WHAT’S NEW?
Signage and Interior Graphic Refurbishment
at Henley HQ One of the largest investment managers in the UK has a purpose- built headquarters campus based in the historic market town of Henley- upon-Thames. From summer 2016 to summer 2017, the entire complex underwent a major face-lift, with all five of its major buildings receiving full interior and exterior signage and graphic refurbishments.
Architectural signage specialist, Signbox, had already proven its ability to the company in delivering quality internal and external signage and graphics works on a previous project, making it the natural partner for these extensive works. The design team at RAW Brothers and the contractor, Como, had also previously worked with Signbox and, following a rigorous due diligence procedure, concluded Signbox to be the most desirable and commercially viable sign contractor for the project.
Working closely with the designers and contractors, Signbox created bespoke signs and icons and installed them in phases across the complex. In the main lobby, a large halo-illuminated logo was given pride of place, mounted on a split brick wall in the reception. Large format, digitally-printed flex
face displays depicting mountain scenes to reflect the corporate logo were placed in every meeting room across the site, with larger versions of the displays erected in open plan office spaces and breakout areas. Seating booths had mounted, high- resolution photographs of Henley digitally printed onto a textured polyester wrap, with LED lighting highlighting the top edge to give added prominence.
To enhance the décor of populated spaces within the buildings, the restaurant and breakout areas’ fluted, full-height glazed sections received elegant, white fine-fade ‘cloud’ manifestations, while filigree patterns were produced as part of a corporate standard on all other internally glazed areas.
External works saw the creation of digitally printed, cast-vinyl wraps for the existing monoliths displaying new wayfinding information to ensure all parts of the site complex had prominent, up to date directions for employees and visitors.
Signbox Director, Matthew Wilkins said: “Signbox was delighted to have the opportunity to work on such an extensive project. Working closely with the contractor and designer, we were able to deliver a high- quality, integrated sign and graphics package befitting the brand.”

Duplex have made using their latest machine even easier with a new arrival. The Duplex 380B Turbo has been developed from the remarkably successful Duplex range of floor cleaning machines.
Duplex development engineers were tasked with the design of a battery-powered 380mm wide unit with just one brief: make sure it has the same cleaning capability as the rest of the range but with at least one added innovation, and they succeeded! From wall to wall and into the tightest corners the Duplex 380B Turbo is ideal for daily maintenance or deep cleaning.
Duplex steam machines are distinctive in that they are battery operated, sweep and scrub all hard floors, dry with two different systems and clean and dry carpets. The 380B not only benefits from the mechanical pick up utilised by the existing Duplex machines, it also incorporates an eco-friendly vacuum. On hard floors the combination of twin- brush mechanical pick up, vacuum and twin squeegees ensure that surfaces are left perfectly dry. The squeegee can be easily lifted and the vacuum turned off when cleaning carpets.
