We offer a balance between traditional processes and technology and have been creating solid metal and three-dimensional signs for over seventy years.
Our Services
We use a range of materials - bronze, brass, aluminium and stainless steel and can advise on what will offer durability, style and strength across different environments.
Design issues include expertise in a range of finishes and effects from the Florentines and satins to the hand patina/aged effects created through the application of chemicals to enhance the end result and add texture. Consistency with corporate, primary or secondary typefaces or lettering and corporate colour palettes (where appropriate) go without saying. Colour is especially important for the detailed work required in designing and executing sculpted crests.
Corporate client work includes signage for Kings School, Auckland City Council, Scarbro Construction, New Plymouth District Council, R.N.Z.N, New Zealand Breweries.
In addition R.A. White & Co services numerous small and large consulting companies and architects looking to, for example, promote residential building addresses through signage for a prestigious touch that appeals to visitors, home owners and investors alike.
