Digital signage solutions
Clear messages for customers and staff — software, content planning, professional displays and care from one partner.
All about digital signage.
Before buying a digital signage system, form a clear picture of what you want it to achieve. Is the need external communication (marketing) that should attract more customers or sell more? Or is it internal communication, so staff stay up to date on the organisation's key messages?
Once the need is clear, it is easier to integrate the software so it is easy to use, and to choose the right displays for each location. What matters may be the right brightness or operating hours. Screen size also matters.
A correctly sized information display with good content is an effective way to communicate with customers or staff. Integrations help ensure the screens always have interesting, good-looking content that fits the purpose. That is how you can double the effectiveness of your communication.
What to understand before you buy
Content
We deliver digital signage solutions and help you get the most from every display: we plan the content ourselves, or we consult when an agency already produces it.
We've built solutions with partners where AI generates real-time content for traffic, production and other critical processes.
Text, infographics, Power BI data, PDFs, images and video — plus external sources like weather and timetables. Content created with Google's tools links cleanly to displays (Looker Studio, Slides, Docs, Sheets). Bring in video from YouTube or your own storage.
Our digital signage software surfaces Power BI data live across selected displays and groups — finance, sales and customer-facing views, each with its own context. The integration is implemented securely via Microsoft Azure AD; you author reports in Power BI and publish them to chosen displays via the display management system.
Split the screen into zones: the logo in a fixed spot, the rest filled with a lunch menu, bus timetables and ads. In cities, airports and other environments a single surface can combine real-time traffic, weather and advertising.

Price depends on size, environment and service level. Professional panels are built for continuous 24/7 use. As a full package (hardware + software + install + support) the investment is often cheaper than buying the pieces separately.
Digital signage
An information display, or digital signage is a system: management platform, display network and professional-grade displays — information displays, touch screens, outdoor displays, large-format LED or service kiosks. The hardware has to withstand continuous use, suit the ambient light of its environment and be compatible across the network.
Displays sold by Galaxo are tested as part of the wider system. Existing displays can be brought in via a separate media player.
Information displays inform, guide and market in companies, municipalities and public spaces — both internally and externally. They have become a familiar presence in cities, shopping centres and transit hubs.

Effectiveness depends on location, content and design. Get in touch — we'll tailor a solution to your needs.
Interactivity
A touch screen is the interactive form of an information display: the user controls content directly from the surface. The technology is familiar from smartphones and is becoming widespread in the signage world.
Touch makes use intuitive — education, healthcare, retail, trade fairs and wayfinding are typical use cases. Apps and gamified elements bring communication to life.
Two main technologies exist: capacitive (fast, multi-touch, the dominant choice in professional use) and resistive (cheaper, stylus-friendly; rarer today).
Outdoor
Outdoor displays are designed for weather, temperature swings and direct light. Solutions range from wall-mounted units to stands, suspended units and totems. A professional enclosure and IP rating keep the display running through the seasons.
Fan-cooled units and air-conditioned sealed enclosures meet professional IP classes; sizes typically run large. Even bigger surfaces are best built as large-format LED. Resolution is at least Full HD or 4K for close viewing distances. Touch is available as an add-on for many outdoor models.

Modular construction
A large-format LED screen is built from cabinets and modules joined into a seamless surface. Individual modules can be swapped if a fault occurs. The maintenance approach is chosen to fit the venue and budget (rear-only, or front- and rear-serviceable).
The full installation is tailored to the space and use. LED is a major investment — bringing in a professional designer pays back. Poor component choices show up as dead pixels, short lifespan and weak spare-part availability. Regular maintenance extends the lifecycle.
The range also includes magnetic-mount solutions for curved surfaces — perfect for striking LED walls.
Advertising and brand visibility
High-visibility placements for video, image and text — including visibility tied to game-time moments.
Dynamic advertising
Multiple ads during the same event — more value for sponsors.
Co-promotions
Contests and campaigns engage the audience and attract sponsors.
Stats and information
Match stats and player profiles; sponsors can attach their brand to live moments.
Large-format LED can be managed from the same platform as the rest of your displays — digital signage management.

