Project Overview

In 2019, COSUN SIGN supplied custom restaurant signage and displays for multiple Burger King locations in China and overseas. The project required consistent brand presentation across locations, strong nighttime visibility for storefront and drive-thru signs, weather-resistant construction for humid and coastal environments, energy-efficient lighting, easier maintenance, and production schedules aligned with store openings.

COSUN SIGN manufactured and delivered illuminated channel letters, backlit light boxes and menu boards, optional digital menu displays, pylon and totem signs, drive-thru wayfinding signs, window graphics, and mounting accessories. This coordinated package of restaurant signage and displays covered storefront identification, menu communication, promotional display, vehicle guidance, and future signage reordering.

The Challenge: Maintaining Brand Consistency Across Different Restaurant Locations

Burger King needed a coordinated restaurant signage design that could present a recognizable brand identity across different locations while meeting the practical requirements of exterior, interior, menu, promotional, and drive-thru applications.

The restaurant signage design needed to address several requirements across different locations:

• Maintaining consistent Burger King logos, colors, proportions, and illumination across locations;
• Providing clear nighttime visibility for street-facing and drive-thru signs;
• Using durable materials suitable for coastal, humid, and outdoor environments;
• Reducing unnecessary power use through energy-efficient LED lighting;
• Making frequently used components easier to inspect, maintain, and replace;
• Coordinating production and delivery with restaurant opening schedules;
• Supporting repeat orders for future restaurant projects.

The Solution: An Integrated Signage Package for Burger King Restaurants

We manufactured and delivered coordinated signage for restaurant interiors, storefronts, roadside areas, promotional zones, and drive-thru routes. Each product addressed a specific customer touchpoint while following the same Burger King brand standards.

Illuminated Channel Letters for Restaurant Exterior Signage

We produced precision-formed three-dimensional channel letters with uniform face illumination for Burger King storefronts and building facades. As a key part of the restaurant exterior signage, the illuminated letters helped customers identify the restaurant from surrounding streets and pedestrian routes.

The illuminated letters were designed to provide the following:

• Clear brand identification from surrounding streets and pedestrian areas;
• Consistent logo proportions and brand colors;
• Uniform lighting across the letter faces;
• Strong visibility during both daytime and nighttime operation.

Backlit Light Boxes and Menu Boards for Restaurant Interior Signage

Backlit light boxes and illuminated menu boards were supplied as restaurant interior signage for menu communication, promotional graphics, brand presentation, and customer-facing display areas. Selected light boxes were also used on exterior facades where required.

These products provided the following:

• High-brightness, evenly distributed illumination;
• Clear presentation of menus and promotional graphics;
• Brand-consistent colors and artwork;
• Structures designed to support more convenient artwork replacement.

Optional Digital Restaurant Signage and Menu Displays

Where required by the restaurant configuration, COSUN SIGN supplied digital restaurant signage, including commercial-grade menu displays and media players for dynamic menu presentation and promotional content.

These digital menu displays allowed approved menus, product information, and promotional campaigns to be presented through screens rather than relying only on fixed printed graphics. The final screen, media player, content format, and control configuration depended on the requirements of each Burger King location.

Pylon and Totem Signs for Roadside Visibility

Tall pylon and totem signs were used as outdoor restaurant signage to strengthen Burger King’s roadside presence and help drivers identify restaurant and drive-thru entrances.

These signs supported:

• Long-distance restaurant identification;
• Brand visibility along vehicle routes;
• Entrance and drive-thru recognition;
• Coordinated presentation of the Burger King logo and directional information.

Drive-Thru Directional and Wayfinding Signs

We supplied reflective and illuminated drive-thru signage to guide vehicles through entrances, ordering points, collection areas, and exit routes.

The drive-thru signage package included clear directional information intended to:

• Identify the drive-thru entrance;
• Guide vehicles toward ordering and collection points;
• Clarify traffic direction during busy periods;
• Reduce confusion between customer, parking, and service routes.

Window Graphics and Vinyl Displays

Brand-compliant window graphics and vinyl films were supplied for seasonal promotions, visual branding, and privacy requirements.

These graphics allowed restaurant locations to display campaign content while maintaining a visual connection with the wider Burger King signage system.

Mounting Systems and Accessories

We also supplied supporting components required by the signage products, including:

• Custom mounting brackets;
• Weatherproof seals;
• Tamper-resistant fastenings;
• Product-specific mounting accessories.

These components were selected according to the sign structure, mounting interface, and intended operating environment.

Materials and Technical Configuration

The Burger King signage package used materials and components selected for commercial restaurant environments and outdoor exposure.

Corrosion-Resistant Metal Construction

Sign housings were manufactured with corrosion-resistant aluminum and stainless-steel fixings to support long-term use in humid, coastal, and outdoor conditions.

Acrylic Faces and Exterior Films

High-grade acrylic faces and 3M exterior films were used to maintain clear color presentation and improve resistance to ultraviolet fading.

Energy-Efficient LED Lighting

The illuminated signs used energy-efficient LED modules with constant-current drivers. This configuration supported uniform illumination and stable lighting performance across channel letters, light boxes, and menu displays.

Outdoor Protection

IP65-rated fixtures were used where required for wet or outdoor exposure. The protection level depended on the location and confirmed product configuration.

Modular Construction

Selected signage products used modular construction to make on-site inspection, component access, maintenance, and replacement more manageable.

The Result: A Coordinated Signage System for Multiple Burger King Locations

We delivered a coordinated signage package covering the main identification, communication, promotion, and navigation requirements of Burger King restaurant locations in China and overseas.

The completed project included:

• Storefront and facade brand identification;
• Illuminated menu and promotional displays;
• Optional digital menu communication;
• Roadside pylon and totem identification;
• Drive-thru traffic guidance;
• Seasonal window graphics;
• Product-specific mounting components;
• Documentation supporting future signage reorders.
• By coordinating these products as one integrated system, we supported a more consistent Burger King brand presentation across exterior, interior, roadside, and drive-thru applications.

After-Sales and Repeat-Order Support

We provide follow-up support for Burger King signage projects, including:

• Spare parts supply
• Troubleshooting assistance
• Periodic maintenance guidance and support packages
• Replacement component support
• Files and documentation for signage reordering

Keeping the relevant product and order documentation helps shorten the preparation process for replacement signs and future restaurant projects.
