MetroSigns is well underway with the construction of a new head office and manufacturing facility in Epping, Victoria, underlining its commitment to the Australian industry.

The factory, which will bring all MetroSigns operations under the one roof for the first time, is located close to Melbourne’s international airport and right next to the Hume Freeway – opposite the new wholesale fruit & vegetable market which is due to be built in 2008. This makes transport and travel easy; in fact, it’s ‘traffic light free’ from Epping to Geelong and Frankston!

Due for completion in May 2007, the facility will provide 1500m2 of factory space, plus some 420m2 of office area, providing a comfortable and professional home for our staff, and a more efficient workflow, faster turnarounds and significant economies to our manufacturing operation.
The new factory will house the very latest production facilities and equipment for all modern signmaking techniques, including extrusion and moulding systems, pylon and monolith construction; metal welding; steel, aluminum and plastic fabrication; vacuum forming; computer-controlled routing; LED’s, illumination and neon bending technology; large-format digital printing (indoor and outdoor); spray painting, and vinyl cutting.

It also features an overhead gantry to facilitate the movement of large or heavy components and materials, ensuring MetroSigns continues to comply with the most stringent OH&S regulations and guidelines.

In fact, the entire facility has been built to international QAS quality assurance standards, to ensure MetroSigns is well placed to continue to manufacture for export markets, as well as our local Australian clientele.

The new facility will ensure MetroSigns can cater for all our current and projected future requirements, while the spacious 4570m2 site allows plenty of room for expansion as required in future.
