Engraving operators Kris Head and Andy McCoy from BPI Color

Custom signage provider BPI Color has enhanced its capabilities by investing in a turnkey engraving solution facilitated by National / AZON.

The bundle includes engraving equipment from Vision Engraving & Routing Systems, high-quality substrates from Rowmark, and comprehensive training. With this investment, BPI Color is now able to produce ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) signage in-house, improving both efficiency and quality for customers across Wisconsin.

Matt Bennett, vice president of operations at BPI Color, said: “We were facing significant delays with our previous vendors, sometimes waiting up to 8 to 12 weeks for ADA signage.

“The engraving equipment from Vision Engraving & Routing Systems has allowed us to drastically reduce lead times, while ensuring that we meet the high standards required for ADA compliance.”

In just six months, BPI Color’s new equipment has already paid for itself, thanks to a combination of new customers and increased orders from existing clients. The company is seeing significant demand, particularly from contractors who need ADA signage to meet building code requirements quickly and without errors.

Looking ahead, BPI Color plans to expand its production capacity and explore larger-scale ADA signage projects. The company is also working toward establishing itself as a go-to resource for architects and contractors, particularly in emergency scenarios where ADA signage is needed quickly to meet occupancy requirements.
