Turnkey solutions for out of home advertising
Why deal with multiple providers when we can take care of everything you need to get your OOH digital screens up and running – and keep them that way?
Unlike other suppliers that only provide selected services, Astra Digital’s extensive team can complete the whole scope of work, including groundworks, fabrication and assembly, commissioning and maintenance.
In addition, our specialised assembly centre means we can maximise quality and save time on site by pre-building, assembling and configuring anything from a simple outdoor digital 6 sheet to D48s, Mega6s, special builds or even a D96 outdoor LED screen in our controlled environment before installation.
Digital outdoor signage offers a versatile solution for a multitude of applications. Here are some of the most effective ways businesses and organizations are leveraging this technology:
- Advertising & Brand Building: Make a lasting impression with high-definition visuals that command attention. Display compelling advertisements, showcase your brand identity, and run targeted campaigns that reach your desired demographic in high-traffic areas. Imagine your latest product launch displayed in stunning clarity on a busy roadside or in a bustling city center.
- Retail & Point-of-Sale: Drive foot traffic and increase sales by showcasing promotions, new arrivals, and dynamic pricing right where purchasing decisions are made. Entice passersby with eye-catching content and instantly update offers to maximize impact. Think of a restaurant displaying daily specials or a retail store advertising limited-time discounts.
- Wayfinding & Information: Provide clear and up-to-date information to guide visitors in shopping centers, transportation hubs, campuses, and tourist attractions. Display interactive maps, real-time schedules, and important announcements, enhancing user experience and reducing confusion. Consider digital directories in a large mall or flight information displays at an airport.
- Public Information & Community Engagement: Deliver vital public service announcements, emergency alerts, and community news effectively. Keep citizens informed about local events, traffic updates, and important safety guidelines. Picture a town square displaying upcoming festivals or public health messages.
- Entertainment & Events: Create immersive experiences at concerts, sporting events, and festivals with dynamic video displays. Showcase live feeds, sponsor messages, and engaging visuals to enhance the atmosphere and captivate audiences. Envision large screens at a stadium displaying live action replays or concert visuals.
Corporate Communications: Enhance internal communications by displaying company news, employee recognition, and performance updates in outdoor corporate campuses or near office buildings. Foster a sense of community and keep your workforce informed. Think of a large corporation displaying its mission statement or celebrating employee achievements.
Proactive Digital OOH maintenance to maximise availability
Everything we do is designed to maximise the availability of your digital estate. We understand that even small delays can compromise your charge-out period and have an outstanding reputation for delivering to deadline. We also reduce reactive callouts and compensation events with our proactive approach to servicing and maintenance. By improving your estate with routine replacements, asset upgrades and changes to networking infrastructure, we prevent faults before they happen.
Our high to low-priority maintenance and service level agreements are designed to provide varying remote and on-site response times for installations that range from mission-critical to low priority. All SLAs are supported using our in-house developed Unity Platform which allows our team to remotely monitor, maintain and manage thousands of assets from our Network Operations Centre.
A safe pair of hands

We operate across the UK and have a network of engineers working from our operations centre and head office in Hyde, project delivery and assembly centre Stalybridge and London operations centre in Byfleet.
With a client list that includes some of the biggest DOOH advertising companies in the industry, our in-house development capabilities also attract challenger brands seeking to disrupt the standard approach to OOH advertising. Thanks to our longstanding relationships with world-leading technology suppliers and manufacturers, we can also assist in arranging finance for media companies looking to grow their asset base.

AV Infrastructure & digital signage software
We know that you need more than just digital displays. We understand the challenges that large venues face and we’re experienced in designing and delivering digital display systems that meet complex communication needs.
Our technology infrastructure service allows venues to create a multipurpose network of connected, but independent, displays – giving you the freedom to share any message, on almost any combination of screens, at any time. With our proprietary monitoring software, Unity, we can remotely monitor your system’s performance to ensure maximum efficiency and up-time and, because we developed the technology ourselves, we can tailor the system to suit your specific needs.
AV integration and The Internet of Things
Working with our manufacturing partners, Astra Digital can design and integrate The Internet of Things into your AV system so that you can collect, understand and make the best use of your venue data.
Whether you need to use decibel volume data to measure occupancy, convert dynamic transport information into wayfinding messages or use Bluetooth information to measure traffic flow and trigger automated announcements, we can deliver the IoT capabilities to make your venue operate more efficiently.
Commercial support
We’ve got the relationships and experience to help you finance your investment and get a financial return from your digital signage.
We work closely with companies that specialise in lease option purchases for the sports and entertainment sectors and are partnered with manufacturers that offer capital finance to our customers. Our close alignment with advertising media agencies means we can provide a bolt-on service to help you generate revenue from your investment – potentially even using this income to fund your installation.
