At Modulex, our commitment to sustainability and innovation has led to the development of Compact, our latest sustainable wayfinding signage solution. We recently spoke with Sonia Cortés Lefranc, Customer Service Area Manager, Partner Division, at the Modulex factory in Billund, Denmark, to learn more about this groundbreaking product and its benefits.

The Inspiration Behind Compact

The idea behind Compact was driven by our ongoing efforts to enhance our sustainable signage solutions. Sonia explains, “Compact is an evolution of Etronit, enhanced with fire-retardant capabilities. Our goal is to be the most sustainable signage manufacturer in the world. By developing an improved version of our high-pressure laminate, we can offer a product that meets the highest quality standards while promoting sustainability.”

Eco-Friendly Features and Materials

Compact is crafted from recycled wood and paper fibres sourced from certified sustainable forests. “The material is durable and suitable for interior and exterior environments,” Sonia notes. “Whether you’re dealing with the humid conditions of the Caribbean or the cold winters of Canada, Compact stands up to all weather conditions.” This sustainable approach not only ensures long-lasting signage but also supports environmental conservation.

Maintaining Visual Appeal

One of Compact’s standout features is its ability to maintain visual appeal through rigorous quality control. “Our process ensures that the paints we use are perfectly matched to the inks, resulting in a flawless finish,” says Sonia. This meticulous attention to detail allows us to offer a 10-year warranty on Compact signage, ensuring it remains visually appealing and durable for years to come.”

Versatility Across Sectors

Compact’s versatility makes it an excellent choice for various industry sectors. Sonia highlights its benefits in the hospitality sector: “Compact is ideal for projects requiring many panels and quick, cost-effective installations. Its adaptability allows for custom shapes and sizes, making it suitable for schools, safety signage, and many more”.

Wayfinding Excellence

When it comes to wayfinding, Compact offers precise and durable signage options. “Compact signage is perfect for any project that needs to comply with ADA standards,” Sonia explains. “Its versatility allows for a range of sign types, from unit IDs to restroom signs, making it a natural choice for projects requiring reliability and quality.”

Compact is more than just a signage solution; it represents our commitment to sustainability, quality, and innovation. By choosing Compact, you invest in a product that meets your wayfinding needs while supporting a greener future.
