Design for Livingston businesses
Livingston was designated a new town in 1962 and became part of Silicon Glen, Scotland's electronics manufacturing boom. Several big factories have gone, yet industry stayed, joined over time by life sciences, logistics and retail.
Making things is still central. Mitsubishi Electric makes air conditioning equipment here, and Kirkton Campus, Houstoun Industrial Estate and Starlaw Park house engineering and technology firms. For them, the most useful design work is often technical: 2D drawings converted from old paper or PDF, 3D models for quoting, installation diagrams for manuals, and product data sheets that match across a whole range.
Life science and healthcare firms work under document control, so design files need clear version numbers and a tidy record of changes. Instruction leaflets, labels and packaging inserts have to match approved text exactly, which suits a careful, proof-driven process.
Logistics businesses on the M8 corridor need practical brand assets: fleet livery that looks the same on every trailer, warehouse signage, and tender documents that show capability clearly.
- Manufacturers: CAD drawings, data sheets, product photography
- Life science companies: labels, inserts, diagrams, decks
- Logistics and warehousing: fleet livery, signage, tender documents
- Retailers: posters, window graphics, social graphics
- Trade suppliers: catalogues, price lists, counter displays
Retail is a large employer, with the town centre and the Designer Outlet pulling in visitors from well beyond West Lothian. Retailers need seasonal posters, window graphics and social posts sized for every platform.
Consistent product photography is the thread that links many of these businesses. A manufacturer's catalogue, a trade supplier's web shop and a retailer's social feed all look better when every item is photographed in the same light and on the same background.

Frequently asked questions
Can you convert old paper drawings to CAD for a Livingston manufacturer?
Yes. dijitul redraws paper, scanned or PDF drawings as clean DWG or DXF files, and can build 3D models in STEP format where needed. We work remotely from scans and photographs with measurements. CAD conversion is charged at £45 an hour + VAT, with an estimate agreed before work starts.
Do you photograph products at Livingston factories and warehouses?
Yes. We bring a portable set-up to your site and photograph products on a consistent background for catalogues, web shops and marketplaces. Product photography starts from £25 + VAT per image, or from £295 + VAT for a half day, with travel from Mansfield added to the quote.
