GLIMMA Americas successfully delivered the branding of a new 4-car Alstom train in the Dominican Republic, providing a comprehensive solution that included full vinyl wraps, branded graphics, and essential safety signage.
The project presented several unique challenges, with each of the four rail cars stationed on a platform with limited access, requiring our installation team to work in open, conditions navigating heat, wind and dust.
High temperatures posed an additional layer of complexity. Heat affects vinyl performance and can make application significantly more difficult, especially when working with large-format graphics that demand perfect alignment and durability. GLIMMA’s installation team used their technical expertise and extensive experience to navigate these challenges and maintain consistent quality throughout.
GLIMMA excels in global coordination thanks to our far-reaching relationships and skilled bilingual team who have a deep knowledge of branding and environmental installation challenges. Seamless communication was maintained across all stakeholders, from local ground crews in the Dominican Republic to client teams based in the U.S. and the U.K, ensuring alignment across all phases of the project.
By working closely with Alstom and project managers on both sides of the Atlantic, GLIMMA was able to coordinate timelines, align on brand specifications, and adapt swiftly to onsite variables.
Despite the logistical constraints and environmental challenges, the team delivered the project on time, with no compromise on safety or visual impact. The final result reflects Alstom’s brand identity with clarity and consistency, while meeting all operational and regulatory requirements for rail signage.
This project demonstrates GLIMMA’s ability to deliver high-quality, branded environments – even in remote or technically demanding locations. It’s a clear example of how our global reach, local insight, and flexible approach continue to add value for our clients in the transport and infrastructure sectors.
