Testimonials

Don't just take our word for it, see what our customers have to say.

With reference to Brenda Dunaway of the APCO Carolinas Office in Charlotte, NC
"I’ve had the good fortune to work with Brenda on projects for two separate buildings at the UNC Charlotte Campus.  Each assignment was unique and required a different approach.  Brenda and her crew at APCO provided us with imaginative options, helped guide us through the choices we needed to make, and delivered and installed our product with a minimum of fuss and worry.

Our biggest challenge was finding a way-finding product that would compliment our brand new Student Union.  Brenda recognized how critical the element of design would be to the success of the project and suggested a APCO line that fits into our décor perfectly.  The many compliments we’ve received post installation are proof of how valuable the recommendation was.  The next time I need a signage project to go smoothly, my first call will be to APCO."

"In 2009 we opened a new 10-story patient tower which more than doubled the size of our facility and campus. The expansion brought to light the woeful state of our signage both interior and exterior. APCO surveyed our facility, developed efficient solutions for our longstanding wayfinding issues. Not only are the signs attractive they are simple and cost effective to maintain. They continue to provide quality customer service and support during our ongoing re-signing efforts."

"As an integrated design firm, which includes architecture, landscape and interior design, engineering, as well as signage and graphics, our services allow us to deliver consistent and complete design aesthetics. Signage and graphics often become the defining details of a project, and one of the final long-lasting impressions. These elements direct, enlighten and can even tell a story.

Throughout the years APCO has been an invaluable resource in our process to create practical and meaningful solutions. Our objective is to produce results that are responsive to the project needs, while utilizing cost-effective solutions which meet client goals, regardless of scope and size.

From large ground-up projects to small renovations, APCO's breadth of products has provided flexible and adaptable solutions that inform, educate and enhance the spaces we create. Their comprehensive and holistic solutions not only provide value to our projects, but their customer support highly compliments the quality of service our clients have come to expect. "

"Wayfinding in our older building was difficult, even for staff. Needless to say, the old, out-of-date directories didn't exactly help the thousands of students and campus community navigate our halls. With more than 40 directories/bulletin boards to replace, five departments to satisfy, and respect for fiscally challenging times, Kevin Immel, my APCO sales representative, made the sizeable project much easier to digest. From helping select signage appropriate for the needs of an educational institution through overseeing the installation of the selected directories, Kevin shared his expert industry knowledge and provided first-rate customer service. I would entrust APCO, and specifically Kevin, again with any wayfinding projects -- both big and small."

"I have worked with APCO on several projects and have been extremely happy with their services. During planning stages of the projects, my representatives assisted with wayfinding issues, local codes and design recommendations. They worked and interacted successfully on each project with all the team members. Flexibility with our changes as well as contractor and owner requests helped make implementation and installation seamless. The results were successful projects and happy clients!"

"APCO interior signage systems are used in several of our academic buildings on campus. The thoughtfulness in planning the style, quantity and installation locations is well thought out and executed in a very timely and professional manner. Many of our buildings are classic in style and age yet APCO systems blend in perfectly. Wayfinding, especially in multi-use and multi-level buildings, can be a challenge but the APCO products definitely solve the problem."

"Our experience with APCO was extremely service oriented throughout our wayfinding project, including the signage design, implementation, installation and follow up. Our APCO consultants were especially helpful in offering a number of different signage recommendations and solutions for helping our patients navigate through our hospital. Our administration was very pleased with APCO's revitalization of our existing monument entrance sign that was transformed to replicate the design of the new directional
and ID signs APCO had provided for our campus. From the halls of our hospital to the rows of our parking lot, our campus now has consistent, patient-friendly signage thanks to our ongoing relationship with APCO.

With reference to Diane Kurzawski of APCO's Sign Planning Department…..
"Any company is only as good as its employees and Diane, as far as I am concerned, you are what makes APCO the sign company the very best to work with for interior and exterior signage. Throughout the many years we have worked together, you have not only been a great signage representative but have been become a great friend. What more can I say about you or APCO. You are the ones I count on to come through for me when I truly need help with signage."

With reference to the restoration of the Martin Luther King, Jr. Federal Building in Atlanta, Georgia...
"Thank you for all your hard work on the MLK project! Your signage is amazing! I very much appreciate how you were able to take our concept, on a limited budget, and make the signage look so expensive. The metallic coloration and the eagle design are fantastic."
