EMC Signs

ELECTRONIC MESSAGING CENTER (EMC) SIGNS

Electronic Messaging Centers (EMCs) are the ultimate attention-grabbers, offering a dynamic way to showcase your business, products, services, or events. From sleek, monochrome text to vibrant, full- color graphics and images, these digital LED displays are incredibly versatile and can be used in countless ways. Whether mounted on a wall, integrated into a monument or pylon sign, or projected like a Blade sign, EMCs are designed to make a statement.

They’re perfect for everything from schools promoting upcoming events to stadiums displaying live game scores along with eye-catching, interactive graphics that engage the crowd. Not only are EMCs informative, but they’re also visually stunning, bringing beauty and flair to any space!

The primary cost drivers for an EMC are the pixel pitch and the size of the EMC. Have a look at the infographic below to learn a bit more about pixel pitch and how it can drive cost. When comparing EMCs from different manufacturers, the size of the EMC usually is measured in feet and also in the resolution (how many pixels there are along the vertical and horizontal sides).

When budgeting for an EMC, expect prices to start around $20,000 and go up from there. As an example, a single-sided message center that is 3 feet tall by about 8 feet wide with a 120 x 330 resolution and an 8mm pixel pitch will cost around $40,000. This doesn’t include the price of the sign that the EMC will mount on (have a look at the section on Monument signs for more information).

While potentially expensive, EMCs provide the flexibility to adjust your branding or other content quickly and easily and they are a great option for businesses with a lot to say.
