SS Signs: Rapt about wrapping

SS Signs have partnered with Repco Supercars Championship team Matt Stone Racing. This relationship dates back to 2019 when SS Signs first became the official signage partner of Matt Stone Racing. Since then, both SS Signs and Matt Stone Racing have built a strong relationship that continues to grow year on year.

2022 has been very busy for SS Signs, who thus far in this first quarter alone have transformed the Matt Stone Racing factory with signage on all interior walls, supplied the team with new garage walling for race events, provided branded café barriers, corporate umbrellas, posters, and driver cards. More importantly, and more relevant to this column, SS Signs have wrapped 5 Supercars cars, stickered 2 prime movers with  B-Double, and a Semi-Trailer with their new 2022 liveries.

This entire process provides an opportunity for the forward-thinking company to engage their seven apprentices in the in-house development program. “As much as possible, apprentices are involved with the production, installation and management of the back end programme that is required to support Mat Stone Racing. Throughout the season, the team has the opportunity to travel with Matt Stone Racing and be part of the overall team at the track at the race meets” says Steve Lambourne, Director, SS Signs. 

For ten years, SS Signs has supported many race teams and drivers and, for the previous three years, has backed the Matt Stone Racing team and programme. “What we like is the investment and commitment to the up-and-coming drivers and development categories. It is great to see developing drivers like Arron Seaton mentored and supported by the whole team at MSR. This year with Todd and Jack signing up with MSR, has excited us as we have been involved with both drivers as rookies as they entered the Supercars category. The team has come a long way over the last three years,” comments Lambourne.

With such a comprehensive program spread across numerous categories, including Australia’s top motorsport category, Supercars, Matt Stone Racing certainly relies on SS Signs to get the job done.

The work doesn’t stop, with a 12-round calendar stretching across ten months, SS Signs need to work with the team at Matt Stone Racing to ensure all cars have fresh stickers applied for each round throughout the season.

These tasks see both parties work exceptionally close, particularly in the lead up to an event, working around each other and the cars to guarantee the task at hand is completed on time and ready for the cars to be loaded and transported to their next event location.

The team at Matt Stone Racing say the exceptional service, reliability and timely turnaround from SS Signs is like no other.

“The fact that SS Signs is a one-stop-shop for our team when it comes to Decals, posters, wall signage, backup painting services and corporate needs is great. No job is ever too big or too small, and the quality and constancy of their products and services are next level. SS Signs is a great partner that makes us look professional and great wherever we go!” Says Team Owner, Matt Stone.

SS Signs has been involved in Wrapping since its inception back in 2006 when Steve and Selina stepped out of the family business and started SS Signs and Vehicle Wraps.  Today they have contracts not only with Matt Stone Racing, but also with some of Australia’s largest fleet, and transport companies proved branding to all types of vehicles and trains. Even with a diverse team of 50 staff, SS Signs holds on to its core values and has not forgotten its history and roots.
