DCI Given Challenge to Create and Install Brown's Stadium Bridge Signage

clock October 23, 2009 14:46 by author Michael Gorfido

When safety is of absolute importance, Digital Color Imaging in Akron, Ohio is called upon.

To commemorate the history of two Cleveland Brown's Hall of Fame players and legends on the gridiron Bill Willis and Marion Motley, a unique graphic was designed to span the walking bridge inside the Brown's Stadium.

Knowing that thousands of fans would be walking 50 foot underneath and strong Lake Erie winds rustling through the open end of the Stadium, precise engineering and ingenuity would be of most importance.

DCI was given the challenge to create this memorable and permanent artifact that must be secured to an i-beam/concrete structure spanning a width of 67 feet. An additional problem to address was the issue of a vertical center i-beam in the middle of the walkway. DCI provided accurate drawings with dimensions, and provided an aesthetic and safe solution.

Today, multitudes of Browns fans across the country have already enjoyed this colorful and historical display in person and on national television. Special thanks to the entire Cleveland Brown's staff for your confidence and commitment in DCI!

There’s an old adage in the printing business: “You can have it fast, good or cheap. Pick two.” Surprisingly, DCI seems to have found a way to beat the odds.

Here’s a sampling of what four different clients had to say in letters nominating the printer for the Arts Alive! Business Support Award:

“DCI provides consistency and quality to every project they handle… They are eager to go the extra distance…” – Summit MRDD.

“When they say they will deliver, you can count on it being delivered! Whether you have been doing business for years or are a new nonprofit, DCI will treat you the same.” – METRO RTA

“DCI unfailingly comes to the rescue… Their finished product and customer service is outstanding!” – Tuesday Musical Association

“In tough economic times, support for charities by small companies often get postponed or eliminated. DCI has demonstrated outstanding support… Their in-kind donation (saved the equivalent of) 21,000 meals for the hungry.” – Akron-Canton Regional Foodbank

Enough said.

To commemorate 35 years of business excellence is a milestone that Quaker Steak & Lube Franchising Corporation celebrated recently at their 7th Annual Conference. Due to a long-standing relationship, DCI was invited to attend and meet franchise owners in person.

During the three day conference, franchise representatives visited the brand new Vendor Tradeshow. DCI provided each franchise with their own personalized pocket folders, notepads, calendars, and a variety of fun and interesting new concepts including the Pick-Up Wingo Drive-Thru featuring Gizzard Coop! Visiting the DCI trade booth, many wonderful compliments and kudos were given including the personalized letter written below from Marla Pieton. Thanks Marla, we had a blast being there and love working with all of you to provide an on-going pleasant eating experience for all of your customers!
