Poblocki wins $650,000 sign project

Poblocki Sign Co. has been selected as the preferred sign provider for the Viera Health Park project, a new hospital facility in Brevard County.

The $650,000 contract calls for more than 1,000 exterior and interior signs. Poblocki, based in Milwaukee, Wis., is working in collaboration with Orlando-based Mari Frith Associates Inc., the project’s lead graphics designer, and HuntonBrady Architects.

Poblocki will fabricate and install the interior and exterior signage for the hospital, which will include building and room identification and wayfinding signage.

Viera Health Park, expected to be completed by fall 2010, includes a medical office building that will offer diagnostic, wellness and therapeutic services to Viera-area residents.

Yes, but many of those sign companies don't necessarily release that info publicly. It looks like it comes from the Orlando Business Journal and likely not from Poblocki themselves. I think a link should always be provided hen this sort of news or press release is posted. Puts things in better context IMO.

That said - I've been to Poblocki's HQ in Milwaukee and was extremely impressed with their facility and people. It's clear they take extreme pride in their own location and their work - it felt like more like walking into Microsoft than a sign shop - and this no doubt gives their clients the confidence to deal with them. The unique "winged" monument sign out front was the nicest I've seen in front of any sign co - which is saying something.

I have been told the same thing about them - good company.

    • It depends on what's under the EIFS.   If it's plywood under the foam, then toggles are fine for a lightweight sign.  If masonry, we've come to like the titen HD (simpson strong tie brand) anchors or long wedge anchors.   The Titen HD screws are more user friendly than tapcons IMO.   They come in a variety of sizes, sometimes even at the big home centers.   Just check to see if it's densglass (fiberglass wall panels) under the foam.  Engineeners have told us that densglass isn't "structural" and that things need to be thru-bolted with uni-strut (or equal) sleepers across studs inside the wall.  A few years back, we were called out for an emergency call where someone had installed some large raceway channel letter signs to an EIFS wall that had densglass behind.  They used lag screws.  These held for a while but a heavy snow caused them to fail.   And toggles should work with Densglass but again not for any heavy loads.    In any case don't compress the foam too much.  A sleeve (mentioned above) would be needed for whatever the depth of the foam might be, though probably not needed for something light like an ACM panel.   if it's a really small sign, then appropriate exterior screws are usually OK going into plywood.

    • Are there any recommendations for the best types of anchors to use for lightweight signs on EIFS?  <a href=" https://www.phoenixstuccocontractor.com/"> Phoenix Stucco Contractors</a>
    • Hi   Can anyone tell me the right color red and blue translucent vinyl for the "new" Pepsi logo?  We have a local ice cream spot that recently changed from Coke to Pepsi and we have to replace the graphics on a couple of lit cabinets.   The customer sent me the logo in various formats but it didn't specify the correct colors.   I've searched but keep getting CYMK, etc. for the older logo - 2022 or so.   Thanks!
