60-seconds with Octink

The firm was founded in 1962 as Allsignsgroup, supplying signage to the oil industry before developing a specialism in the construction sector. A re-brand to Octink in 2009, using the image of an octopus to signify intelligent thinking, boldness and adaptability, reinforced the company’s new direction. The firm has just revamped its website, “reflecting our future potential in a very clear way!”
