Client: Albert Dock Company / Gower Street Estates

Project: Re-brand the Albert Dock in Liverpool, a world heritage site and leading UK attraction.

Brief: IS Group were commissioned as Principal Contractor to manufacture and install boundary signage and a new way finding scheme.

Solution: IS Group collaborated closely with the leading way finding and graphic design consultancy Holmes Wood, to ensure their designs for the site were manufactured to superior standards for this high profile environment.

The scheme comprised of six, nine metre boundary signs, twelve promotional banner poles for varying events, five welcome signs and ten bespoke double and four sided directional monoliths with poster cases and map cases. All signage was internally illuminated with a low level LED system.

As Principal Contractor IS Group also acted as CDM co-ordinator, maintaining the Health and Safety file with method statements and risk assessments. Our dedicated on site project management team supervised other contractors to ensure a successful completion of the scheme.

Result: A new outstanding signage scheme incorporating The Albert Dock's new brand, the project was completed on time and within budget.

Joe Edge, Director of The Albert Dock Company:

"The Albert Dock can be a complex place to work due to its Grade 1 listed heritage status and its constant operation as the most visited tourist attraction in Liverpool.

Your team has worked tirelessly within these restraints to ensure that the signage around the Dock has been delivered on time and with minimum effort.

I would not hesitate in recommending you and your team to any other client and may I wish you every success for the future."

Alexandra Wood, Director, Holmes-Wood:

"Thank you for all your hard work manufacturing and installing the Albert Dock Sign Scheme. As you know, it was an incredibly important project for all involved and the whole of your team really rose to the challenge.

It was great for Holmes Wood to work with a company that accepted that only the highest standards would be acceptable. We are all very pleased with the outcome."
