Four awards at the 2024 Sign & Wrap Awards!

We are so proud to have been awarded 4 awards at the 2024 Sign & Wrap Awards!

  • Gold for Ad Gefrin in Architectural
  • Gold for Leonardo Hotels in Rollout
  • Best in Show across 7 signage categories
  • Highly Commended for Sign Company of the Year

The Architectural award, as well as the Best in Show award, celebrated our work on the Ad Gefrin Distillery project which wowed the judges with its use of natural materials and its complex craftsmanship. This project included the production of a variety of interior, exterior, and wayfinding signage products that complimented the architecture and reflected the history of the venue.

The judges loved the way that we shared all of the processes of the project, including the stages that went into the production of the Ad Gefrin roundel. From CNC routing to copper spraying, this focal piece went through several processes to make it into the impressive emblem that it is now.

Our work on the rebrand of Jury’s Inn Hotels to Leonardo Hotels was also celebrated, earning a gold award in the rollout category. This extensive programme demonstrated our high-level knowledge of planning and logistical support, having overseen the transformation of 32 hotels across the UK.

The judges noted our attention to detail and the way they had gone above and beyond to deliver the project successfully – even producing a bespoke sample wall to show the client how the signs would look when complete.

Well done

A huge ‘well done’ to all the other winners and finalists and a huge thank you to the organisers at Sign & Wrap Awards for a fantastic night.

Most importantly, a huge thank you to #teamastley for all of their hard work and talent – it is thoroughly deserved and we are so proud!

They only went and won!

We had a fantastic night at the Make UK awards last night with both of our shortlisted apprentices coming away with awards in their respective categories!

A huge thank you to everyone at Make UK for putting on such a great event and we couldn’t be prouder of the lads representing our company!

We are proud to say we are now one of the first signmakers to be publishing a net zero roadmap with a commitment to achieving net zero by 2040.

Since embarking on our net zero journey in 2022, we have been committed to taking considerable steps towards reducing our carbon footprint.

With short term, medium and a long-term objectives, astley has developed a robust plan to help address climate change and drive meaningful actions that will contribute to the end goal of becoming net zero.

Just as we became the first UK signmaker to become a zero-waste-to-landfill partner, we believe we are also leading the way in our approach to becoming net zero and ultimately, improving the world that we inhabit.
