The Weldmaster takes over State Street!

Summer in the city may never be the same.

Just few steps away from theater and music productions at the Goodman Theatre, Oriental Theatre and Chicago Theatre, ER2 Image Group (Formerly Bloomingdale Signs by Tomorrow) is launching a giant production of its own on State Street with an engagement that runs all summer long.

Color Jam 2012 is an outdoor public art installation that will fill an entire State Street intersection with colorful displays from artist Jessica Stockholder.

Since part of that display involves welding together gigantic sections of banner that are going into production right now, there was no doubt that we had to bring in the big guns – as in our Miller Weldmaster 112 Extreme.

If ever there was a machine born for this very kind of job, the Weldmaster 112 Extreme fits the bill perfectly. In just one pass, it can weld together massive banners and panels. And the quality of the work in sealing is so phenomenal, the seams between these pieces are almost invisible.

For a look at how the Weldmaster makes this happen on the Color Jam project, watch this video.

If you’re in the neighborhood of State Street in late May, come by and watch us install the kind of display that’s sure to turn heads all summer long. It’s one we’ll certainly never forget.
If you have an upcoming project that requires you to cover a very large area – even if it’s not as large as a city intersection – let’s talk more about it. It might just call for the Weldmaster and the masters of branding bigger at Bloomingdale Signs. Give us a call at 630.980.4567.
