International Sign Association's International Sign Expo 2016 Names Innovation Award Winners
Alexandria, VA (PRWEB) March 24, 2016 -- ISA International Sign Expo 2016 promises to offer a number of new and groundbreaking products, including the six that have been named ISA Sign Expo 2016 Innovation Award winners.
The Innovation Awards will be highlighted on the sold-out tradeshow floor, allowing attendees an opportunity to see the products deemed the best of the best by a panel of sign and graphics industry experts.
“With more than 200,000 square feet and almost 600 exhibitors, the ISA Sign Expo 2016 tradeshow floor is already proving to be a great place to see the latest products,” said Iain Mackenzie, ISA’s vice president, meetings and events. “While there were a number of truly innovative products submitted and available on the tradeshow floor, the 2016 Innovation Award winners offer ideas that can transform the industry through better workflow solutions or more effective products for end users.”
The ISA Sign Expo 2016 Innovation Award Winners are:
Winner: ike GPS Spike allows sign and graphics professionals to measure signs by capturing the width, height and area of a space just by taking a photo from a smartphone or tablet. It can be used on all types of signs, from channel letters to monument and pylon signs. Booth #2589
Second place: Etulipa Carbon, a display made up of next-generation electrowetting technology, powering pixels with colored oil, not light. It works on outdoor screens like paper, but can be changed in real-time like digital signs. Booth #209
