Rota, promotions, advice.
The slip in the window with the out-of-hours rota is swapped every week, often corrected by hand. It is the most-read surface of the pharmacy — and the worst designed. Digitally it always shows the current date, without anyone having to remember.
Two surfaces, two jobs.
In a pharmacy displays work in two places with quite different purposes: in the window for the street, in the waiting area for the people already inside. Both need different content and a different pace.
Always the right date
Rota dates are fixed in advance — entered once, the display switches automatically on the day. No slip of paper, no handwritten correction.
Hay fever, flu, travel time
Seasonal topics sit ready as sets and are activated on the day. What otherwise gathers dust as a cardboard stand runs on the same surface.
Time that passes anyway
Whoever waits for a prescription looks up. Pointers to vaccination advice, blood-pressure checks or the delivery service reach people who already brought trust with them.
Calm, not an advertising screen
A pharmacy is not an electronics store. We work with slow transitions and quiet typography — the surface informs without shouting over the room.
The window keeps working
At night the rota and opening hours are the single most important piece of information. Dimmed, clearly legible, without dazzling the neighbourhood.
No more cardboard stands
Manufacturer display material arrives printed, out of date and rarely matches the interior. Digitally you use the same motifs without the storage space.
The window is the out-of-hours notice.
Unlike in retail, the surface in a pharmacy has to work at night — when somebody with an urgent need is standing in front of it wanting to know where the nearest open pharmacy is.
- Legible at night, not dazzling — automatic dimming by daylight so the surface does not overpower in the dark.
- From 700 cd/m² for covered locations, from 1,500 with direct sun on the window front.
- Portrait is usually the better choice in narrow pharmacy windows and leaves room for the rota list.
- Burn-in protection for standing content such as opening hours and the logo.
From slip of paper to surface.
For a standard setup we plan one to two weeks from your first message to live operation.
We look at window and dispensary
Window front, sight line from the street, waiting area, lighting. Number, format and brightness follow from that.
The content gets built
Rota, opening hours, seasonal sets and pointers to your own services — in a layout that matches the interior rather than working against it.
Installation
Displays come from stock, our team mounts and calibrates. In the window with a made-to-measure mount, in the waiting area discreetly wired.
Handover and operation
Your team maintains rota and promotions itself. Recurring content runs automatically, monitoring stays with us.
What it costs.
You buy the displays once, the software runs as a monthly licence per display. The concrete quote follows the briefing — these figures give you the order of magnitude.
