The #1 Electronic Message CenterS in Northeast Ohio
What are Electronic Message CenterS?
Electronic Message Centers (EMCs) are digital signs that use LED technology to display changing text, images, animations, or videos. These dynamic displays allow businesses and organizations to update their messages in real-time, capturing attention and increasing engagement. EMCs are often integrated into monument, pylon, or wall signs and are a powerful upgrade from traditional static signage.
Uses for Electronic Message CenterS
EMCs are incredibly versatile and used throughout Northeast Ohio to share timely, relevant messages:
Retail & Restaurants: Promote sales, daily specials, and limited-time offers with eye-catching animations and changing text.
Schools & Universities: Share announcements, event schedules, or emergency updates with students, parents, and staff.
Churches & Community Centers: Post service times, inspirational messages, or upcoming events to engage passersby.
City & Government Buildings: Provide public service announcements, road alerts, or community news.
Healthcare & Clinics: Communicate safety protocols, visiting hours, or service changes instantly.
With easy-to-use software, these signs can be updated on the fly—making them ideal for any organization with changing content.
Types of Electronic Message CenterS
Akers Signs offers a range of EMC options to suit your location, budget, and communication goals:
Monochrome EMCs: Display bold messages in a single color like amber or red—ideal for essential updates at a lower cost.
Full-Color EMCs: Showcase vibrant images, logos, and even video clips for maximum engagement.
Integrated EMCs: Add an electronic display to a monument or pylon sign to combine brand identity with changeable messaging.
Outdoor EMCs: Built for visibility in sunlight and harsh weather, with durable, weatherproof enclosures.
Indoor EMCs: Great for lobbies, auditoriums, or trade show displays where information needs to be updated frequently and clearly.
