Project: St David's Shopping Centre

Client: Alfred Bagnall & Sons (South Wales)
Value: Confidential

Laser Cutting Services has recently undertaken and completed a large commercial stencilling project in conjunction with Alfred Bagnall & Sons for St David's Shopping Centre. The painting project required many very large signage and car park stencils of different sizes that were text, logos or numbers. The interior signage stencils were applied with spray or roller onto a pre-painted concrete wall surface. As some signage stencils were particularly large, they were made in sections and had registration points to align them when painting. Many of the stencils had to be specifically scaled for each area, some of which were several metres long. Angie Nock from Bagnall's contacted us with the task of laser cutting a wide range of large signage and carpark stencils for the development of St David's Shopping Centre, which is now one of the principal shopping centres in the city centre of Cardiff, capital of Wales. St David's is also now the eleventh largest shopping centre in the United Kingdom.

Our Laser Cut Hopscotch Stencils
cover the floor of O2 Arena, London, UK!!

Laser Cutting Services were approached by Events Management Company, Chillisauce, to produce Hopscotch Stencils for their client BUPA, as part of their *Global Challenge 2011 campaign.

The O2 floor was covered with our stencils to allow 358 people, including BUPA staff and children from Tower Hamlets schools to take part in the Guinness Book of World Records attempt; “largest group of Simultaneous Hopscotchers.”

We produced the hopscotch grid stencils from 350 micron Polyester Film and as the finished stencil was over 3m high, we had to divide the design into sections. We planned each section to be flush fitted to allow them to be “butted up”, thereby easing alignment and registration for the client.

We are delighted to add that the Guinness World Record Attempt was successful; the Bupa group was declared World Record Holders on 06 June 2011.

*Bupa's Global Challenge 2011 campaign aims to get more than 35,000 people around the world moving to reduce the risk of serious illness.

Stencils for the Whisky Industry

BRUICHLADDICH approached Laser Cutting Services to produce an extra large stencil for their distillery wall signage. Registration points were provided on each section of stencil film to make paint application easily manageable with the final finished stencil measuring over 12 metres long.

Stencilled Bluefin Tuna at National Gallery of Scotland

Laser Cutting Services were approached by Jeremy of Jeremy Hunt Design, London to produce a complex stencil to replicate scales on a life-size model BLUEFIN TUNA installation. The completed model, a life-size adult 9ft long, is to be exhibited in The National Museum of Scotland, in their New Gallery exhibit opening on 29 July 2011.

The 125 film proved best to airbrush the silver colour through the mask as we had to select a stencil material that would not absorb the paint and was re-useable. The thin polyester film allowed Jeremy to spray a low tack adhesive onto the back to hold the stencil in place while airbrushing his painting. The scale pattern was laser cut in a large sheet that could then be rolled on the surface so that it enabled enable Jeremy to reproduce the scales over a larger area. The paint used was a highly reflective iridescent acrylic silver paint which was sprayed over the stencil mask. When the stencil was removed this left the silver scales to superb effect.

Jeremy is delighted with the finished installation of his BLUEFIN TUNA has given us this testimonial endorsing his apprecation of Laser Cutting Services approach to this challenge, technical expertise and professional customer service.
