The company’s focus now includes helping US businesses
SplashMaps® uses mapping data from partners like Ordinance Survey, A to Z and Harvey Maps in the UK to make unique, versatile fabric maps for clients as diverse as Lush (the ethical cosmetic brand), the Scouts and the Scientific Exploration Society. Following its success with this approach in the UK outdoors and gift markets, the company’s focus now includes helping US businesses increase profits from their existing content too.

Boost their current sales beyond paper maps
“We aim to show potential US partners the benefits of marrying their content, be they maps or detailed art, with our expertise in fine printing maps on fabric,” says SplashMaps® MD David Overton. “We’d like to help boost their current sales beyond paper maps by offering another revenue stream; our highly practical weather-proof, washable, wearable range of fabric maps – which don’t need folding, batteries or a signal!” David concludes, “Two thirds of our export sales are to the US, which demonstrates an appetite for fabric maps and with the right partners we see huge potential for US sales.”
Bold new partner products and latest in-house designs
