Our story

The story behind Brands On began in the early fifties. A company called SEPIA was established to install illuminated signs and outline lighting as high-visibility marketing materials at petrol stations. The company delved deeper into marketing products, services and solutions, eventually splitting to create two separate entities.

SEPIA solutions focuses on providing a range of marketing services and solutions that optimise brand visibility and brand experience at the point of sale and at events.

SEPIA products put the focus on quality products that raise brand visibility and brand familiarity. Recently, SEPIA products had a change of name. We are now known as Brands On. We are at your service with the benefit of over 60 years of knowledge and experience.

Brands On develops products that increase brand visibility. They are tailored to your unique and specific needs, presenting your brand values for a powerful and targeted effect.

We are best known for parasols, sign solutions and different types of LED displays. And no wonder: our clients include international retail brands, restaurants and cafes, and of course, hotels. You’ve most likely seen our work before, without even realising where it came from.

When you work with Brands On, you work with a partner that thinks with you to implement your marketing strategies in the best way possible. We believe in co-creating your branded products.

Your input is important to ensure your branded product does exactly what you want it to do and has the effect you want it to have.

Brands On specialises in creating and producing parasols, signs and displays, always with corporate social responsibility in mind.

This means that at our office and our different production locations in China and in South Africa (Tradewinds), we act in ways that embrace:

• the environment;
• ethical behaviour;
• sustainable procurement;

We also have a duty to turn potentially negative impact on the world into positive influences. We achieve this through:

• creating a work environment that is pleasant, positive and enjoyable for us, our staff members and any partners;
• showing zero tolerance for child labour;
• producing sustainable products;
• extending the lifetime of our products by offering product care and maintenance services;
• investing in long-term partnerships;
