EcoVista delivers the goods with digital signage upgrade to East Kilbride shopping centre in Scotland

EcoVista, a specialist in large format LED and digital signage displays, has partnered with retail media firm Limited Space on an upgrade project at East Kilbride shopping centre, Scotland’s largest undercover shopping and leisure destination. 

The project is part of Limited Space's Orbit network - pitched as the UK’s most extensive large format digital signage network within malls - designed to modernise advertising assets, enhance visual engagement and elevate the shopper experience.

The upgrade includes a combination of digital kiosks and a large format LED display, integrated into the centre’s architecture. To meet sustainability goals, the installation used recycled materials and locally manufactured components.

It was carried out during out-of-hours periods to ensure minimal disruption to shoppers and tenants. A key challenge was positioning the large format LED screen under a glass atrium, requiring a high brightness display to maintain visibility even in direct sunlight.

EcoVista provided a full turnkey solution, overseeing the entire process from design and fabrication to installation and commissioning. At the core of the upgrade were 11 Vista6ix kiosks, EcoVista’s proprietary digital six-sheet kiosk product, each equipped with a 75-inch Samsung display. These included nine double sided and two single sided units, which were strategically positioned throughout the shopping centre to optimise visibility and engagement.

The centrepiece of the installation was a 5x3 metre Absen K-Series LED display with a 3.9mm pixel pitch, designed to deliver vivid, high resolution visuals even in high ambient lighting conditions.

Dave Neale, Managing Partner at EcoVista, comments: “The East Kilbride Shopping Centre project is another example of how we help OOH media clients and landlords implement high quality digital assets efficiently and within budget.”

“Our team delivered multiple bespoke 75-inch digital kiosks and a stunning 3.9mm LED display, ensuring a seamless integration with the centre’s architecture. A huge thank you to our long standing client, Limited Space, for trusting us with another key DOOH deployment.”

2025 RTIH INNOVATION AWARDS

Digital solutions will be a key focus area at the 2025 RTIH Innovation Awards.

The awards. which will open for entries in March, celebrate global tech innovation in a fast moving omnichannel world.

Our 2024 hall of fame entrants were revealed during an event which took place at RIBA’s 66 Portland Place HQ in Central London on 21st November, and consisted of a drinks reception, three course meal, and awards ceremony presided over by comedian Lucy Porter.

In his welcome speech, Scott Thompson, Founder and Editor, RTIH, said: “The event is now into its sixth year and what a journey it has been. The awards started life as an online only affair during the Covid outbreak, before launching as a small scale in real life event and growing year on year to the point where we’re now selling out this fine, historic venue.”

He added: “Congratulations to all of our finalists. Many submissions did not make it through to the final stage, and getting to this point is no mean feat. Checkout-free stores, automated supply chains, immersive experiences, on-demand delivery, next generation loyalty offerings, inclusive retail, green technology. We’ve got all the cool stuff covered this evening.”

“But just importantly we’ve got lots of great examples of companies taking innovative tech and making it usable in everyday operations - resulting in more efficiency and profitability in all areas.”

Congratulations to our 2024 winners, and a big thank you to our sponsors, judging panel, the legend that is Lucy Porter, and all those who attended November's gathering.
