World’s Largest Vehicle Wrap

SBR’s B-double has just undergone what could well be Australasia’s, and possibly the world’s largest vehicle wrap thanks to Roland DG, 3M and Queensland TAFE students.

Roland DG produced 450 square metres of printed vinyl to cover the entire truck. The massive task took three machines 55 hours to prepare, print and laminate the material.

3M also came to the party with latest digital graphic film, 3M Controltac Plus IJ180Cv2-10 and Scotchcal High Gloss Overlaminate 8518, to ensure a high gloss, wet paint look.

The B-double transformation, lead by Steve Lambourne’s team from Clegg Media, employed a total of 15 people, including seven sign writing apprentices from the Southbank Institute of Technology, to work on the 26-metre long truck and trailer at the same time.

The result of this enormous project is an amazing continuous mural showcasing SBR’s V8 Supercar Championship BF Ford Falcons, its two drivers and its corporate partners.

Business Manager of 3M Australia Gino Farina explains why his company became involved in the project.

“When the opportunity arose to work with SBR and Roland DG and align our activities with a project that was of benefit to all parties, including the community through the involvement of the TAFE students, we jumped at it.”

Roland DG Sales and Marketing Manager John Wall was just as enthusiastic.

“We have been working closely with SBR for three years and we are always on the lookout to showcase the quality and versatility of our product to the greater market. What better way is there to do that than on a four-metre high, 26-metre long moving billboard!”

Team Principal Ross Stone is thrilled with the outcome.

“We now have a race transporter that presents SBR and our corporate partners in a striking and professional manner.

“The truck wrap was a big undertaking for everyone, from the boys in the workshop who prepared the trailers right through to the team that worked on the wrap at the Brisbane Truck Centre.

“It is a fantastic achievement by all and a great credit to 3M, Roland DG and SBR.”
