Dubois Highlights Its Mission, Vision and Values With Custom Interior Signage

Interior signage can do more than fill an empty wall. It can communicate a company’s identity, reinforce its values and create a workspace that feels connected to the brand. For businesses looking to create a more intentional office environment, custom interior signage offers an opportunity to incorporate branding and company messaging directly into the space.

For Dubois’ corporate office in Ohio, Signarama Ankeny helped bring the company’s culture and brand messaging into the workplace through a collection of custom interior signage. As a chemical supplier, Dubois’ industry provided a natural foundation for the creative concept, incorporating periodic table-inspired elements into the office signage.

Custom Mission, Vision and Values Displays

The project included two dimensional Mission, Vision and Values boards, giving Dubois’ guiding principles a prominent place within the office. Rather than keeping important company messaging in an employee handbook or internal document, custom wall signage allows those ideas to become a visible part of the workplace.

These types of office signs can help businesses reinforce their culture while creating a more branded and professional environment for employees, clients and visitors.

A Custom Display Centered Around Dubois’ People and Industry

A standout feature of the project was a custom display built around the statement “Our People are our catalyst.” Dimensional lettering was paired with 12 periodic table-inspired signs, creating a connection between Dubois’ company culture and its work as a chemical supplier.

Each of the 12 element-style signs represents a specific Dubois value, focus or principle. For example, “Ta” represents Talent, while “Ci” represents Continuous Improvement. Using the familiar format of the periodic table gives each message its own visual identity while tying the collection together around a concept that is directly connected to Dubois’ industry.

The display shows how a company’s industry can provide inspiration for creative, meaningful interior signage. Rather than relying on generic office graphics, the design incorporates elements that are relevant to Dubois while reinforcing the company’s people, values and culture.

A Custom Catalyst Display

The periodic table theme continues with a large custom display centered around the word “Catalyst.” An oversized element-style graphic featuring “Ct” with “Catalyst” underneath is paired with the definition of the word, creating a prominent focal point within the office.

The display connects the scientific concept of a catalyst with Dubois’ messaging and the statement “Our People are our catalyst.” It also ties together the periodic table-inspired signage throughout the space, giving the collection a consistent theme and purpose.

Custom Interior Signage for Businesses

A well-designed office can communicate a lot about a company before anyone says a word. Custom interior signage can help businesses showcase their brand, highlight company values, recognize employees, identify different areas of a facility and create a more polished workplace environment.

From dimensional lettering and branded wall signs to custom displays and environmental graphics, there are many ways to incorporate a company’s identity into an interior space. Businesses can also draw inspiration from their industry, products, services or company culture to create signage that feels unique to their organization.

The Dubois project is one example of how custom office signage can combine branding, company culture and industry-specific design to create a cohesive workplace environment. Whether you are updating an existing office, moving into a new corporate space or looking for ways to better incorporate your brand into your facility, custom interior signage can help transform blank walls and unused spaces into meaningful branded features.
