All Things Golf

For us here at Photocast Products golf is not only a favorable pass time for the business directors but also plays a key part in the day to day business.

Over the years we have build a solid reputation and we continue to work closely with our strategic partner to supply a wide variety of cast bronze and etched zinc signage as well as course furniture for some of the most prestigious golf courses in the UK and the US – including St. Andrews, Celtic Manor and The K Club.

Regular running work includes items such as:

  • Tee & Point of Play markers
  • On-Course directional signage
  • Club House & Walkway signage
  • Bench memorials
  • Tee bins & Divot boxes

Our work is also renowned across the globe with projects in recent months being completed for new courses in Egypt at the Madinaty Golf Club and for the PGA National Oaks in the Czech Republic, both of which were completed on time and our quality has received great praise from both clubs.

Daily Express Building Manchester

Last year we were approached by Ben Adams Architects to work with them on the recent refurbishment of the iconic, art deco Daily Express Building in Manchester.

Our brief was to create and manufacture all the internal directional signage as well as a unique frieze in the reception area and capture the character of the building and its historic uses.

The frieze consists of sixty-two broadsheet panels and stimulate original inked letterpress printing plates and depict major world events such as:

  • The Moon Landing
  • VE Day
  • The Assassination of JFK
  • The Queens Jubilee
  • Freedom of Nelson Mandela
  • England’s 1966 World Cup Win

The panels were made using our deep zinc etching process and hand finished to create an attractive worn inked effect

More examples of our work can be found in our photo gallery.
