Fabricator of custom aluminium frame solutions for the graphics and signage industry, Spirit Displays, has merged with RTD Systems.
The merger includes partnering with Octanorm Vertriebs through an exclusive licencing agreement for the production and sale of Octanorm products in the UK and Ireland.
Founded over 19 years ago, Spirit Displays specialises in tailor-made solutions and is a family-run business with over 20 employees based in its manufacturing facility in West Sussex.
Alistair Weight, director of Spirit Displays describes the merger as “an exciting chapter” in the business’ 19-year history.
“We see growth potential for our business in the exhibition, event, and experiential sector,” he says, adding: “The Octanorm solution brings a huge range of profiles, accessories, system-based products, and creative opportunities to enable us to move in this direction.”
In March 2023, Alan Sheridan, owner of RTD Systems will retire but remain in a consulting position to ensure a smooth transition.
Sheridan comments: “The experienced Octanorm UK team will continue in their existing roles, as part of the wider Spirit Displays organisation, and continue supporting our valued customers with high quality products, an eco-conscious approach, and excellent customer service.”
Octanorm has been developing products for the exhibition construction, interior design, presentation, and cleanroom sectors for over 50 years.
Weight adds: “There is great synergy between the two businesses with our combined knowledge of aluminium design and processing. This opportunity increases scope for even more solutions in retail and commercial graphics and structures.”
