At 160×288 cm and nearly 4.6 square metres, this P8 outdoor LED message sign is perfectly readable from 15–20 metres or more, which makes it our most affordable answer for a large surface, for factories and large sites. The panel runs at over 4,200 cd/m² with automatic brightness control. The 100,000-hour service life guarantees more than 10 years of continuous operation, with inspected LED chips from a single production batch. Our own service backing and modules held in stock provide a fast repair, from the front and without dismantling the wall. The price sets out the panel, the support structure – which at this size we always size individually – the control system and the installation separately.
Outdoor full-colour LED message sign 160×288 cm (P8)
The 160×288 cm P8 panel offers the best value for money through the combination of a large surface and the sparsest pixel layout, for anyone who needs a large advertising surface clearly visible from a distance. The display of nearly 4.6 square metres gives ample room for a clearly recognisable logo and a short message in large lettering, while the P8 pixel pitch stays perfectly sharp from a long distance, from as far as 15–20 metres. The robust, outdoor-designed build ensures long-term, maintenance-free operation. On a surface this size, correctly sizing the support structure and the power supply matters at least as much as the panel itself – and we always do that as part of the site survey.

The greatest impact at the best price
For businesses that want a large advertising surface recognisable from a distance at the best possible price, the 160×288 cm P8 panel is the ideal choice in our range. The large surface gives ample room for a clearly visible logo and a short, punchy strapline in large lettering, which stays clearly readable from as far as 15–20 metres or more. Because at that viewing distance the sparse pixel layout is no drawback compared with the denser layouts, this combination allows a significant saving while the size and brightness of the display fall short of the more expensive versions in no way at all. It is expressly recommended for factories, logistics centres and premises beside busy main roads.
A long-life solution designed for industrial loads
The panel's aluminium housing and IP65-rated front film run dependably for years in demanding, dusty or wet environments, with minimal maintenance. The high brightness ensures good visibility in direct sunlight, and the automatic brightness control reduces the intensity at night, cutting both light pollution and energy consumption. The refresh rate above 2,880 Hz gives a flicker-free image, comfortable to take in even for drivers passing at speed. Wi-Fi control and the mobile app allow the content to be refreshed remotely, and the timer function automates the daily operating hours, cutting running costs further.
Why the most affordable option is not cheap throwaway import
The lower price of the P8 pixel pitch comes not from the quality but from the greater pixel distance – the LED chip fitted comes from the same named manufacturer and the same batch as in its more expensive siblings. Every panel goes through incoming quality control before we despatch it. The 100,000-hour service life covers 10–12 years of operation with no loss of brightness, given proper calibration. On a surface this size, individual sizing of the support structure and the power supply is always part of the site survey, so that the investment serves for the long term with no need for maintenance.
Consumption and handling on a large surface
Actual consumption with mixed content is typically around 190–270 W/m², which the automatic brightness control reduces further at night. Control through the mobile app is exactly as simple as on a smaller display – if you can write an email, you can handle this. Personal training is part of the handover, so that you can manage day-to-day operation confidently, with no outside help.
Typical applications
Outdoor full-colour LED message sign 160×288 cm (P8) — frequently asked questions
Why is this the best value-for-money combination for a large surface?
Pairing the large size with the sparsest P8 pixel layout gives the lowest price per square metre, while from a long distance the content stays just as striking and legible.
What kind of premises is this size and pixel pitch best suited to?
Primarily factories, logistics centres, wholesalers and premises beside busy main roads and motorways.
Does this large panel require special fixing?
Yes. Because of the size and weight we always survey the load-bearing capacity of the support structure and the fixing points as part of the site survey, and our own engineers design them.
What is the warranty, and who repairs it if something fails?
We provide a full warranty, and because of our service backing and the modules held in stock the repair is carried out from the front, on site, typically within days.
Can this system be extended later with further panels?
Yes. Thanks to the modular build the wall can be extended afterwards, if the site or the requirement grows over time.
Is there a free site survey before an industrial investment this large too?
Yes. We always carry out a free, no-obligation survey, which at this size is particularly important for planning the support structure and the power supply correctly.
