Technology

At Viking Signs, we don’t just make signs; we’ve engineered a high-speed, digital ecosystem designed to get you exactly what you need with zero fuss and total reliability. Our Digital Factory is built on a sophisticated technology stack we call S.H.I.E.L.D. (Systematic Hub Intuitively Enabling Limitless Diversity), ensuring that every order is handled with surgical precision.

The Brains: Our Integrated Tech Stack

We’ve moved past the days of "hoping for the best." Our front-to-back integration ensures your order moves seamlessly from your screen to our workshop floor.

  • CRM & eCommerce: These handle the heavy lifting of your enquiries and online orders, making sure your specifications are captured perfectly from the start.
  • ERP and accounting: our backbone provides real-time visibility into stock and order status, so we always know exactly where your product is in the pipeline.
  • Production Management: This is our shop-floor secret weapon. It tracks production jobs in real-time, optimizing efficiency and ensuring that "Next-Day Delivery" isn't just a promise—it's a certainty.

The Brawn: Precision Manufacturing

When it’s time to actually build your sign, we use industry-leading hardware and software that prioritizes quality and speed.

  • Onyx Print Workflow: For advanced colour management and high-speed RIP processing, ensuring our safety signs and your brand colours look exactly as they should, every single time.
  • Digital Print Excellence: Our production floor features heavy hitters from Océ (Canon) and HP, giving us the flexibility to print everything from small labels to massive industrial displays on demand.
  • Zünd Digital Finishing: For the final cut, we use Swiss-engineered Zünd systems. These digital cutters provide incredible precision, allowing us to produce complex shapes and sizes with minimal waste.

Why This Matters for You

Because our factory is fully digital, we can pivot instantly to meet your needs - whether you need one sign or ten thousand.

  • Zero Waste: We only make what you need, which is better for the planet and your budget.
  • Blistering Speed: Our automated systems mean that if you order by our cut-off time, your signs are often out the door the same day.
  • Local Reliability: Everything is made right here in the UK, giving you a level of quality and convenience that offshore competitors simply can't match.

"The sign you need, before you even realise you need it. UK-made, next-day ready. We make signs simple."
