Britten, Inc. Provides New Look and Feel for Eastern Michigan University Campus - 06/09/2008
Every Light Post Draped with Banners
TRAVERSE CITY, MI, June 9, 2008 – Britten, Inc., a leading provider of large-scale, full-color custom banner printing solutions, has just completed a makeover on the campus of Eastern Michigan University (EMU) in Ypsilanti. Over 350 light pole banners are helping visitors and first-time students find their way around more easily and are providing a whole new look to this college campus.
“The outdoor banners are receiving positive attention and feedback from students, visitors and local residents,” said Derrick Graff, EMU’s director of athletics. “Working with Britten to design and produce these brought our idea for better directional signs to a whole new level.”
The majority of the 21-square foot street light banners identify buildings in easy-to-read white letters, and include large color photographs of the buildings and the EMU logo andagline, “Education First.” Around the Convocation Center, there is one stadium banner dedicated to each of the 21 sports at EMU, with the name of the sport and color photos of student-athletes.
“It was amazing even to us how much these light pole banners changed the complexion of the EMU campus,” said Todd Schmitt, Sports & Events Market Leader, Britten. “Because they chose our patented BannerSaver™ bracket system, their need for constantly replacing banners after wind storms will be reduced.”
Britten’s BannerSaver™ light pole banner brackets enable banners to remain taut until winds reach approximately 70 miles per hour. At higher wind speeds, these custom outdoor banners tip with the wind in proportion to its speed -- saving both banners and street light poles.
