About Us – Urban Image Inc.

Over the last 10 years, Urban Image Inc. has re-defined the standards of quality in the outdoor industry in Puerto Rico by using products of the highest quality materials and production standards, providing the highest level of customer satisfaction and working with the local municipalities as well as federal agencies to guarantee that our products have all the necessary permits.

Urban Image Inc. has over 100 locations selected strategically along the municipalities of Carolina, San Juan and Dorado. Our “Mupis” as we call our outdoor advertisement panels, were designed by worldwide recognized architects in Europe and can be seen in some of the most important cities in the world such as Barcelona and Madrid. They were built under the premise of improving the current levels of visual contamination now present in your average outdoor advertising module while working as the perfect advertisement platform.

By advertising with Urban Image Inc., your products will reach consumers on the move like no one else can, thanks to the superior design of our “Mupis” that are not only beautiful to look at but also efficient and functional.

Management Team

Our Mupis were designed with the premise of having a visual and informational function for the community and not just the message of a publicity campaign. For example, our Mupis show the name of the street of their location, while our “Mupi Clock Towers” have clocks for the onlookers. Our Mupis are not just another piece of metal where advertisers can place ads, they blend with the city and provide a service.

The fundamentals behind the design of our products:

Service:

Every Mupi Model provides valuable services for citizen. Some units are equipped with street signals others serve as telephone booths and others have analog clocks. Our Mupis provide illumination of the highest quality for those walking the streets which help make the city more secure. Our Mupi Beach Towers provide comfortable work locations for the lifesavers the patrol and guard the beaches of the island.

Security:

All our designs incorporate high quality materials that do not have sharp edges that could cause injury to people coming into contact with them. In addition, the lexan covering that protects the artwork being displayed is similar to that used for automotive applications which can resist high impacts. Our aluminum structures maintain a neutral polarity and four additional security measures in order to prevent citizens from receiving any electric shocks. Our products have been designed taking into consideration the salinity of the environment, the possibility of hurricanes and storms as well as floods; simply put, our Mupis are the most secure in the market, there are no visible screws and special tools are used in order to prevent artwork vandalism.

Efficiency:

The most efficient advertisement is the one that reaches the largest number of potential customers at the minimum cost, while eliciting the desired response from the public. Our displays are a very cost-effective way for any firm to advertise a product or service; we have been awarded contracts with the local authorities in the areas we operate where we are the exclusive provider of outdoor advertisement furniture, we have carefully selected each one of our locations so that the ads of our customers are seen by the biggest amount of possible customers. Our Mupis are under constant supervision and a nightly field audit is performed to confirm that all of our customer’s artworks are installed in the contracted locations.

Embellishment:

Advertising must blend in with the surroundings in a harmonious way, at the same time it needs to stand out for by-standers and people passing by to notice the message being shown. Our clean and modern Mupis were designed to captivate attention.
