One of a Hat-trick of Wins Celebrated on the Night
The news is out! We are thrilled to have been announced winners of the Signage Company of the Year award at the 2025 Sign & Wrap Awards.
The accolade, one of a hat-trick of trophies received on the night (March 25), sees Astra Group recognised for its commitment to innovation, contribution to driving positive environmental change, and forward-thinking leadership and vision, for the betterment of the sign industry. It also acknowledges Astra Group’s investment in its people and future signmakers.
Speaking at the prestigious event, the judges said: “Astra Group sets the standard for industry innovation, quality, and sustainability. The business’s commitment to people is evident through extensive benefits and growth opportunities, all while continuously advancing processes and technology.”
Adding to the occasion, we were delighted to also be recognised for our work with Europe’s largest indoor arena, Co-op Live, taking Silver in the Best Architectural Sign category and Bronze for Best Interior Decor.
It brings the total number of accolades received for our work with the pioneering venue to three, with Astra Group proud to have also been recognised alongside Co-op Live in the 2024 UK Graphics Awards, in the Hospitality and Leisure Signage category.
Speaking on the awards, Astra Group CEO, Jim Kerr, said: “This is a significant win and one I am thrilled to celebrate with all of the team, without whom none of this would be possible.
“As a business, we’re committed to pushing forward, not only for our own benefit, but for that of our industry. We put our people and our values first whilst being just that little bit different. It’s fantastic to see this recognised and Astra Group announced Signage Company of the Year.”
Adding, on the business’s success in the campaign awards, Holly Watson, Head of Marketing at Co-op Live, said: “What a fantastic win for everyone involved! The innovative signage solutions Astra Group produced for Co-op Live went above and beyond, blending high quality design, craftsmanship, and cutting-edge technology. The final result is absolutely stunning and built to last. We’re so happy to collaborate and see the incredible work of the team recognised!”
The national awards, hosted at The Hilton Metropole in Birmingham, are the biggest night in the signage and wrapping industry calendar. They bring together signmakers and vinyl wrapping professionals from across the UK & Ireland to recognise and celebrate the very best of the industry.
