Featured Project: Wall Mural for Airport Dog Relief Area

Cleveland-based Repros Inc., a large- and grand-format production facility for graphics solutions and products, knows wall graphics. So, it wasn’t a shock when Recess Creative LLC, a full-service creative agency, approached Repros for a recommendation on a slightly unusual wall graphic application they were designing. The project was for Cleveland Hopkins International Airport’s doggy relief area, a dedicated area inside the airport for traveling pets to relieve themselves. The customer’s primary concern: Keeping the walls in the area clean and protected.

Repros recommended Mactac’s REBEL H multi-print media. The experts at Repros also suggested the Recess team pair REBEL H with PermaGard Shield, an overlaminate that protects graphics and features antimicrobial properties. Recess Creative took the recommendation, finished the graphic design, and turned things over to Repros for printing and installation. Repros printed the graphics on a Canon Océ Colorado Series printer and installed it within 1.5 hours using two installers.

Anthony La Guardia of Repros says, “Since the customer also wanted something easy to clean, but that offered protection, we knew the Shield overlaminate would deliver the added benefits they were looking for.”

Chris Jungjohann, the founder/principal of Recess Creative, adds, “This project started off as a pretty typical install until we learned of the unique requirements of the interior walls. But, working with Repros is always an easy choice. They consistently deliver a high-end product on time, and I never have to worry about anything. When they suggested this new material to help block out germs and protect not only the walls but the passengers and their pets, we knew this was what we were looking for. The finished space looks awesome, and we don’t have to worry about wear and tear.”

Repros offers digital, large-format graphics using industrial printers for indoor architectural graphics, outdoor signage, event and trade show displays, retail and point-of-purchase signage, fine art printing, and fleet and vehicle graphics.
