The work included interior and exterior signs, as well as digitally produced graphics. The jobs were printed on the company's recently installed 3.2m-wide EFI Vutek GS3200 and Seiko I Infotech ColourPainter V-64s, using more than 400sqm of vinyl and overlaminate substrates, plus 100sqm of aluminium.

Jeremy Booker, brand design manager for National Express, said: "This is the first time we've worked with Andesign and we were very impressed with the attention to detail. The company pulled out all the stops to deliver striking signs that will welcome millions of National Express customers to Birmingham every year."

The company won the work after a competitive tender, in which the environment was a key consideration.

Andesign director Andy Williams said: "No harsh solvents were present in any of the displays. For lighting, low-cost, long-life LED illumination was used throughout. We also needed to comply with legislation producing tactile and Braille signs in public areas, yet keep within the design remit of the project."

Andesign worked with Wayfinding Consultants on the signage overhaul, which was installed by the printer's in-house team at the coach station as part of a £15m refurbishment.

Andesign employs 15 staff, with an annual turnover of £1.5m.
