Mint launch social distancing health and safety graphics and supporting educational resources developed specifically for primary schools.
Parents and teaching staff alike are asking the same question. How will we preserve the health and safety of our children and colleagues as society takes it’s tentative first steps on the road to the resuming of normal everyday life?
We have developed a set of primary school focused floor graphics to help teaching staff educate children in social distancing measures in a fun, engaging and relatable way. With the easily understandable message of ‘stay safe… stay 5 cats apart’. We are also providing each school with access to an online toolkit resource of files containing individual graphics for each of our lovely monsters, to use for teaching and lesson plans to help schools build their own individual programme of health and safety, ready for when the children return to school. We are also on hand to help with any other items to support school’s social distancing programmes, such as pull-up banners, wall graphics, direction arrows, ‘5 cats’ distance measure graphics and hand sanitising stations, all of which are branded with one of our monsters and individual message.
1 set of 6 floor graphics – 500x500mm self adhesive floor grade durable, waterproof graphics with slip resistant textured finish. £85
2 sets of 6 floor graphics – 500x500mm self adhesive floor grade durable, waterproof graphics with slip resistant textured finish. £149

Looking for a design partner for your exhibition and events…
Author: Andy
Whilst the current crisis has seen projects that we have been working on for exhibitions and events across the globe cancelled or postponed, we thought that we would share one that happened earlier in the year for a new and exciting client, Titus Learning. Titus Learning are an award-winning provider of Learning Management Systems for workplace learning and training, for education and companies around the world. Our brief was to design an engaging stand solution that not only knitted with the fabric of their brand, but mirrored their modern dynamic as a business and leader in their industry. Our solution focussed around a full height and full width back wall light-box, creating a high impact and engaging experience. Branded light-box cubes, lit in corporate colours to create an informal presentation area. Along with a greeting desk and more formal meeting areas. Resulting in a successful event.
If you are looking for a design partner for your exhibition or event, we are experienced in working with clients to create visually engaging and experience driven exhibition stands and display solutions, digital or printed. And global event marketing – developing cohesive branding, advertising, promotion, signage, stands, spaces and collateral for your event, conference, congress or trade show.

What a nice surprise today when I opened a strange shaped box to find a bottle of something nice to congratulate on my work anniversary, from the fabulous Vanisha and Jodie at Boult Wade Tennant. It’s hard to believe where the last 20 years have gone (or that i’m even old enough!!!) It’s now been 9 years of working with Boult Wade Tennant and the talented marketing team. Thanks so much you are both so thoughtful.

Mint® Awarded 2020 World Heart Day contract for third year…
Author: Andy
We are proud to announce that Mint have been awarded the contract for World Heart Day 2020 for the third year running.
World Heart Day is a global event celebrated by an estimated 2 billion people every year on 29 September. Created by the World Heart Federation, World Heart Day informs people around the globe that CVD, including heart disease and stroke, is the world’s leading cause of death claiming 17.9 million lives each year, and highlights the actions that individuals can take to prevent and control CVD. It aims to drive action to educate people that by controlling risk factors such as tobacco use, unhealthy diet and physical inactivity, at least 80% of premature deaths from heart disease and stroke could be avoided.
World Heart Day is a global campaign during which individuals, families, communities, and governments around the world participate in activities to take charge of their heart health and that of others. Through this campaign, the World Heart Federation unites people from all countries and backgrounds in the fight against the CVD burden and inspires and drives international action to encourage heart-healthy living across the world.
Mint have been proudly providing creative solutions and services across the World Heart Federation’s organisation since 2014, but in 2018 and 2019 were awarded the contract to deliver campaign materials supporting and promoting the event, translated across 42 languages. Including multiple posters for print and digital display, marketing for social media, Facebook and Twitter, online and email banners, translated logo artwork and infographics, in total over 2000 pieces of artwork were created for World Heart Day 2019’s online resource.
We have enjoyed the opportunity, and sometimes typographic challenge, presented by working with some of the world’s most unique letterforms. But come 29 September this project carries a great deal of satisfaction and pride for us.
