Regional winners were chosen by an experienced judging panel made up of VISA President Mark Tailby, ASGA President David Hay, Roland DG Managing Director, Marc Margetts, Roland DG Sales Director John Wall, and Roland DG Business Development Manager Conrad Birkett. Each entry was judged based on three specific criteria – Creativity, Innovation and Execution.

“The quality of entries was generally very high, and I was impressed with what can be achieved with Roland devices,” said David Hay. “Everyone knows you can print a fantastic vehicle wrap with a Roland, but there were some other very unique and specialised applications that I never imagined would be produced on a Roland.”

The South Pacific regional winners are:

Regional Winner (1st place): White Law Bindery – Mahogany Room Menu Folder’
Honourable Mention (2nd place): Signs QLD – ‘Shane’s Autoglass VW Transporter’
Honourable Mention (3rd place): Signrite – ‘Holyoake Captiva’

Marc Margetts commented “Thank you to everyone who entered and shared their creative work with the world. Congratulations to White Law Bindery for their amazing ‘Mahogany Room Menu Folder’ that was executed perfectly and clearly demonstrates how Roland technology can work together to produce innovative and creative works”.

White Law Bindery have won a trip to Japan to compete against regional winners from across the globe for the worldwide grand prize – announced on the 17th April 2012.
