NSW print and wrap specialist Killer Image has taken out the Ball & Dogget MetaWrap – Are You Australia’s Greatest Wrapper competition, for its Coopers Camo Truck job.

After receiving an overwhelming number of submissions from across the country, judges – Matt Horne from Wrap Studio, Dan Sefton of Metamark and Steve Warn, national manager - SAV & Heat Transfer at Ball & Doggett, had a tough time selecting the winner, eventually picking the Killer Images job after careful consideration.

Joel Goff, managing director of the Glenndenning-based business said, “I am shocked and amazed to have won. There are so many talented people in this industry, and it is nice to be recognised for our work.”

As the winner, Killer Image will receive a trip for two people to Fespa in Munich next month, including return airfares, accommodation and breakfast, $1000 spending money and entrance into Fespa Global Print Expo as guests of Metamark UK. Prize is valued at $7500.

Judge Dan Sefton from Wrap Studio said, “The winner impressed us with the exceptional design and attention to detail. The solution demonstrated a high level of creativity, innovation, and technical expertise, which not only met but exceeded our expectations. They put a great deal of effort into perfecting every aspect of their work.”

“Killer Image stood out for their exceptional technical wrapping skills, which were clearly demonstrated across the full truck wrap and the challenges met for the inner footstep” appreciated by Judge Matt Horne. Finally, Steve Warn added “The winning Wrapper stood out for its combination of creativity and practicality. The design and use of colour was both bold and cohesive, creating a visually stunning display. Overall, this installation was a true standout and a deserving winner."

The judges also gave a special mention to the businesses listed (no order) for their entries in this competition. Although they did not win, their “impressive achievements and standout installation” “wowed” the judges, who said, "We commend these businesses for their hard work and dedication, and we look forward to seeing their continued success in the future.”
