For this recent Petone Esplanade project, we used aluminium foil concrete graphics designed specifically for high-traffic outdoor environments.
These graphics are made to embed into the surface of the concrete itself, creating an incredibly durable finish that can handle heavy foot traffic, changing weather conditions, UV exposure, water, heat, and cold.
The textured surface also provides aggressive slip resistance, making them a practical solution for public spaces and coastal walkways where safety is important.
One of the reasons we love this product is that it offers a modern alternative to traditional painted pavement graphics. Not only does it allow for far more customised and detailed designs, but it’s also built to last significantly longer in outdoor environments.
Another feature worth highlighting is that these graphics are PVC-free and use an aluminium foil base, making them a more environmentally conscious option compared to traditional vinyl-based alternatives. The aluminium material is recyclable after use and was purposely selected for projects where long-term durability and environmental considerations both matter.
We’ve installed these graphics in some seriously demanding locations over the years - including riverside areas exposed to flooding and harsh weather - and they continue to perform exceptionally well.
Projects like this are a great reminder that good signage isn’t just about creating something that looks good on day one. It’s about selecting products that are fit for purpose, built for the environment they’re going into, and designed to stand the test of time.
