CENTRAL GRAPHICS, based in Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio, decorated Cleveland in preparation for the 2022 NBA All-Star Game. “The NBA did not come to town with all their signs and banners,” says Dave Soulsby, president, Central Graphics. “They came here and bought local. It’s nice to see big companies buying local in a market when they come to town.”

Central Graphics printed and installed window graphics and banners around downtown, including a large banner on the front of City Hall. They used their HP Latex R1000 printer onto Mactac M-Dot 128 film with no lamination, mesh banner material, B2 Signs Feather Flags, and 3M Scotchcal graphic film IJ35 with 3M 8508 Scotchcal overlaminate, finished on their Seal 65 Pro MD laminator.

The graphics were installed in 11-degree weather. “Got to love Cleveland in February!” says Soulsby.
