We are The Visual Unit.
A retail branding production agency crafting experiential environments. Our mission is to take our clients’ ideas and concepts and bring them to life.
We provide an end-to-end service by conceptualising, designing, developing and implementing creative design, merchandising and branding in environments of your choice.
Who We Work With
Reducing The Environmental Impact of The Visual Unit
Eco-Friendly Printing
As part of our on-going commitment to the environment, we use solvent-free latex inks, UV solvent-free and eco-solvent inks. Our inks are cartridge fed to ensure zero waste. Non-pvc vinyls, boards and finishes are also available in our range of materials we use.
Recycling
All of our waste is recycled and our set up waste is less than 10% of a conventional printing press. We have strived to reduce the inevitable waste involved in setting up our printers and we are continuously looking at ways to reduce this further.