Prevention first
The fixed-price care plan is designed especially for large-format LED. For information displays and other devices we tailor service and support to your needs.
Our large-format LED comes with an optional care plan: a fixed-price package that keeps operations smooth and avoids surprise repair bills. The plan extends the device warranty and includes an annual service with component check and cleaning.
For other devices the manufacturer's warranty applies. Monitoring included with our display management system's Pro tier often catches faults before users even notice them.
Tailored requirements
When buying a display, several factors and features matter so the screen fits the use case and the budget. Weighing them carefully turns a digital signage purchase into a long-lived, high-value investment.
Display size and resolution determine how well the screen suits its purpose. A larger display offers more space for information but may cost more. Resolution drives clarity for image and text — the closer the viewing distance, the higher the resolution needed. Large-format LED has lower pixel density, but images look crisp from a distance.
Lighting drives visibility. Pick a display with the right brightness and contrast for your environment: standard TV brightness is enough for an ordinary room, while shop windows and outdoor sites need significantly more brightness so content reads even in direct sunlight. Brightness is measured in nits — the higher the figure, the brighter the screen. A typical home TV runs around 250 nits; Galaxo's outdoor displays and totems can go into the thousands. For large-format LED, the install location drives the choice — bright sun calls for more output. Most professional displays include automatic brightness adjustment that balances the image to ambient light.
If the display is outdoors, choose a weather- and UV-resistant model. Indoor displays don't survive rain or direct sun. A standard TV is built for indoor use and limited daily hours. For professional use, pick a 24/7-rated display even though it costs more.
Decide what the display is for: advertising, information sharing or interactive use? Plain text doesn't need much; for images and video pick a higher-quality display so colours stay saturated and motion stays smooth. The use case drives size, technology and features.
Make sure the display works with the required software and operating systems so content is easy to update and manage. The most reliable way to build a working network is to source displays and management software from one supplier — Galaxo's displays are tested as part of our digital signage software. Existing displays can usually be brought in via a separate media player.
Display pricing varies with model and feature set. A high-quality display is usually a long-term investment, but the budget needs to be realistic.
Check that the display has the connections you need — HDMI, USB, Ethernet and wireless — so it integrates smoothly with other devices and your network.
Assess how easy management and upkeep are. A clean interface and remote updates save time and effort.
Check the warranty and service availability — they shape long-term reliability and predictability.
Easy-to-use digital signage software
Technology has put display systems within reach of even small organisations. Open communication and timely marketing matter more than ever — the value of information keeps growing. Start with a single screen and scale the network later.
With easy-to-use digital signage solutions you can manage either a wide network or a single display. Our digital signage software supports information displays, touch screens, service kiosks, outdoor displays and large-format LED.
Manage everything from a browser on a phone, tablet or laptop. Bring both new displays and existing devices online via media players. The platform scales from a single screen to broad, custom rollouts.
Each display or display group can have its own view: dedicated information for staff areas; product information, news and ads in customer-facing areas. Schedule displays, build campaigns and weekly calendars by time of day and day of week.
Galaxo develops and maintains its own signage platform — releases and customer-specific needs travel the same path.

FAQ
Ease of use and effortless content control. A strong platform lets you update and remotely manage every screen from one place — without a heavy project for every change.
Longevity is the core: 24/7 panel quality, IPS colour accuracy and nit brightness matched to the environment. Demanding sites also need the right IP rating (dust/water) and IK rating (impact resistance).
Professional components handle heat and continuous operation. The image stays even and the lifespan stays long when the display is on throughout opening hours.
Displays support advertising, brand, announcements, wayfinding and customer service. They complement digital and traditional channels where people move.
