4.7/5 · 68 reviews
An advertising sign puts your message exactly where people expect it: outside a building site, at the entrance of a shop, along a road or on an exhibition stand. Akilux, Dibond or Forex, site hoarding or signage plate, each material has its own use. Based in Manciet, right in the heart of the Gers, 2M Numérique prints with UV-resistant inks, cuts to shape and installs on site across the Gers and the Landes. In-house design studio, production done mainly on site and 100% made in France, under the Made in Occitania label: you keep a single point of contact from the template right through to installation, plus a free quote within 72 hours, for a sign that lasts and gets noticed.
Building-site board, farm entrance or façade sign: every panel is quoted individually, like the aluminium composite panel for the Ferme de Bellevue. Delivery anywhere in France or collection from the Manciet workshop by appointment; installation is also quoted. Our large-format work has its own page for Auch and Mirande, and as far as Vic-en-Bigorre in the Hautes-Pyrénées.
A sign for every need on the ground
An advertising sign works where a poster wouldn't survive: outdoors, for the long haul, in all weather. You'll find it as a regulatory site hoarding, a company plate, directional signage or a promotional panel planted along a road. Depending on the finish and lifespan you're after, we choose the right material and format:
- Akilux (corrugated PVC): lightweight and budget-friendly, ideal for site hoardings and campaigns lasting a few months
- Dibond (aluminium composite): rigid and premium, perfect for a plate or sign that needs to stay flawless for years
- Forex (expanded PVC): smooth, crisp surface, practical for indoor signage and polished panels
- Site hoardings at 80 × 120 cm and "works in progress" plates at 60 × 80 cm
- Custom shapes cut to size: round, oval, logo outline
- Outdoor finishes: eyelets, drill holes, protected edges, anti-UV laminate
- On-site installation: battens, stakes, brackets or screws depending on the surface
Materials built for the outdoors
A sign exposed to sun, rain and wind leaves no room for compromise. We print with UV-resistant inks on materials treated for outdoor use, so colours don't fade and text stays legible for the whole length of the building project or campaign. Being based in Manciet, between Nogaro and Eauze, lets us approve a design in person, fine-tune a template and come install your signs ourselves, straight and facing the road. For your site signage, our guide on site hoarding requirements and formats helps you cover everything before printing.
From file to installation, we handle it all
No file ready? Our design studio tidies up your logo and text, then fits it all to the right template. Advertising signs are part of our large-format and signage, with installation offer, alongside banners, totems and window graphics. Tradespeople and construction firms also find all their on-site displays with your printer for tradespeople, from site hoardings to workshop signage. Tell us about your project, its location and how long it needs to last: we'll get back to you with a free quote within 72 hours, tailored to a sign that lasts and gets noticed.
Construction site signs: formats, materials and installation
On a building site, two signs often stand side by side: the sign displaying the planning permission, whose content is set by regulations, and the contractor's sign, which presents the project and the companies involved. We print both, as a one-off or as a series for several sites, with a proof to approve before printing.
- Common sizes: 80 × 120 cm for the site sign, 60 × 80 cm for the « work in progress » plate, and any custom size
- Akilux for a site lasting a few months, Dibond for a sign that has to stay immaculate for years
- Printing with UV-resistant inks, anti-UV lamination as a finish
- Eyelets, drill holes or protected edges depending on how it will be fixed
- Installation on battens, stakes, cable ties or screws in the Gers and the Landes; delivery anywhere in France
What the sign must display cannot be improvised, and we do not write this information for you: our article Construction Site Signs: Mandatory Information, Formats and Materials sets it out. You send us the content and we lay it out clearly. Standard models can also be ordered directly from the online shop: site board and planning permission board.

Frequently asked questions
Advertising Signs: your questions
How long does it take to produce an advertising sign?
It all starts with a free quote sent within 72 hours. Production is then mainly carried out on site (94% in 2024-2025), which lets us keep tight control over lead times; we'll work out the installation date together based on your project.
Can you print a single sign or a small quantity?
Yes. With digital printing and no plates, we produce a single sign just as easily as a small series. A few site hoardings or a single company plate: we adapt to your volume, under the Made in Occitania label.
What sign formats and materials do you offer?
Akilux (corrugated PVC), Dibond (aluminium composite) and Forex (expanded PVC), from 60 × 80 cm up to large format, with shape-cutting available. We choose the material together based on the use, exposure and desired lifespan.
Do I need to supply a print-ready file?
Not necessarily. Our in-house design studio creates or tidies up your visual and text, then sends you a proof to approve before production, for a result that's true to your colours.
What size should a construction site sign be?
We commonly print the site sign at 80 × 120 cm and the « work in progress » plate at 60 × 80 cm, as well as any custom size. The sizes and information required for displaying planning permission are set out in our article on construction site signs.
Which material should I choose for a construction site sign?
Akilux, light and economical, suits a site lasting a few months; Dibond, which is rigid, keeps an immaculate finish for years. Both are printed with UV-resistant inks.
Do you install the sign on site?
Yes, in the Gers and the Landes: fixed on battens, stakes, cable ties or screws depending on the support, straight and facing the public road. Elsewhere, we deliver the sign ready to install, anywhere in France.
