Digital Media Screens for

Shopping Centres

A Complete Digital Signage Solution

Project Overview

IS Group provides end-to-end digital signage solutions for shopping centres, helping asset managers modernise their environments, unlock new advertising opportunities and improve customer communication through high-quality digital screens.

A recent example of this approach is the supply and installation of a large-format internal LED media wall at Eastgate Square, Chester, where IS Group worked closely with centre management to deliver a future-proof digital advertising solution as part of a wider signage and branding upgrade.

Supporting Shopping Centres Through Digital Transformation

Shopping centres are increasingly transitioning away from static posters and short-life printed campaigns in favour of flexible digital advertising platforms. IS Group supports this transition by offering a fully managed digital signage service, from initial advice and specification through to long-term support.

Our experience across retail, leisure and public environments allows us to tailor solutions ranging from:

  • Large LED media walls for feature locations
  • Wall-mounted advertising screens
  • Interactive touchscreens and directories
  • Digital wayfinding and information displays

Each solution is specified to suit the location, audience, content requirements and budget of the centre.

Eastgate Square Chester - Digital Media Wall Installation

As part of the Eastgate Square refresh, IS Group was appointed to supply and install a P2.5 LED media wall, providing a high-impact internal advertising platform capable of supporting multiple campaigns throughout the year.

Screen Specification:

  • LED pixel pitch: P2.5
  • Overall size: 3.25m x 4.75m
  • Application: Internal advertising and promotions
  • Media player: Integrated Android player
  • Software: User-friendly content management system

The screen was designed to deliver high brightness, sharp image quality and excellent viewing angles within a retail environment.

Installation & Technical Delivery

Installation was carefully planned and carried out over several night shifts to avoid disruption to trading hours.

IS Group worked closely with the centre management team to:

  • Confirm final positioning and structural arrangements
  • Coordinate electrical requirements in advance
  • Manage access and safety during out-of-hours works

All installation works, electrical connections, commissioning and handover were completed by IS Group’s qualified installation team, ensuring accountability throughout the process.

Once installed, the screen was fully tested and signed off, with the client receiving onsite guidance and documentation to allow immediate use.

Hardware, Software & Content Control

A key requirement for Eastgate Square was the ability for the centre team to manage their own content without reliance on external agencies.

IS Group supplied the screen complete with:

  • Integrated Android media player
  • Intuitive content management software
  • Remote upload and scheduling capability

This allows centre staff to update advertising, promotions and messages quickly and independently, whether promoting retailers, events or seasonal campaigns.

Ongoing Support & Maintenance

IS Group understands that digital screens are a long-term investment. To protect this investment, we offer a range of ongoing support and maintenance packages, including:

  • Over-the-phone technical support
  • Software troubleshooting and guidance
  • Planned maintenance visits
  • Advice on content performance and screen optimisation

This ensures screens remain reliable, up-to-date and fully operational, even as technology and content demands evolve.

IS Group acts as a single point of contact for shopping centres considering digital upgrades, offering:

  • Consultation and feasibility advice
  • Supply of screens, mounts and infrastructure
  • Software solutions for content control
