Neon Led czy neon szklany?

Neon Led or glass neon?

Neon signs are one of the most popular advertising elements in marketing. They create colourful images, letters, logos or information for cinemas, restaurants, clubs, and companies. The art of implementing projects with the use of neon lights allows you to achieve unique and delightful effects. During the day they look very inconspicuous, only at dusk do they present themselves in all their glory. Neon lights sold by our company are perfect both inside and outside the building. This form of advertising is durable and resistant to harsh weather conditions. It is an ideal marketing investment for many years, which is why so many companies are choosing it. The undoubted advantage is also the large reach regarding the visibility of neon advertising. Such an advertisement does not require additional highlights, as is the case with banners or signs. In addition, the effective appearance of such an advertisement means that customers not only learn about the products or services of a given company, but also perceive it as trustworthy and recommendable. Perfectly presented glass neon lights add a professional character to the company.

We use the highest quality glass neon lights


Our company is characterized by market knowledge, many years of experience, and careful selection of materials and accessories appropriate for the implementation. We pay attention to the smallest details, which are extremely important in the entire process of creation and assembly. Therefore the whole realization takes on style and full precision. We use the highest quality neon glass from European and American producers. It is in the USA, the cradle of neon lights, which is associated with brightly lit Las Vegas, that the highest quality elements necessary for the production of this type of lighting are created. Therefore, the service life of our products is very long and pleases the eye even for several years of use. In addition, we have a properly adapted workshop, which is perfect even for the most demanding orders. This place facilitates the process of creating unusual compositions and interesting combinations for our clients. Highly specialized staff performs tasks that affect the final appearance and quality of our products.

Which neon to choose - LED neon or glass neon?


Often, customers ask us about the specificity of neon lights, their way of creating, and their durability. Due to the fact that we are supporters of glass neon, we often emphasize that the very process of creating glass neon influences their quality and durability. Glass neon lights are a tradition in itself. Over the years, they have been refined in terms of production techniques, made of more and more durable components. Therefore, they are more resistant to failures. They have been fulfilling their role perfectly for a century, enjoying great support among people choosing proven and original products. Various shapes and sizes are created from glass neon, while maintaining the authenticity of the colors. Contrary to an ordinary light bulb, glass neon lights can be easily formed into various shapes, because they consist of a thin tube, and the light in the neon is generated by the process of electric discharge in gases.

Where can glass neon lights be used?


Mainly, glass neon signs have been used for years as a form of advertising and providing information to many companies towards their potential customers. Recently, glass neon lights are also increasingly used to create various types of interior decorations, in particular lamps. They are also often used to illuminate furniture, stairs, or ceiling spaces. They are gaining more and more popularity in gardens, especially near ponds. This form of lighting is also extremely popular in bars and hotels. Illuminated rooms in entertainment spaces not only illuminate the rooms but also give them a unique character. The atmosphere created by neon lighting allows you to achieve the intended effects. These traditional forms of neon lights are appreciated by supporters of interesting and extraordinary designs.

Metal advertising is a great solution for your business

It has been known for a long time that advertising is the key to business success. Both the message itself and its realization are important in it. Metal advertising is considered to be one of the most effective ways of presenting your business and can be used both indoors and outdoors. Visible, legible, and aesthetic, it allows you to reach a wide audience.
Outdoor advertising is noticeable among people who walk along city streets or commute to work by tram or car every day. They see large, illuminated inscriptions that remain in their memory.
The same applies to placing metal advertisements inside buildings. Distinctive logos or advertising slogans, located in shopping malls, attract the attention of customers and encourage them to take advantage of the company's offer.

Good corporate advertising is a key marketing aspect. A company that cares about its continuous development also pays attention to the brand's reputation outside.

Business owners, paying attention to costs, analyze every expenditure, including money spent on marketing and advertising. The resistance of metal advertising to mechanical damage and weather conditions is an excellent investment for many years; therefore, entrepreneurs do not have to worry about ill-considered business expenses.

Spatial letters in our cities

In the last few months, technology has moved forward, taking us into a completely different dimension. However, one thing has remained the same. Of course, we are talking about the use of spatial letters by manufacturers of advertising signs. Additional development of the technology of illuminating letters with LED modules means that this choice will be the best decision for many years to come. You ask why? These decisions are influenced by a number of factors, among others, the materials from which they are made, their functionality, versatility and originality.


Spatial letters smile clinic


Let's start with the first factor which are the materials used to create three-dimensional letters. You probably don't even expect it but spatial letters can be made of any type of material, from ordinary metal letters, through stainless steel sheet, plexiglass, and even natural leather! All these materials, if properly preserved, are resistant to changing weather conditions, which affects their durability. On the streets of our cities, we can more and more often meet spatial advertisements, however, it is their appearance, structure and material that arouse admiration and increase interest of the place they invite you to. That is why the creators of spatial advertisements are still competing in inventing newer and newer methods and materials from which they make spatial letters. After all, each brand focuses on the originality of its advertisements.  


