Case study: backlit glow sign boards for Johnson & Johnson’s OneTouch blood sugar meter, installed at about 150 pharmacies across Pune.
Johnson & Johnson (J&J), the healthcare company, was launching OneTouch UltraEasy, a blood sugar meter for people with diabetes.
A mass advertising campaign was planned to tell the public about it, and one part of the campaign was to show the product at pharmacies across the city.
Orchid Digitals’ brief was to install backlit glow sign boards at pharmacies in Pune, each carrying the OneTouch branding and the pharmacy’s own name. J&J wanted one team to handle the job end to end. Here is how we went about it.
Stage 2
Stage 3
In all, we branded approximately 150 stores in the city. The job took 15 days from start to finish.
A backlit glow sign board is printed backlit flex stretched over a metal box frame, with LED tube lights inside, so the board glows after dark. We print the flex on our solvent printer in double pass for rich colour when lit, then fabricate the frame and install the board on site in Pune.

This short video shows a 2D backlit glow sign board from start to finish: the print stretched over a metal box frame packed with LED tube lights, with a worked price example.
The J&J job shows how we run a rollout across many stores: one team surveys and measures every site, fits your artwork to each board size, fabricates and installs the boards, and sends you photographs of every finished store.
Send us the number of stores, their locations in Pune and your artwork, and we’ll come back with a plan and a quote.

But when forced to work, you’ll find him heading Orchid Digitals – a printing press in Pune.
If it’s an emergency, try looking for him in the hills behind his house. You’ll almost certainly find him… lazing under a tree, with a book in hand.
2D acrylic light box vs 3D LED letters: how each lit logo sign is built (ACP tray, LEDs, printed acrylic face, side glow), photos of a Cemindia light box from our Pune studio, a side-by-side diagram and how to choose.
Trendani Productions, a record label in Karaikudi, found us online and wanted its logo on a board for its recording room. The file was low-resolution, so we traced it again, printed the blue-to-purple gradient in-house, laser-cut the letters with the colour on, and couriered two boards from Pune to Tamil Nadu.
