Purchased and put into use by a number of major brewers, Carmanah’s LED-illuminated ice tubs create a unique point-of-purchase display that is both eye-catching and functional. The perfect compliment to any bar or tabletop, these beverage serving bins chill bottles or cans while drawing attention to the brand with crisp, LED edge-lighting. In addition to both on and off-premise promotions, the tubs are used for sampling, and special and corporate events. With a removable high-strength polycarbonate food grade tub, Carmanah’s LED illuminated ice tubs can be easily refilled to continuously compliment and enhance brands and promotions.

Carmanah’s proprietary computerized engraving and laser-etching techniques have the ability to take even the most intricate logos and engrave them onto custom, illuminated signs and surfaces. Using Carmanah’s LED edge-lighting technology a colored glow is created that illuminates the logo, the ice and the edges of the stand.

Carmanah’s LED illuminated ice tubs are ideal for club and bar environments where a glowing, but subtle illuminated solution is desirable. Virtually indestructible, LEDs are also maintenance free for up to 10 years and generate negligible heat, which leads to additional energy cost savings.

For more than a decade, Carmanah’s innovative, custom illumination and visual identity solutions have been helping clients throughout North America and around the world distinguish and increase brand presence in the marketplace. The Carmanah Sign Group now has more than 50,000 LED edge-lit signs installed worldwide.
