BJ Ball open new facility

bjball

November saw the opening of the brand new warehouse and head office of BJ Ball Papers New Zealand out in Penrose. The brand new building was officially opened by the head honchos from Australia and the evening was a very pleasant affair. GWDesign were invited to “do something cool” using floor graphics as the medium. We created a “timeline story” which was applied at the entrance way which showed the progress of the company from humble beginnings and shown on aged style paper, through to today with full colour productions. We also had the opportunity to wrap their BJ Ball sales vehicle which was a great talking point on the night.
