At Chalkboards UK, we're always happy to develop bespoke products for clients, never more so than when BrewDog approached us to design a new table top chalkboard for their bars.

The board was to promote their Punk IPA craft beer on bar tops around the country. BrewDog wanted a product that reflected the brand, so we designed a board with a top shaped to the contours of their shield logo, set in a hardwood base.

After samples were made and approved, an initial order was received and completed in two weeks. Their marketing department and bar managers were so pleased with the chalkboards, we received a repeat order for the same quantity a few months later.

Our work with BrewDog hasn't stopped there. They wanted a special sliding lid box made for the launch of a speciality craft beer called 'Death or Glory'.

Our sister company, WoodenBox UK, was able to design a hardwood box with a heat-branded logo that fitted the bill. Again, pre-production samples were made and once signed off, the order was delivered in less than two weeks, just in time for the launch of the beer.

The first 1000 orders of the beer received a bottle in the special presentation box.

These two bespoke products have allowed us to build up a great working relationship with BrewDog, for whom we are now working on another project for larger shaped chalkboards for their bottle shops.

At Porter and Woodman Group, all departments work together to provide the best services possible.

The relationship between Print Services and Chalkboards UK is particularly close, with Print Services providing all the design and artwork facilities to produce printed chalkboards. There are a few examples here of our work together, but a much bigger range of printed work can be seen on the Chalkboards website, and there is now a case study page on the Print Services website.

The design and print service provided by Chalkboards UK can range from one-off chalkboards printed with the logo of a pub, restaurant or shop; to larger contract work for breweries, retail chains and soft drinks companies.

A large contract has recently been completed for the National Trust for A Frames printed in 5 colours and distributed on their behalf to their properties.

Print Services also provides the design and print facility for all other departments' marketing requirements, including Chalkboards UK's Chalk It Up newsletter.
