Serving Kohala → Keauhou on Hawaiʻi’s West Coast
If you’re planning a conference, gala, resort activation, or island event, you need signage and print that stands out, ships on time, and performs in the Hawaiian environment. At Kona Impact, based in Kailua-Kona, we specialise in full-scale event signage and display production—from wide-format printing to precision CNC, laser, and UV printing—serving resorts and venues across the Kohala Coast, Waikōloa, Kona, Keauhou, and beyond.
📞 Call us at (808) 329-6077 or request a quote online to talk about your upcoming event.
Complete In-House Capabilities – We operate wide-format eco-solvent printers, laminators, large-format CNC router tables, laser cutters, CNC plasma torches, and UV flat–bed printers.
Fast Turnarounds for Island Deadlines – We know event timelines are tight. Because all production is local, we reduce the risk of mainland shipping delays and coordinate with the island venue logistics.
Durable for Hawaiʻi Conditions – Whether it’s lobby displays in a resort, trade‐show booth backdrops, or outdoor A-frames on lava rock or turf, we choose materials and finishes that hold up under sun, salt air, and high-traffic usage.
End-to-End Support – From concept and graphic design to production, installation, and breakdown. We handle full-service logistics so you—and your event team—can stay focused on the guest experience.
Serving the West Hawaiʻi Resort Corridor – While based in Kailua-Kona, we routinely service events from the Kohala Coast resorts, Waikōloa Village, through Kona, down to Keauhou.
Large banners, backdrop walls, step-and-repeat walls, floor graphics, and hanging signs—our wide-format eco-solvent printers deliver vibrant, full-color visuals in huge sizes.
Do you need 3D letters, layered logo builds, or custom-cut shapes for your exhibit or resort activation? Our CNC routers and plasma/laser tables give a premium dimensional impact and can match your branding exactly.
From acrylic awards to wood event signage, laser methods give crisp detail and custom finishes—perfect for VIP gifts, signage elements, or display touches.
Direct print to rigid substrates, including wood, acrylic, metal, foam-core, and specialty items such as promotional displays. UV-cured inks give rich colour and durability.
We engineer for your venue (resorts, conference centres, open-air pavilions) and provide mounting options for textured surfaces, frame assemblies, hanging systems, and full breakdown. For multi-day events, we can also coordinate hand-off or onsite support.
Trade-show booths & island-themed kiosks

Vinyl on banner mesh or block-out for high-impact, large spans or outdoor use.
Foam-core / Gatorboard / Coroplast for lightweight temporary signage (ideal for events).
Acrylic / Plexiglas with high-gloss or frosted finishes for premium applications.
HD-Urethane (HDU) or hardwoods for luxury signage elements within resort or VIP lounge settings.
Aluminum composite panels (ACM) for long-run reuse across recurring events.
UV-printed metal or wood panels for on-brand, rich-texture signage.
We’ll help choose materials based on budget, durability needs, and event lifespan.
Project kickoff – Provide event date, venue specs, artwork/logo, install surfaces, and quantity.
Design proofing – We refine artwork, scale mock-ups, and engineer mounting hardware if necessary.
Production – Wide-format print, CNC routing/engraving, finishing (paint, clear coat, dies, grommets, etc.).
Installation or shipping – We coordinate local installation and shipping/setup, depending on venue location and timeline.
Post-event support – We can arrange breakdown and removal of signage after your event. We can also, with your permission, reuse signage (such as recovering Gatorboard and foam core) for local non-profits.
Typical standard event signage is produced in 5-10 business days after proof approval (larger builds may require longer processing times; rush services may be available).
We proudly service:
Kohala Coast resorts (e.g., Hapuna, Mauna Kea, Mauna Lani)
Waikōloa Village & surrounding resorts
Kailua-Kona and Keauhou resort region
Conference venues, resort meeting spaces, destination event locations
Being locally based in Kona allows us to have fast production and flexible installation across the region.
Proven experience with tight event timelines and coordination across resorts and venues.
Full in-house production means fewer handoffs, greater quality control, and faster response times.
Local knowledge of resort and conference-venue logistics (docks, freight doors, resort move-in/out).
Ability to manage on-site mounting, directional signage flow, and guest-experience elements across hundreds of signs simultaneously.
Transparent quotes and easy reusability for future events.
Q: Do you handle shipping to resorts or just Kona area?
A: Yes — While we’re based in Kailua-Kona, we regularly deliver and install signage at resorts up the Kohala Coast or down towards Keauhou. We plan logistics with you.
Q: What files do you need for artwork?
High-resolution vector (.AI, .EPS) preferred. Raster files (.PSD, .TIFF) are acceptable if at the correct resolution (300 dpi) and colour space. PDF is one of our favorite words; use these if possible. We can assist with cleanup if needed.
Q: How should I budget for event signage?
Costs vary based on size, materials, quantity, installation complexity, and the type of finishes. As a general rule, wide-format banners tend to a more cost-effective, while CNC-fabricated dimensional signage is generally more expensive. We’ll provide detailed line-item options for clarity.
Q: How far in advance should I order?
For standard prints and signage, please allow 2–3 weeks. For custom CNC, laser, or UV-printed rigid signage, or complex installation elements, allow 4–6 weeks, if possible. We often have discussions with incentive travel groups 6 – 12 months before the event. Rush options may be available — call us to discuss.
