The production of Wuhu environmental protection signs is not just a brand, but also a green footnote to the urban ecology.

Recently, I was thinking about the streets and alleys of Wuhu, and I discovered something very interesting. Those cold "No Parking" and "Surveillance Here" signs in the past seemed to have quietly changed. There are many more ingeniously designed signs made of recycled materials, such as on the riverside. I saw a guide sign in the park. The base is actually recycled ship wood, and the texture is still there. The road map is printed with environmentally friendly paint. It does not conflict with the surrounding environment at all. This makes me feel that the production of environmental protection signs in Wuhu is really not as simple as just "getting a board and carving a few words on it."

To be honest, when I first came into contact with this industry, I also thought that signboards should have clear functions and be strong and durable. However, in the past two years, the trend has indeed changed, especially since Wuhu is building a "Pearl of the Yangtze River, Ecological City", and the entire city's "green" requirements have slowly penetrated from slogans to every corner. Of course, the "urban furniture" of signs and signs has to follow suit. Party A's fathers (that is, the managers of various parks, scenic spots, and communities) came to discuss their needs. They kept saying "environmentally friendly materials", "designed to be more natural", and "best to echo our ecological theme". What does this mean? This shows that environmental protection is no longer just a bonus, it has become a hard threshold.

So how to do it specifically? There are many ways to do this. First of all, there are all kinds of materials. In the early years, they might have been aluminum plates, stainless steel or PVC. Nowadays, more recycled aluminum, recycled plastics, and "wood-plastic composite materials" made of sawdust and environmentally friendly resin are used. The feel is close to wood, and it is not afraid of wind and sun. I have seen a The garbage sorting guide signs in this community are made of plastic recycled from used household appliances. The sign also uses a boy to explain the source of the material, which feels particularly convincing. Natural bamboo is also used for partial decoration, but it must be treated with antiseptic treatment, otherwise mushrooms will grow in Wuhu within two years due to the humidity.

The design is even more difficult. The most feared thing about environmental protection signs is that they are ugly and abrupt, like a patch in the beautiful scenery. Good design must be learned to "hide". In terms of color, the eye-catching red and green are rarely used nowadays. More "high-end gray", "ecological green" and "earthy brown" are taken from the environment. The saturation is lower, which is comfortable to look at, and the shape is as simple as possible. Jane, reduce unnecessary edges and decorations. For example, a notice board in the park to protect flowers and plants is designed in the shape of a slightly curved leaf, inserted on the edge of the grass. It does not look like an order, but like a gentle reminder. The fonts must also be selected. Those artistic calligraphy with arrogant strokes should be used as little as possible. Clear and easy-to-read Song fonts, bold fonts, or some fonts with strong handwriting feel are more friendly.

In terms of technology, great progress has been made. Traditional spray paint has a strong smell and pollution. Now the mainstream is UV printing or environmentally friendly water-based paint printing. UV printing not only has high precision and reliable colors, but also cures almost instantly and has no volatile matter. I visited a local factory. They are also trying to use laser engraving to replace part of the printing, burning patterns and text directly on the recycled wood board, giving it a rustic native beauty. Even the ink is saved, and the installation process must be paid attention to. Try to use buckles and embedded parts to reduce on-site welding and painting, just for a little bit.: Minimize the impact of construction on the environment.

However, ideals are full, but reality is sometimes quite skinny. The cost of making environmentally friendly labels is indeed higher than ordinary standard parts, whether it is material fees or design and processing fees. Some projects with tight budgets will frown upon hearing the quotation. This requires us to communicate and calculate another account.: Environmentally friendly labels are more durable and have lower maintenance costs. ； The image improvement and public favorability it brings have greater implicit value. The performance of environmentally friendly materials is also constantly improving, such as UV resistance and anti-fading capabilities, which are now no worse than traditional materials.

I feel that Wuhu’s environmentally friendly signage is going through a process from “existing” to “excellent”. It is no longer an isolated product, but a part of the city’s ecological culture. It stands silently on the roadside and in the park, conveying the concept of environmental protection to everyone passing by in a silent but powerful way.: You see, even a small sign can be made with such care. Shouldn't we care more about the environment around us?

This job will feel quite fulfilling after you do it for a long time. What you are doing is not just a tool to indicate the direction, but more like adding green and warm footnotes to the city picture. You may even see signboards that incorporate solar light or are designed with local plant elements. This road will become more interesting and "greener" as you go. Let's look forward to it together.
