Electro-Luminescent (EL) Signage
Example Of Electro-Luminescent (EL) Signage

Electro-Luminescent Signage for advertising purposes is an awesome and relatively new technology of signage which consumes just a fraction of the electricity taken by a similar sized neon sign.
With EL Signs, impressive effects can be created with any logo or promotion using special lighting techniques.
EL Signs are relatively inexpensive and have an expected panel life of between 6000 and 8000 hours at maximum brightness. They are driven by inverter driver boxes which plug into a standard powerpoint.
One of the big attractions of EL signs is their portability - they are often printed on flexible material 0.6mm to 0.8mm thick, so they can even be rolled up during transportation.
To have EL Signs designed to suit your own promotional requirements, simply email us a static jpg image of your promotion and we will email you a sample animation of what your promotion will look like as an EL sign. Please specify the order quantity required and the desired size of the sign if you require a quotation for EL signs.

Also note that we are able to put the same animation on t-shirts and caps.

Want a unique way to make an effective impression?
You have a great idea, but what if it gets lost in the clutter? Are you looking for a unique way to cut through the clutter of posters and advertising signage that numb and congest your audience?s receptiveness to your message?
Then grab your audience by printing your message on a thin, durable and lightweight print medium that not only lights up like a fluorescent backlit sign but also provides eye-catching animation effects, similar to neon, but far more dramatic and realistic because it works within a high-resolution image.
What is EL, and how does it work?
EL, or electroluminescent signage, is essentially a flat light bulb sandwich consisting of layers of conductive and non-conductive plastic and a layer of phosphor. The phosphor is laminated between two conductive layers and, as a voltage is applied between the two conductive layers, or electrodes, the phosphor emits light energy. When a high-quality, high-resolution image is printed over the light, it behaves like a backlit sign.
Taking it further: Animation makes EL even more effective
By taking this idea further and dividing the printed image into several different sections that can be illuminated separately from one another, we can program and sequence these sections to provide an animated effect as we flash and/or fade the phosphor light in each of the sections in and out to create the impression of movement within a static printed image.
Genuinely cool
The illuminated phosphor does not generate heat the way conventional light sources do so EL runs cool. You can encapsulate or enclose the panels without fear of them overheating or melting.
Highly portable and easy to install
Because EL panels are self-contained, there is no light box required. So you don’t have to deal with heavy infrastructure to install an animated EL sign panel. There is only a small inverter box (power supply), which plugs in to normal 120 VAC wall current.
Panels can be hung without any special hardware. They can also be framed, or built-in to a custom fixture or display. The flexibility and thinness of the panels even allows them to be installed around columns. They work great in all areas where space is limited and costs are a consideration. We can produce animated EL sheets that are as small as a watch face or a bracelet.
Ozibadge Animated EL solutions offer the added benefit of eye-catching and intriguing animation at a cost comparable to what other suppliers charge for backlit-only (non-animated) products.
Of course we can do a basic backlit, but our real specialty is animated product.
Our EL Signs maintain consistency of colour between the illuminated and the non-illuminated image, and avoid washing-out. The image is consistently appealing and powerful in both the on and the off modes.