Spatial letters at the reception desk


Another factor that I would like to discuss is the functionality of spatial letters. Nowadays, a very important aspect in marketing is the recognition of a given brand and drawing attention to it by potential passers-by. That is why all well-known brands have their own unique logos that can be perfectly used to create a spatial advertisement that, visible from a distance, will arouse the interest of potential customers. In addition, the presentation of the logo in the form of a spatial advertisement made of original material or properly illuminated will make it visible not only from a distance, but also after dark. That is why we see so many different spatial advertisements on the walls of shopping malls. Some companies even decide to place free-standing spatial letters in front of their showrooms, the height of which depends only on the imagination of their designer. Increasingly, it is a procedure also used by city councils to advertise their cities on the tourist map of Europe.


Spatial letters at the reception desk


As I mentioned before, with good conservation of the material used for the production of spatial letters, their durability increases, which makes them a long-term investment. However, they can always be modified after years to take into account the prevailing trend or technological changes. This makes spatial advertising timeless and will always attract attention.


For me personally, it is one of the most interesting ideas used to promote a given brand. During these few years of taking photos for the advertising producer, which is Pretende.pl, I managed to capture spatial letters in my frames, advertising, among others, international corporations, prestigious restaurants, but also smaller beauty salons, clinics, hotels and law offices. In each of these places, the spatial letters were made of a different material referring to the specificity of the place. In the exclusive beauty salon, which is the Secret Lashes salon, for which we had the opportunity to make spatial advertisements, this material was gold sheet, which when properly illuminated gave the effect of pure gold. However, when preparing a spatial advertisement on the wall of a law firm, we used wood to create it - attracting attention and referring to the company's stable position on the market. In the case of advertising for a media company such as the Schibsted brand, we used plexiglass, which gives the advertisement an appropriate space and lightness.  


Letters with skin


Finally, I would like to invite you to see the gallery of spatial letters made by us over the last few years. You will see how diverse these letters can be. Maybe you also have an idea to create a spatial advertisement advertising your brand or you are looking for inspiration?


Write to us, and we will certainly help you in the preparation of the advertisement, bearing in mind the specification of the brand and your expectations towards our spatial letters.

Neon as a unique and timeless form of communication

Four years ago…. I remember it like it was yesterday, in mid-October 2016, I received a mysterious phone call asking me to take pictures of several spatial advertisements in the Tri-City. My first thought was - "I should take pictures of billboards and store advertisements… It makes no sense". But on the other hand, as a photographer, I always value gaining photographic experience in undiscovered areas. After the first meeting with the boss of the Pretende company, I knew that they would not be just some hanging advertisements, but creative, modern and elegant, unique and eye-catching spatial advertisements. Not only are there spatial letters decorating various entrances, but also LED illuminated letters, exclusive golden letters or futuristic inscriptions made of wooden and stainless steel letters. However, none of them delight me as much as neon ads!

This is how my four-year-long adventure with various neon signs all over Poland began. And all of them came from one studio located between Gdańsk and Sopot - Pretende.pl. And there is no neon sign among them to repeat.

Most of you might say that you would have gotten bored with taking another neon photo a long time ago (after all, 4 years is a long time). However, let me tell you that each new order is even more interesting than the previous one. It is related, among other things, to the development of neon ads over the past few years. During this time, the forms that neon advertisements took have changed completely. We used to be able to watch simple neon signs above the entrance to a shop or a fitting room. Now, neon signs have taken on completely new shapes of company logos, inscriptions several meters long on the walls of office buildings (inside and outside), people and objects. I would never have expected that neon lights would become such a universal creative and unique form of advertising. Over the years, they have found their way to the windows of branded salons. They decorated the walls of restaurants and cafes, and now they advertise the largest music festivals. The material from which they are made (I cannot reveal too many details) is so plastic that you can create almost any shape from it, and the availability of their colours is limited only by our imagination.

Interestingly, I see neon lights decorating the walls of… our apartments more and more often. Because there is no better way to create the atmosphere of a modern industrial interior than to order an original, glowing neon, which, illuminated in the evening, attracts the attention of all household members and guests. In addition, neon is a great gift idea! Each of us would like his apartment to be unique but in the style in which we feel best. Thus, the neon hanging on the wall will suit any interior - you just need to think what it is supposed to represent, choose its colour and the right place ...

During these few years of cooperation, I have visited over 150 places in our country where there are advertisements made by Pretende. Most of them have neon lights. There are still many places ahead of me that I have not managed to visit with my camera yet, including foreign ones, because recently the Pretende company has also sent neon signs abroad. One of them was, among others, at the opening of the first LPP store in London, which was hosted by the well-known top model Kate Moss.

And let me tell you that in my work as a Pretende photographer there is no time for boredom. Each new advertisement, especially the neon one, brings delight, a large dose of curiosity and the desire to have your own neon on the bedroom wall. But this is only after the next renovation ... although the idea for shape and colour is already here!
