Large format & signage in Klerksdorp: local notes
Transport and logistics firms along the N12 order truck and trailer branding, so ask whether cast or calendered vinyl suits the job and how long it should last. Mines around Stilfontein and Orkney need SANS 1186 safety signs. Shops in the CBD and near Matlosana Mall want fascias, light boxes and window vinyl, and agricultural shows use pull-up banners, flags and gazebos. Use mesh banners on open sites where wind picks up.
Printing in Klerksdorp
Klerksdorp is the business centre of the Matlosana area, a gold mining district that also serves a huge maize and cattle farming region. The mines around Stilfontein and Orkney still buy safety signs, permit books and workwear, but farming co-operatives, agricultural shows, auctions and the many contractors and transport firms on the N12 are now just as important to print shops. Jouberton, Alabama and Kanana bring funerals, church conferences, stokvel parties and soccer club orders. Print shops, sign makers and embroiderers cluster in the CBD, along the main roads into town and in the industrial areas. Couriers from Johannesburg usually arrive overnight. The summer sun is harsh and hail storms do happen, so specify UV resistant outdoor materials.
Typical large format printing requests in the area come from:
- Designers, agencies and resellers: printers and agencies sending wide format work to a shop with bigger or UV machines
- Small businesses and start-ups: posters for the shop window and a mounted price board for behind the counter
- Government and municipalities: public notices, maps, awareness posters and exhibition boards for departments and municipalities
