Our Ethos...
The Sign Maker is proud to be a business with a sustainable ethos, without losing our flair for providing high-quality bespoke signs and memorials. From production to product, in addition to caring for our countryside, we lead with an environmental consciousness and general heart for the local wildlife.
This year (2023), we were proud to walk away as the North Devon Business Of The Year (as awarded by Business Action). Previously, we were awarded the 'SME Sustainable Business Excellence Award 2022' by SME News in the Southern Enterprise Awards and celebrated by the North Devon Manufacturing Association with the 'Environmental Project Of The Year Award 2019'.
Our dedication to sustainability is evident in our directors' genuine love for the wildlife, passion for sustainable practice and enthusiasm for researching new methods and materials that further our sustainable range of signage. Our partnerships with The North Devon Biosphere and The Assosiation of Green Funeral Directors enable us to be part of the wider community working toward a more sustainable future, a community we are continuing to build and involve ourselves in.
We are very lucky at The Sign Maker to be situated in the heart of the North Devon Countryside, surrounded by our own land and other farms. Living in the countryside, we believe that we have a responsibility to look after it.
Our aim is to make Yelland Farm a wildlife haven! We are rewarded with hares and deer in the fields and lots of wild birds around the offices and workshops. Best of all for us, are the bees (hence our logo)! It is wonderful to see them buzzing around as, without bees, the countryside would be a very different place so it is important that we make every effort to look after them.
