC One during the FA Cup Final.

And to top off the weekend, we also produced and installed a large 10 square metre printed pitch side mat for the FA International Friendly between England and Turkey at the Etihad Stadium in Manchester, which was aired on ITV.

David Hickey, our Business Development Manager said: “We are absolutely delighted to have been called on to produce and install work for a number of iconic sporting events, which were seen by hundreds of millions of viewers across the globe. It was our very own magic weekend!
