Who we are

We are a family company Elektro Drapač.

We have been operating in the advertising market since 1990. We offer comprehensive services in signmaking, from the initial design through the technical solution and production to the final installation.

We are the longest-established company in this field in the Czech Republic. Illuminated advertising is our main product, but not our only one. We make promotional elements of all kinds — in various sizes and designs. In short, our technological capabilities allow us to produce even “heavy-duty” advertising, such as giant illuminated pylons and signs with a load-bearing steel structure.

Our History

The year was 1989 and the young couple Drapačov decided to realize their dream, namely to establish their own production company. Although they had nothing more than determination and enthusiasm, Elektro Drapač was founded — a company specializing in electrical installation work.

1989

However, by a fortunate coincidence, the company soon switched to another production solution, which was completely absent from the market at that time, namely the production of luminous and non-luminous markings. The original name, Elektro Drapač, did not have time to change in all the hustle and bustle of the work and was only supplemented by a more specific connection: light advertising.

1992

Orders continued to increase and the company's team also began to grow. However, new production facilities were also needed. Therefore, the old factory in Velké Poříčí, abandoned at that time, in a desolate state, was purchased and gradually reconstructed. New machinery and technology equipment was purchased.

1994

In 1997 Elektro Drapač was already an established company, operating internationally. Therefore, in order to increase credibility for foreign clients, it turns into a limited liability company.

1997

At that time, the firm has over 30 permanent employees and continues to build and expand its production facilities. New halls are gradually being built, such as a new graphics studio, an extension of another production hall and new facilities for the fleet.
In the 2000s we have registered our own patent for the production of light advertising.

2000

We strive to produce a minimal carbon footprint and are constantly improving in that regard. Therefore, in 2016, a photovoltaic power plant is being built. Of course, also because of the reduction of operating costs and the cheapening of end products. We also use the electricity generated to charge our electric cars.

2016

At Elektro Drapač, we value our role in society and are responsible for the environment. At the same time, we decided to do something concrete. We planted an orchard of over 400 trees, which is our little gesture to restore nature.

2018

In 2019 It is added to the company's premises Museum of Light Advertisements. With passion, we return life to forgotten advertisements, capturing the magic it has brought to the streets and cities. Our museum is not only about technology, but about bringing the art of light and non-luminous advertisements closer to all visitors.

2019

The highest possible print quality is crucial for us and our clients. Therefore, in 2022, after a thorough selection process, we acquired a new technology in the form of a latex printer and laminator from Hewlett-Packard. Currently, this is the best technology available to ensure flawless printing for our clients with maximum color durability.

2022

In 2023, we purchased a high-tech 3D printer for use inproduction. This allows us to bring our ideas into three-dimensional realitywith incredible precision and flexibility. Thanks to this technology, we areonce again gaining new design possibilities and increasing productionefficiency.

Museum of Light Advertisements

To celebrate our thirtieth anniversary, we decided that we do not want to leave these wonderful examples of how our craft was done in the past to ourselves and we would like to share them.

And because our company is located next to a busy cycle path, the idea was created to create an outdoor exhibition with labels.

The exhibition is free of charge, it is accessible from a public road, so everyone can see it, at any time of the day or night. A large number of advertisements are, of course, luminous.

Our Approach to Ecology

Taking care of the environment is central to us

In our production area, we largely use solar energy. All production in a year consumes about as much energy as a larger household. Of course, waste sorting and environmental disposal are also a matter of course for us. Our fleet consists of 20% electric vehicles. We strive to produce a minimum carbon footprint and are constantly improving in this regard

Our products are economical

We use high quality LED modules that have low power consumption. Technology is constantly moving forward and we are keeping up with it.
