What we do Design & Development Survey & Engineering Products Project Management Design & Development We design and develop your corporate signage and POP products from scratch. All you have to do is describe your needs and send us your logo! This process consists of 3 separate stages: 1. Visual Identity Design: Sketches and 3D renders! We start with numerous unique proposals which are gradually refined and narrowed-down to your selection. 2. Signage Development & Sampling: We choose the ideal materials and most effective production techniques. We develop the prototypes, manufacture your pilot signage and construct a realistic site in order to present your new signage in its natural environment. And if you are not satisfied with the result, we make the necessary changes and present it again! 3. Technical Manual: The final stage of the process: the technical manual is a book describing all technical aspects of your finalized products: materials, installation guide, production equipment and methodology used.. all the information you will need to recreate and mass produce your signage! Survey & Engineering Special dimensions, construction idiosyncrasies and rare environmental conditions: each building is unique! We make sure that your signage is equally unique! Before your signs are produced, a specialized surveyor visits your site to record your needs and challenges and take measurements of the installation site, with millimeter precision! Then, certified engineers create the technical documentation of your project, including the site's mock-up and the mechanical and structural study of your signage elements. Survey & Engineering is the crucial first step in every signage project that allows us to recommend the optimal combination of signage and the ideal points of installation in order to maximize the effectiveness of your sign system. Additionally, thanks to the precise measurement of your site, we can customize your signage to fit perfectly to your storefront and ensure a trouble-free installation.

When this rebrading programme takes place in multiple countries and retail points simultaneously, the people and parties involved need to be perfectly synchronized. Kouros has completed countless indoor and outdoor signage roll-outs, both in Europe and North Africa. For retail networks with hundreds of stores. And under the tightest deadlines and unfavourable conditions. Our project managers have been trained to coordinate every aspect of a signage rollout - from site survey to installation and after-sales service - so that your project is always completed on schedule and delivered to the customer...ready to use! Logistics & Installation Maintenance & Repair Retrofitting Logistics & Installation Transportation and installation is the final and perhaps the most critical stage of a signage project. A tiny error during installation is enough to ruin the project. "A business with no sign is a sign of no business"... but so is a business with an illuminated sign that does not illuminate! Or a decal that doesn't stick. And a highway pylon with inadequate foundations is...a public hazard!  At Kouros, we possess the accumulated experience from thousands of signage projects, as well as the principles and commitment to guarantee a flawless installation. Maintenance & Repair With high levels of air pollution in major cities and more than 250 days of sunshine per year, the Southeast Europe is an inhospitable place for signs. Regular maintenance of your sign ensures a trouble-free operation and the renewal of its lifespan. The maintenance programme of Kouros includes the thorough inspection of all signage elements, the internal and external cleaning, the replacement of damaged electrical parts and the restoration of scratches and minor damages. When the time comes, we alert you about the maintenance schedule and we coordinate the maintenance works across Greece and the Balkans! Let us perform your network's maintenance...and your signs will illuminate for many, many years! Retrofitting The signage and POP industry has taken advantage of the latest technologies, incorporating into its products innovative materials and production techniques that offer increased performance, better design and decreased maintenance costs. A typical example are LED's that came to replace "traditional" lighting technologies such as Neon and fluorescent tubes. The advantages of LED's include reduced power consumption by up to 80%, 2-3 times longer lifetime and overall product design benefits that stem from their small dimensions. By retrofitting your old signs, Kouros helps you take advantage of the benefits of the latest technologies without incurring the cost of a complete sign replacement. Offices Greece 19 ул.
